I don't need the 15 guitars and basses I have, but yes the **** I do.
This is a different kind of collecting, though. They have those weapons because they are paranoid. They aren't collector pieces. This is at best hoarding, and more likely they are cosplaying Jesustard ISIS.
I admit I didn't read the article. Unless you're moving from state to state, it's really not that difficult to stay current with licensure once legally acquired, so I have little sympathy for those who end up arrested.
But whether it's some rare show-piece gun, "just another" handgun or a fancy new AR-platform weapon, I just can't bring myself to crap on collectors. Even collectors of things I do not get, like guns.
Like I said - I have a lot of basses. None of them are showy. They're all boring, utilitarian basses, none of which cost more than $1500.
I gotta little bit of smoke and a whole lotta wine...
Gun collectors are a thing, but I would say ever since Ruby/Waco and with almost everyone in America now having Internet access, there have been an ever-growing number of radicalized nutballs who believe they are stockpiling for CW2/The End Times.
You folks also have to get a better handle on the whole civil vs. criminal liability piece.
But since your Thought Leader got confused a few pages ago on this issue, and clearly doesn't grasp the difference, I don't expect most of you to get it, either.
If you think you're PO'ed now, just wait & see how the Chauvin-Floyd thing goes down in MN ...

I read the whole complaint. I don't think it is going to work but I find their position to be rather creative. They are basically saying Cameron threw the GJ under the bus at the press conference and because of that and the outcry over the non-indictments the court owes it to the people to allow them to see the whole truth. It would appear they didn't like that McConnell's stooge sidestepped all responsibility and blamed them. Even brought up that could lead people to judge the GJ unfairly in light of what is going on. (IIRC)
Again it won't work (at least not in full, I believe some of the transcript is being released) but I think whoever came up with the argument did a solid job. I await unofan's thoughts. :-)

Of course I'm a fan of the Vikings. A sick and demented Masochist of a fan, but a fan none the less.

It's over criminally, it's over civilly (the family of the murdered Taylor settled with the police), but it's definitely not over in the media or the minds of millions of people. Nor should it be.

It’s gonna be real interesting.
the troll trying to interpret what comments mean isn’t going well

Actually it doesn't have to be over criminally. A prosecutor can still bring charges. They won't but they can.
Poor Chuckles...his insults always sound better in the original Russian.
