The would-be assassin who allegedly pulled a gun on Argentina’s Vice President Cristina Fernandez de Kirchner had 100 bullets stashed in his home when police raided it in the wake of the shock attack.

Fernando Andres Sabag Montiel, a 35-year-old Brazilian, was taken into custody after he was caught on camera pointing the loaded gun in Fernandez de Kirchner’s face outside her Buenos Aires home Thursday night.

I'm a bit surprised news of this has not already been posted.

When cops later raided Montiel’s residence, they uncovered his huge stash of bullets, police sources told local newspaper La Nacion.

Oh, good grief...

Kirchner IS dang lucky.

She's also corrupt and a disaster for Argentina, but, it'd be better for their legal system to end that, not an assassin to martyr her.

100 sure doesn’t sound like very much.

Basically, 2 boxes of ammo. That’s what they were limiting people to at the store during the ammo shortage …per caliber

Most US shooters have more than that in their sock drawer.

Gasp!!!! 100 bullets!!! Enough to make most New Yorkers lose bladder control immediately. About half what you need for an hour at the range

Wow, 100 bullets. That is, well, just wow. An incredible quantity. "A huge stash."

What would they call mine? Over 15,000 22LR and that is before we start talking about other calibers.

Well, there's his problem with the assassination failing! Mere bullets are harmless, unless you make the victim swallow them possibly.

Hmmm... Quite a bit of commentary online speculates this was staged to gain Kirchner sympathy.

It's not, unless ammo or that particular ammo is hard to get in Argentina?

"100 rounds" aka "1/5 of a brick"

Holly crap a 100 bullets? We’re they loaded in a cartridge with powder and primer? That’s huge! In my world a hundred round box of bullets cost around $30 depending on caliber and style. They’re cheaper if you buy in bulk. Then the loading of the cartridge starts. / s what a load of💩

I saw the video in Foreign news several times. Pretty alarming as he was at point blank range of her head. Gun jammed or she’d be no more now.

It only takes one bullet to kill you but 99 to make sure you stay dead!

The suspect, who only used 3 ounces of gasoline in his attempted vehicle-ramming attack, had 2.5 gallons of gas in his car's tank!

The woman who is accused of the stabbing was found to have 5 more steak knives in her house!

The golfer was found to have 29 golf balls in his garage!

The woman who splashed hot tea on a stranger was found to have dozens of tea bags in her pantry!

The man suspected of spitting his gum out on the sidewalk was discovered to have an entire pack of gum in his pocket!

And, quite frankly, given that Kirchner's political career/platform has consisted largely of distractions from domestic issues ("¡Los Malvinas son Argentinos!"), hand-waving distractions, and ginned-up outrage, is she lucky, or was this staged for sympathy and further distraction?

Not only that! He also had a pair of tweezers, one of those little sewing scissors, and a tiny bottle of shampoo in his home!

Man was obviously planning on hijacking an airplane!
