I have a hunch that the People in Red China can’t buy stuff like this for their personal use.
They would have to find someone that knew shooting beyond kicking up dirt in front of them.
A scope does not make you a Carlos hathcock.
No, but it is also unwise to underestimate the enemy.
If he says he got the fireworks to celebrate Biden victory they will let him go.
“Not too many gangbangers use scopes..”
coyotes do.
I’m always suspicious of a seaside 30yo that has more guns than grandpa does. I mean, they could be for use against sharks and such...As we’ve seen over the summer, fireworks have been used as a diversionary tactic and a weapon. Calif only allows ‘safe and sane’ fireworks and then only under license and only for a limited time for sale and not stored in residential neighborhoods. ‘Super Cans” and “Nightmares’ don’t sound very safe or sane. He’ll probably have worse charges on the fireworks than on the guns.
Bet you Gascon doesn’t even charge him.
Pre-Boom
Don’t know anything about the fireworks but what was illegal about the firearms? The 2nd Amendment is for everyone.......
So did ktla just rat this guy out? He’s arrested and then there’s a bust THAT afternoon?
Yes asap
