Full Title Was: Police arrest man with 47 guns after threatening to 'kill as many people as possible' at ANOTHER elementary school at the SAME TIME as Connecticut massacre
An Indiana man with 47 guns and stocks of ammunition was arrested after threatening to go into a local elementary school and 'kill as many people as he could before police could stop him'.
Von Meyer, 60, was arrested on Friday after his wife called Cedar Lake police after he threatened to set her on fire and continue his violent spree by attacking a nearby elementary school.
The loaded threat came the same day that a young man killed 20 children and seven others in Newtown, Connecticut.
When police arrived at Meyer's home, they found 47 guns and ammunition, the sum of which cost more than $100,000.
'Through investigation, police learned that Meyer reportedly had a large number of weapons hidden throughout the two story historical home,' the report states.
The makes and models of the guns have not been released, but many of them were said to be historical collectors items.
Meyer allegedly said that he was going to light his wife on fire once she fell asleep. His plan didn't end there, however, as he set his sights on the Jane Ball Elementary School which is less than 1,000 feet away from his home.
The police report states that the school is easily accessed from Meyer's home by a series of trails and paths that cut through a wooded area.
Officials at Jane Ball School were notified, and they immediately took unspecified security measures.
The same happened at all local schools on Friday because of the threat, which was undoubtedly heightened as news rolled in of the shooting in Connecticut.

A Bartlesville High School student is in custody on charges he plotted to bomb and shoot students at the campus auditorium on the same day that 28 people were shot and killed at an elementary school in Connecticut.
Police arrested 18-year-old Sammie Eaglebear Chavez at about 4:30 a.m. Friday after learning of the alleged plot Thursday.
An arrest affidavit says Chavez tried to convince other students to help him lure students into the auditorium, chain the doors shut and start shooting. The Tulsa World reports that authorities say Chavez threatened to kill students who didn't help.
The Bartlesville Examiner-Enterprise reports Chavez planned to detonate bombs at the doors as police arrived.

This inclues the mall in Portland, the loon who fired his gun 50 times in the air in a mall parking lot yesterday, and the two separate shootings in Alabama. I did a search and didn't see anything. I'll post a separate article on that.
Manchurian candidates for a Reichstag fire? The man blamed for that turned out to be mentally retarded, IIRC.
I wonder if this end-of-the-world stuff next week has caused people who were on the ragged edge, to finally go over.
Dude has a serious knack for bad timing.
Far, far too coincidental...this and all the other similar events over the last four years.
Should be a law for a mandatory life sentence without parole for anyone making such threats.
Better not happen...I bought myself some cool tools for Christmas.
Agreed. This idiot is a true gun “nut”. Hopefully he’ll enjoy several years in the can, and all of his $100K “collection” is melted down for scrap.
That’s an interesting thought you’ve raised. Maybe....people can certainly be kooky, to put it mildly.
Personally, I would expect a rise in suicides, or even a mass suicide, but you never know.
Instead of going over the edge, I am trying to empty my liquor cabinet before 12/21/12.
Heaven forbid that someone gets a hold of my Laphroaig Quarter Cask.
People need to turn off the 24 hour cable news shows with the cool graphics and funeral dirges playing all day long and go out for a walk in the woods or something. I know a lot of people in the country are depressed that we’re going to have another four years of Obama but the copy cat BS is getting out of hand.
Why was the thread I posted on the Alabama shootings deleted?
Wall-to-wall media coverage, along with saturation internet talk, gives the nutters their chance at the limelight. Schools need to enlist some protection from the community to make sure these fools get their wish of getting their heads blown off if they they try something stupid.
Not to mention the Johnny Jihads that now see an opportunity to reek chaos so close to Christmas/Mayan Calendar End Times.
When the 2nd plane hit the South Tower, did you doubt it was enemy action?
The Feds are making their move against gun owners.
Winter and these holidays.
The combination makes a lot of people crazy, including me.
While I would never shoot anybody who was not a threat, I deal with the rest of it by becoming a hermit from November to May.
24/7/365 media coverage is to blame, IMHO. It’s giving all those nuts a way to go out in a “blaze of glory”.
A lot of the way you may feel has to do with our programming to go into a kind of hybernation. Think how grumpy a bear is in winter...
These events are happening too often to be coincedence. Something is going on...I have a bad feeling that a a shooting is going to happen that so sickens the nation that the public “demands” Obama do something drastic. If it’s not this it will be something similar I have a horrible feeling that Obama’s Inaguaration speech is going to be the Marial Law/end of the Republic order that many have feared. I pray I am wrong.
