"Authorities also seized a number of as-yet unidentified pills."

Hey, hold muh ecstacy while I throw this grenade.

""Authorities also seized a number of as-yet unidentified pills.""

If that goes as these things usually do, they siezed a bottle of aspirin.

Hmmm... Giannoni ?

Maybe this guy is mafia - He sure has the right kinda name. I'll bet he was selling the stuff on the black market. (Ragheads?)

Sounds like the feds did a good job. I'm pro-gun all the way, but why does ANYONE need 600 grenades?

At first glance, I read this as "Grenade, gun stockpile lead to charges on Ebert".

Roger Ebert being arrested for a gun and grenade stockpile would have been most entertaining.

what I want to know is, what was the illegal activity that caused the FEDS to get a search warrant in the first place?

this article sucks because there is no details. then more articles, with still no facts.

pathetic!

Little study in bias here. From the first article:

Grenade, gun stockpile lead to charges in Elbert

An Elberton man faces charges that he illegally stockpiled 600 hand grenades and more than 30 rifles and handguns in the basement of his Stoney Creek Drive home.

Note how the writer keeps mentioning the guns, in order to connect them to the grendes, to try and re-inforce notions that owning a lot of guns is illegal. Also notice the hallowed gun-grabber term "stockpile."

Now, the second article posted:

600 grenades seized; Elberton man charged

A northeast Georgia man was charged Friday with unlawful possession of weapons after 600 hand grenades and materials for explosives, ambush devices and booby traps, including trip wire, were found in his home basement...

Notice, no mention of guns here. No attempts to connect the guns to the actual illegal stuff, the grendades. A much more honest article...

Ping.

Here's a guy in his 40s ... and he only has 30-odd guns.

What in the world has he been doing all these years?

Now, ya know this guy has to be guilty.
