"The ammo could have exploded and shot all over," McGovern said. "If it got hot enough and the gunpowder ignited, the rounds would have become projectiles shooting out of the home."

Yeah, and the the gasoline in the cars in the garage could level half-a-block too if it ever exploded. Or the natural gas used in the oven, furnace, and cloths dryer.

What a lame statement, but i see where this is going - now the government is going to take your guns away from you for your own protection.
