Why do so many comments seem to glibly pass over the fact that someone here threatened to kill people, and pillory the police instead?

Have we figured out whether he’s Tea Party or OWS Black Bloc yet? Obviously HAS to be one or the other...
To: Strategerist
three 9mm handguns, a .357 revolver and several other rifles and shotguns. Betting the rest were hunting rifles or some such thing. Any AK or AR would be reported as "numerous assault rifles."

I wonder what they consider an arsenal? What ever I have next to my bed.

No, but now he is reported (same article - constantly updated) to have uttered something about “The Joker” when threatening to shoot up his co-workers.

Then say ‘Twenty firearms’ unless you are certain that there are twenty guns.
All guns that use gunpowder are firearms but not all firearms are guns.

Have they linked the Amish or the Tea Party yet?

Which Amish? The genuine religious counterpoint, or the strange version of color?
No, it’s neither.

My own personal opinion is that most people think of an arsenal as a stores room where a militia would go to arm up when hostilities were about to break out.
Individuals have gun collections. They don’t have arsenals.
That’s not to say that an individual couldn’t develop their own arsenal, but that generally isn’t the case.
Of course the media is playing word games again, trying to demonize anyone with the audacity to own something more than a clothes-pin match-stick shooter.

He had a good “minimal” collection there, to be sure.
I’d recommend those to someone who asked what firearms they should buy.
A good .22 rifle would be a must in a minimal collection, but that wouldn’t have served the purposes for Holmes.

Living here all my life, I wouldn’t say that. I don’t recall too many stories, either.
In any case, clearly this dude is a nutcase who deserves to be taken down. I don’t focus on police for that.

His name is Neil Prescott... ABC is frantically searching all Tea Party listings for anything remotely close to a "Neil Prescott".

“I wonder what they consider an arsenal?”
More than one gun and more than one box of ammo for them.
A brick of .22 LR gets reported as FIVE HUNDRED ROUNDS OF AMMO pant pant, and a spam can of 7.62 AKS ammo is even worse.
