An “arsenal” of weapons can mean a whole lot of things to different people.

You've got that right. My three handguns qualify as an arsenal to my liberal siblings.

This guy is another one of those "he only had one ticket" guys. Link to MD Court cases search, here.

Time to round up everyone who only has one ticket!

“...I wonder what they consider an arsenal?...”

In Maryland? It could be a BB gun and 5 tubes of BBs.

>> typically, mass shootings are done by white guys

Because when black and hispanic guys do it, it is called a Drive-By or “gang violence”.

When a muslim guy does it, it is called “definitely not terrorism”.

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

Because, we never get to hear the whole story, especially when an “arsenal” is found; and the motives of the police in a virtual police state always need to be viewed with great suspicion by freedom-loving people.

Would his name happen to be Abdul Farnsworth or is it one of those wacky Amish guys?

A my name is Abdul
and I come from Anne Arundel
and my hobby is my arsenal
and I - am - Amish!

Ok, wait. His name is Neil Prescott. Sounds like a Bush to me, maybe two of 'em!

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

Search the engraved place cards at a Bush family pique-nique!

When mass shootings are performed by anyone other than a white guy, they media doesn't show it.
I bet this guy is a registered Democrat, loves Obama and his regime and what's to help Obama take our weapons away. Just a thought.

” It said he ‘Called his employer and threatened to shoot people’. That is a great way to land in jail without accomplishing anything.”

I’m surprised there aren’t more nutjobs who freak out over losing their job. Glad there aren’t more though.

” 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.”

Typical anti-gun media bias.

It doesn't matter if he had a hundred. He can only use one at a time. I heard that he had two handguns and a few thousand rounds of ammunition.

Personally, I’m just glad this fish-eyed fool was stopped before he did his part to give all gun enthusiasts a bad name.

Maryland “Freak State” PING!

Slingshot? - Pea shooter? Daisy BB gun? - Benjamin assault air rifle?

If it is Abdul or Mohammed ..then it would be just another case of “workplace violence” regardless of who he shot, where and when.

Please define my” Glock, 51 caliber Muzzle loading Semi-auto rifle” with 5, 37 round Banana magazines? It also has a scope and a bayonet lug.
Nancy Grace would adore it.

Only if you can define my Saturday Night Special semi-automatic .39 caliber revolver military-style assault rifle with belt fed banana clips that can spray millions of rounds of deadly cop killer bullets at 25 year old gang member ‘children’ without ever needing to reload.

partial picture of the "arsenal." A few rifle barrels. Not sure what they fit. Two assault Mausers.

You forgot to say if it was a Glock or a Uzi. Although it may be one of those home made Zip guns. I found one similar to yours in a lake in North Florida,.Never could find the Freeper who lost it.
Mine was made in 1855 by my GGGfather for the rebellion. He name it a Glock because that was my GGGmother’s maiden name.
Nancy Grace and Chuckie Schummer would classify such items you and I have as “Kid Killers”

Looks like a couple of assault Mosin-Nagants...the barrels look like alternate uppers for the AR on the left side of the pic.
