San Francisco Police displayed an array of high power weapons and ammunition Wednesday that were found in a homeless man’s car last month in Golden Gate Park.
Officers had prior contact with the man, but Chief of Police Greg Suhr ended up defending his department even though the suspect got past them with a large amount of weapons.
KCBS’ Jeffrey Schaub Reports:
SF Police Chief Defends Officers After Homeless Man With Cache Of Weapons Slipped Through The Cracks When police found a huge cache of guns, knives, a shotgun, 5,800 rounds of ammunition and camouflage gear in Robert Johns’ car on July 21st it was thought they may have diverted some kind of planned attack.
Also in that vehicle was a list of names of political leaders, reportedly including President Barack Obama.

Check your dictionary. For some reason many, many Freepers cannot differentiate between "loose" and "lose."
I was just making an example. With his kit and his skills this guy might have been dangerous to random passers-by (although I doubt it-he was probably just scared and taking precautions), but there’s no way to construct a credible case that he is a potential assassin. The cops are laughable.
Agreed.
It is San Francisco, Kalifornia after all.
If the cops were describing it as "sawed-off," they are incompetant in addition to being silly.
Yes.
Could be a Browing clone. It looks like it is hammerless or has a shrouded hammer. Someone mentioned Stallard Arms. That would be more like something you’d find on a homeless guy.
Good grief! That is a truly a meager amount of ordnance.
Actually, I was making a joke about the guy’s name, but I’m old, and this was a hit by Robert Johns a long, long time ago:

Yes as many have said most take more to the range. Of course the guy is homeless so mabye he sold the rest.
So it’s illegal for a homeless man to own firearms?
not a flare, a Leinad Cobray 410

Were the names on his list all Sarah Connor?
To all who read my initial posting...Please correct the spelling of “looses” to read “loses”. My critics have addressed this as well.
Indeed it is.
Well, it is Obamaland now.
