>> The Virgina man who made national headlines for alleged possession of assault rifles and other apparent weapons of terrorism ...

Not that this guy shouldn’t be in jail for a long time — he tried to knock over a store — but are “assault rifles” a “weapon of terrorism”?

>> [...] of attempted armed robbery, 2nd degree; possession of a firearm for unlawful purpose, 2nd degree; unlawful possession of a rifle, 3rd degree (2 counts); possession of a defaced firearm, 4th degree (2 counts); possession of hollow nose bullets, 4th degree; and possession of large capacity magazines, 4th degree.

What is a “defaced firearm”? Hollow points and large cap magazines are illegal in Va?

A .223 Bushmaster converted to .50 cal? I’d be scared to pull the trigger on that. Maybe that’s why he didn’t use it when he had the chance. Didn’t know that magazines and hollow-pionts were illegal.

FYI: The accused was pleading insanity, supposedly a paranoid schizophrenic... looks like no one bought it...
