    I never understood why you need that many. Like in one location. Like are you opening a store? I recall the 1 guy had a bunch of guns so he didn’t have to reload. But like 100s? You cant carry that many. Literally more guns than blades of grass on lawn.

      If you believe the propaganda that Democrats want to take your guns and were on the verge of a civil war, then it makes total sense.

      I mean, you’re not going to use all of them at once. Maybe you have your everyday carry pistol, and a few more pistols that you like to shoot. Maybe you have a few rifles dedicated to hunting for the family. Maybe you have a few rifles that you shoot at the range for fun. Maybe a machine gun or two just to have one.

      Hang on, that’s still less than 20.

      Maybe he collects them?

        Do you think he also collects explosives? Because they found those too.

            Well now I’ll be disappointed if they don’t find a wooden sign with “YIPE!” printed on it.

      You drastically underestimate grass.

      But he could just be a collector. Maybe he likes war movies or action movies and likes collecting the same ones that they used or built in the movies.

        The south west is a red/orange desert of death with few patches of green. Nothing you say will change my mind! Fake AI video news! Seriously though, I was Mostly referencing: "There would be a rifle behind every blade of grass” attributed to Japanese Admiral Isoroku Yamamot in ww2. First thought I had when I saw 120 guns confiscated. Murica!!! Yeehaa!!!

        I gonna cast doubt on collecting as a form of Fandom but I will welcome being wrong.

          Oh good point. From a glance at the article, it looks like they mostly have appropriate potted plants, so yeah probably not much grass.
