Allrighty then. This guy (former police officer) just said that.
Been out the side of my head keeping an eye out on that serial killer story recently arrested in Gilgo Beach Long Island. But like really? Come on dude you can be a gun nut but this is not normal.

Note: He gave no proof or evidence that those guns were even in the safe, he just speculated ... oh boy. Geesh ... whatever.

Not linking the podcast on youtube ... guys pretty up and up but this shit ...

On Edit: not Florida ... but N.Y.

1. News Reports say...

He had a massive vault in the basement with a huge bank-style vault door.

8. Which is a responsible way to store a collection of firearms.

Any vault can be defeated with enough effort, correct tools, and time, but it sounds secure.

10. And yet, he registered 92 guns but not the rest?

No one needs that many guns. No one.

[Straw Man]

12. In NY State, only handguns need to be registered.

Not long guns, unless they were designated as "assault weapons" in the SAFE Act of 2013.

2. Context?

Original story?

[Initech]

3. This is what happens when AM radio hosts amp up America's gun lust.

And then present thousands of fear mongering stories to throw fuel on the fire.

4. It's Gilgo Beach, Long Island.

7. Oops yeah sorry ... Florida just been pissing me off lately too. lol n.t.

5. Three or three hundred, you can only use two at at time.

[Hugin]

6. One at a time...

If you're not throwing bullets and instead, y'know, aiming.

[SYFROYH]

9. Sounds like a gun collection and he kept them secured.

I get it that this guy is a monster (allegedly), but people collect firearms like anything else.

The description of his gun vault sounds secure.

You are correct that this is not the norm.

[NoMoreRepugs]

11. Sounds like a guy with a microscopic u know what.

13. It's not normal, but then, rich people can afford to do "abnormal" things.

Is it "normal" that Jay Leno has a warehouse full of rare cars?

I don't see the relevance of the gun collection. Did the guy shoot his victims?
