21. Are there many gun dealers licensed...
to keep high explosives in the bedroom of a house in a residential area? Or are you overlooking this fact in your zealous attempt to defend gun rights?

I support gun rights! I only pointed out that the other poster was not saying the dealer deserved to be murdered but that guns do not confer safety, just as you yourself said above!

Anyway, back to the article:

Police found the stockpile of weapons, including live bombs, neatly stacked in the bedroom. Several of the more dangerous pieces were taken to a landfill to be detonated.

About 10 homes remained evacuated Monday because of fears the bombs might explode, and Army weapons experts were being brought in to analyze the weapons and explosives, police Lt. Ron Daugherty said.

There were probably more than 400 pieces of weaponry in his home, including rocket-propelled grenades and 40-mm rounds, Seminole County sheriff's Sgt. Ralph Wilson said.


Are you seriously trying to tell me that anti-tank rockets can legally be stored in suburban homes? So if this guy was storing highly dangerous explosives (how many soldiers have died in Iraq because of RPG's?) in his HOUSE, then he HAD to be a criminal.

I really think this is the type of guy gun rights advocates should NOT be supporting.
