The indoctrination is working well.
"Guns are bad. Anyone with a gun intends to harm you. Report any guns you see to proper authorities. They will ensure that you are safe"

I've been doing it wrong all these years.
Whenever I go see my family, I'm "concerned" that they *don't* have weapons.

I dunno. Maybe cause when you talk to people they decide you are a threat to them and they call authorities for no reason?
I'm "elderly", at least by most people's definition.
And I don't say shit to anyone I can't stand or find totally useless. Total gray man.
Does that make me a "threat"?
This country is totally screwed - definitely the fUSA. It's a frickin' pansy farm.

I want to get one of those bomb casings and make it into a weathervane.
I am so very worried for the future of this one great Country
Everybody's a fucking moron.
So he minds his own business, and doesn't gossip, which according to the liberal fucks = 'he must be dangerous', MUST 'red flag' him!!!!
YEA, and .gov is wondering why we "don't trust" red flag laws!!!

My wife told me to practice that more.
Society has become stupid. The cops & media turns these seizures into a shit show. portraying they did something great for the community. Meanwhile all they did was steal an old man's vintage rifle collection.
People collect coins, stamps, paintings, vtg toys, baseball cards, cars/ bikes, etc.. For the pansies, this is ok.
But when they come across a guy that collects firearms. it's an arsenal. WTF !!
I would bet the "family member" that called the cops was anti-gun. The old guy wasn't bothering anyone. enjoying his collection until the family member made a mess of everything.
Yep, the red flag law is just the govt's way of getting around the 2A.

So did they take or are they keeping all his stuff?
I really like watching some of these pansy type cops when they carry the guns out of the house. They carry them, ever-so-carrfully, like they are going to go off or explode.
I hope this old Namy gets paid for all of this illegalness!
Due the town, the police, the judge, the hospital, the news channels and all of the neighbors.

I wonder how much the cops paid for this involuntary "gun buyback"? Did they pay market prices for the real collectibles?

At this point in time is there much of a difference? This could drag out for years and he could be dead well before that!

I hope the family member that caused this is out of the will.

Yeah, modern news reporting sucks. Who, what, where, when, basic shit they omit all the time, never mind effed up spelling and punctuation.

Well kinda, yeah. Did they just display it all, realize it was nothing then give it back, or did they seize it?

It looks like all bolt guns, or did I miss a couple milsurp semis? And all the bombs are inert, which PD bomb disposal knows damn well. Nothing he had was illegal to own. I hope he raises hell and gets his shit back. Every piece!
His neighbors are dumb fucks, and so is his family!

LOWER GWYNEDD, Pa. Police say the weapons are collectibles.
Police: Family worried after finding military weapons in elderly couple's Montgomery County home
LOWER GWYNEDD TWP., Pa. (WPVI) -- Family members helping an elderly couple clean out their home became concerned when they discovered multiple military ordnance items and firearms inside, police said.
The Lower Gwynedd Township Police Department responded Thursday afternoon to the home on the 400 block of Houston Road.
"While most of the items were collectible in nature, extreme precautions were taken in removing the items from the home for safe disposal," police said in a statement.
Police said the Montgomery County Sheriff's Office Bomb and Hazardous Device Disposal Unit, FBI, ATF and Department of Defense all responded to the home per proper protocol and procedure.
They said the home took several hours to clear.
"The family has been cooperative and there are no pending criminal charges at this time," police said.
From Chopper 6, authorities could be seen carrying out dozens of rifles, boxes of ammunition and even an array of bombs and mortars - much to the shock of neighbors who said the home belongs to a Vietnam veteran.
Authorities set up tables to catalogue all the material removed from the home. One of their SUVs was stuffed with rifles they removed, cases and cases of ammo and even a couple of swords.
The Wissahickon Fire Company, Community Ambulance Association of Ambler and the Plymouth Community Ambulance Association also assisted.

Damn! I hope the owner sues the ass off of everyone involved! That's the only way to stop this shit short of actually distributing these weapons to the local militia. Maybe that's his case, that he was the armory for the local militia, and by confiscating these weapons they are interfering with the constitutional rights of the local militia, and this is akin to the British marching on Concord.
No comment needed on this^^^, kind of 'self explanatory!!!
Apparently the Army, Navy, Air Force and Marines were all to busy to show up and 'assist'!!
OH MY GAWD, say it isn't so!!!! NOT SWORDS!!!!!
No shit Sherlock!! BUT, be careful of the whole; "AT THIS TIME", caveat!!

What did he do wrong, be old?
Was this a warrantless search ?
Was there any due process before his property was stolen by people who swore the same oath he did to protect his liberty?
Dunno the whole story but this is fucked up .
I see a bunch of criminals in uniform those cops should be ashamed of themselves .
