The man, identified in a search warrant, told a supervisor at software and mailroom supplier Pitney Bowes that, 'I'm a joker and I'm gonna load my guns and blow everybody up,' and that he wanted to see the supervisor's 'brain splatter on the floor.'

The threats were made multiple times in separate phone calls this week,

The first pic said it all. Stupid internet ninja deserves what he got.

Nice guns.

Wonder if the reporter and his editor thought that was a long range sniper pistol.

The arsenal of weapons included one assault rifle, two shotguns, nine handguns and three rifles, according to the search warrant.

Wow... did they even look at the photo? They probably pegged one of the mosins as the "assault rifle"...

these reporters should crack open a dictionary once in a whilel
An Arsenal is where guns are made.
Place where you store them is an Armory.

I hate it when I see shirts/bumper stickers/whatever, with those kinds of messages. It's cool and just for fun and all, but a lot people will use it against you when the time comes.

Being that so many mosins were issued and used in war zones odds are that the mosin is the only one in his collection that was used to "assault" anyone" :s0112:

So... From what I have just read, this man has not broke any laws yet is being detained!! (Not that he has been very smart about it) Messed up! held in jail for a crime he has not yet done.. That is a crime in and of itself. The Police seem proud to display this act of crime and the general population will applaud the illegal actions of the the police... Sad days ahead..

The threats he made are in fact a crime.

Exactly - Terrorist threats (exact name of charge changes a bit from state to state) - essentially if you make a credible threat to do harm to someone and have the means to do so it is a felony. so if you tell someone "I'm gonna beat your azz" it generally isn't a felony - possible charge of "assault" which in most states oddly enough does not require physical contact. If you say "I'm going to take my shotgun and blow your / his head off" and you have a shotgun (even if it is not with you at the time) and it is reasonable for the person who hears the threat to believe you are capable of and intend to commit the crime then you get a nice new felony on your record.
