What's infowars?
Website for tinfoil hat wearing nutjobs who think shootings like Aurora and Sandy Hook were carried out by the government in a secret plan to take their guns.
What's infowars?
So, let me get this straight: DHS raided a guy's home, and seizes his entire gun collection even though he didn't break the law? How is this shit legal? I thought it was "Innocent until proven guilty"?
What's funny about this story is that as an alleged gun smuggler this guy would technically be one of those "bad guys with a gun" most gun advocates are always talking about. If this guy sold guns he illegally obtained it's highly likely he would sell to anyone who wanted one, therefore also making it a possibility that he armed someone who could use the gun in a crime.
This is the kind of seizure gun advocates should be all about, but no "The government legally seized this guy's weapons for the good of the public? Outrageous"- Just because a gun seizure took place somewhere in America.

Here's a not well known fact: Back in the 60s, blacks had fought for the right to own and possess guns in the streets feeling they had to protect themselves from the police.
Then, the NRA supported Ronald Reagan signing the 1967 Mulford Act restricting people from carrying Firearms.
Because it violates the Terms of Service of Neogaf.why not post the whole article?
Interesting. Here's the guy's website. It's almost all antique collectibles.

Here's a nice Daily Show clip where Stewart shows how much the NRA and Republicans don't want to enforce gun laws and have set it up to where the ATF has like no fucking power to actually regulate guns. You can skip to the 2:30 mark if you don't have the full 6 minutes to spare.

EDIT: Blah, it cuts off before the segment is done for some stupid reason. Here's the second part where it really gets good:

I'd completely forgotten about this Brass Eye segment. Let's just say it's very relevant with any discussion of America's love of guns.
Feds seized nearly 1,500 guns in raid
