I've seen modest gun cases with more shite in it. ATF would have a cow if they saw my neighbors shop.

The article actually did that. I recommend reading it.

quote:

Graff had constructed the bunker on wooded land along the river that was owned by a local college, Fox 6 Milwaukee reported.

quote:

The criminal complaint says Graff had been living there for about seven to ten years, according to the paper.

I assume you're implying trespass, which he was doing, but in most cases a person arrested for trespass in an unoccupied area like that are first given a warning, told not to return, and if they do then the arrest is made. Article didn't mention that, but I suppose it could have happened and was just left out of the piece.

Eh he was living on property owned by a college and fired shots. That’s likely why he was in trouble.

If he did this on his own property then he wouldn’t be arrested


And yea that’s not an Arsenal I have more guns and ammo in my bedroom closet

Yea I don’t get why they’re illegal. They are pretty much useless unless in very close range.

It really doesn’t make any sense when you can legally buy a pistol like The Judge that shoots shotgun shells

Looking more closely at the local news article on the matter, it says he was arrested for possessing a "short barrel shotgun" and also what amounts to discharging a firearm in city limits.

May've had a sawed off.

Edit...late

Why the scope, tho?


He probably hunts for his food. I figure a scope would come in handy for that.

If he was black and living in a tent in those same woods and this happened the left would be outraged .... or, better yet, lets say he was black and on a track of land where developers wanted to build new residential housing.

Wanna know how I know how that would go? Because I am fighting it on a piece of my property right now .... where a bad crowd decided some years ago they were going to use the back wooded part of the property as a short cut and hang out.

Cops can't do anything .... fences and no trespassing signs keep getting torn down and cut through, and now I have them on video.

Cops do ride through the back part where the curb and gutter crews are working .... but they don't even try to clean out the woods.

This guy was taken down because it's up north right? He's white and it's college property and everyone knew beforehand that no one would run to his defense or protest his arrest.

That's what the guy really did wrong. Other than that he's doing nothing more than living some peoples' dream .... hidden away from society and basically left alone to his own devices.

ETA: The mugshot is classic LEO propaganda and they absolutely meant for it to depict him in a particularly spooky/scary fashion.

Next the locals will be down at the jail house wanting to burn the poor man at the stake.

It's most definitely an inflammatory piece, in my view anyway. They describe it as if they'd found the unabomber.

Another "crazy white guy with a gun" trophy for those who get off on that stuff. Not that I know with any degree of certainty, but my gut tells me the guy was no more or less a threat than plenty of others living their daily lives amongst us. Just trying to live.

I mean, is it illegal to be an eccentric? I'm sorry, I thought this was America.
