There are a lot of WTFs in this article.
http://www.latimes.com/local/lanow/la-me-ln-weapons-station-arrest-20170621-story.html Sheriff’s deputies approached a man who was urinating on a planter Wednesday at a Pasadena transit station and made an alarming discovery. In his duffel bag, the deputies found a cache of weapons, including a loaded AR-15 semiautomatic rifle, a handgun, rope, a machete, two loaded 30-round magazines, several rounds of loose ammunition and a notebook with unidentified writings, according to the Los Angeles County Sheriff’s Department. The handgun’s markings indicated it was restricted for those in law enforcement or government, officials said. The deputies quickly arrested Christopher Harrison Goodine, 28, at the Sierra Madre Villa Gold Line station shortly after 9 a.m. Goodine was taken to county lockup, where he’s being held on $10,000 bail, according to jail records. Investigators were still looking into Goodine and his plans. At a news conference Wednesday afternoon, Sheriff Jim McDonnell said there was no evidence of a link to terrorism, and he credited deputies with averting catastrophic violence. “For these deputies, just another day … looking at the small things that end up turning into big things,” McDonnell said. “There but for the grace of God, we could have had a tragedy today here in Los Angeles.” The deputies — who provide security to Metro’s bus and rail lines across the county — had been on patrol at the sheriff station. They were driving away when they spotted the man, later identified as Goodine, urinating in public. “We don’t know what could have happened if he wasn’t taken into custody,” McDonnell said. Goodine is a resident of Union City, Ga. A man with the same name was arrested in 2015 after he walked into the Waldorf Astoria hotel in New York, wearing a bulletproof vest and a ski mask, DNAInfo reported. At the time, New York police described him as a “quasi-homeless” man who had brushes with the law in Virginia, Georgia, Florida and Washington, D.C. Goodine is scheduled to appear in a Pasadena courtroom Friday, according to jail records. It’s unclear if he is being represented by an attorney. |

"We don't know what he was going to do, but we stopped a tragedy."

In just about any other state that's a pretty weak loadout for a trip to the range.

"Two loaded mags and some loose ammo"
Those are rookie numbers, you need to pump those numbers up! |
|
So he had a police trade-in Glock? Are there handguns with "LEO/MIL only" engravings like the older 6920s?
|
|
Ooh! A Glock "restricted to law enforcement"
Turn 'em in folks. |

Last week enroute to South Dakota to shoot prairie dogs with a buddy we had 4,000 rounds of .223, 100 rounds of .22 magnum, 500 rounds of .22Lr, 200 9mm, 100 rounds of .40 s&w and 100 10MM. For firearms we had 5 AR-15s, my bolt .22 mag, a bolt .22lr, my 9mm and 10MM Glock, his 9mm, .40 and .380 SIG. I wondered the whole trip what would happen if we were pulled over in one of the various cities we had to pass through!!! I wondered if we would be on the news!!!LOL

Why the fuck would a Hi Point have "restricted" markings on it? No .gov agencies use that shit.
|
|
If he wasn't driving through the night wearing a diaper and carrying duct tape and directions to a love rival's house, the rope means nothing.
|

Can we restart the discussion to before he pissed in the planter box?
|
|
Whatever the world may think of me, I want one of those machete sword things.
|
|
So you are telling me that he had a rope and a notebook. Holy Zues . He was urinating in a planter appreciate his courtesy of not urinating on the train like everyone else.
|
|
Couple of Mag Lite suppressors, huh? Neat.
|
|
|
|
Before clicking on the pictures, I guessed an M&P 9 or an EOTech. I wasn't even close.
|
|
|
I'm just impressed someone managed to make threaded barrels for a hi point.

“For these deputies, just another day … looking at the small things that end up turning into big things,” McDonnell said.
They nabbed the Short Dick Bandit? Is that what he's saying? |
|
And THIS is why I suggested in the other thread that we might not want to encourage "them" to label things like the GOP baseball shooting as "terrorism." Nutty? Probably. Terrorist? Highly unlikely.

"a notebook containing unidentified writings"
Who writes this shit? |
|
Funny how actions that are perfectly legal in some states will get you thrown in jail in others.
Mind boggling, really. |
|
I find it very curious about the Suppressors... and his "manifesto".
