Federal agents on Wednesday morning hauled more than 120 firearms, including “machine guns,” out of the Ahwatukee Foothills home of a man suspected of shooting at a campaign office for the Democratic Party three times and posting bags of white powder labeled as poison near political signs.
Jeffrey Michael Kelly, 60, was arrested on Tuesday night near his Ahwatukee Foothills home by Tempe police who, according to court documents, used surveillance footage to find the suspect.
While I generally agree with the sentiment… The type of person to shoot up a political campaign office is a threat to their community and shouldn’t have access to firearms.
What are the odds that he had “hundreds of firearms” properly secured? I highly doubt all of these weapons were properly secured with locks, in a safe, etc. and not at risk of an unauthorized individual gaining access to them easily.
Kind of a pointless thing to say, unless you have some breakthrough methods of how to identify the type beforehand…
