NYPD Seizes Family Gun Collection

They're antique collectors, not thugs, says tenant of family caught with stockpile of weapons

Members of the Brooklyn family caught with a stockpile of weapons are antique collectors - not dangerous thugs, according to a tenant.

Tenant and longtime friend Michael Poole, 29, was initially busted along with Thomas Siano, 57, Kathleen Siano, 58, and their son, Vincent Siano, 29, and charged with criminal possession of weapons.

Police found 30 guns, seven knives and two crossbows in the living quarters of the Sianos' Gravesend home after executing a search warrant Friday, according to the Brooklyn district attorney's office. The charges against Poole, who rented space in the home, were dropped.

Stupid liberal media is as melodramatic and overreactionary as the the fascist NYPD.

YOU DON'T NEED A PERMIT TO KEEP AND BARE ARMS! The Constitution is your permit!

[Civiliansoldier762]

Fucking liberal bullshit. "Right next to a school" like the kids are in danger. obviously this was someone's private collection. None of those were even "assault " style weapons. I didn't think you needed a permit to own guns just to buy or transport them in the states with strict laws. What happened to unbiased reporting?
