somebody got busted bigtime in berkeley.

Federal agents seized a major arms cache that included explosives, machine guns, assault rifles, and tens of thousands of rounds of ammunition discovered as Berkeley firefighters battled a blaze in a 3027 Adeline St. liquor store early Wednesday.

And a 178 Plant marijuana Grow.


Sounds like a pretty nice gun collection.

Leslie Tanigawa forgot the first rule. Only commit one set of felonies. Guns or Drugs... play with both and you'll go down hard.

We've yet to see if the firearms were truly illegal. We all know that news reports can be skewed, and that the "machine guns" could simply be pre-2000 legal AK variants or AR variants. Plus, the Barrett isn't necessarily illegal even if it isn't registered yet as the .50BMG registration isn't yet due.

We'll see how it plays out, but I really hate all the bad press with regards to the firearms aspects of this incident.

I want to get the number of that blonde holding the machine gun. I wonder if she's ATF or LEO

Yeah, she DOES look pretty hot in the photo.. although it's hard to tell as the pic is so small.

If they need somewhere to park that 1919 I can make some room in one of my safes.

It would look killer on the roof of your Astro Van!

Oh yah, she's hot. But the pic wouldn't load for some reason. Had to use cached copy on google.
Tanigawa sounds like Japanese American, are there any pics of him?

Tanigawa sounds like Japanese American

Tanigawa-Smith sounds like japanese-american. Tanigawa sounds Japanese.

I think the AstroVan is the wrong place to mount that 1919.... Better would be a camo-painted V8 Gremlin!

And that blond chick is definately one hot LEO.

A 50-caliber Barrett sniper rifle, which fires slugs capable of killing at ranges of more than a mile.

I dont think that's been confirmed either!
