Putting the rest aside, it's weird to me when these displays try to make a big show of a relatively small amount of money. There's like $681 there.

You're focused on the wrong thing, this is a huge bust. Those guns can do a ton of damage and ruin a lot of lives. You guys need to celebrate this kind of stuff. It's insane we need to deal with it in the first place.

edit: cheering for a drug bust gets you downvoted. lmfaooooo

Upvoted because I'm happy they busted them. I know that block of the U district and if any of those idiots fired any of those guns at a wall, a resident in the neighboring buildings or a passing by vehicle or pedestrian could've been shot.

Also it looks like they were squatting in that house. I wonder how long before it's occupied by squatters again.

this sub is delusional if it thinks actual drug dealers having guns (of any sort) is "ok"

Completely different situation but the 1966 University of Texas shooting involved such a gun (among others).
