I can’t help but think that this story is missing some information:

In Jamestown, police say one resident had enough firepower in his house, to equip a small army.

Officers confiscated somewhere between five hundred and a thousand guns from the home of 63-year-old Thad Schank. He faces a weapons possession charge. Police also say one of Schank’s weapons was stolen a couple months ago, which means it’s somewhere out on the streets. When police realized just how many guns Schank had, they decided to get them out of his home, so that no more guns would end up in the hands of criminals.

So, someone may steal your guns, so we’ll take them from you. A weapons possession charge? I’m not sure about Jamestown gun laws, but is possessing guns a crime?
