A California Superior Court judge arrested last week has now been charged with killing his wife in front of their adult son at their home. Court filings reveal the judge had over 47 weapons and 26,000 rounds of ammunition in his home.

A hobby he killed his wife with because it’s a hobby that appeals to shitheads.
At least we agree that it’s mostly the shitheads that are the problem, not so much the hobby. I’m pretty sure this shithead would have killed his wife if his hobby was hiking or cosplay too.
Ever hear the story of the nuclear boy scout? Now thats a hobby no one should be allowed to have.
You can wax hypothetical about what abusers would have done, but they overwhelmingly use guns, since they’re great for threatening people or executing them in an instant with a slim chance of survival or intervention.
well yeah, they’re literally designed to do that.
Shitheads get into all hobbies. Some hobbies are more dangerous than others, and need more safety than others.
You know what’s a dangerous hobby that ALSO appeals to masculinity-troubled people? Modding cars to go faster and drift harder. You can tool around in them legally and if you drive like a shithead you can drive through a crowd. Modding pickups is also a big shitwaffle magnet. Still a hobby.
I avoided the whole “are guns the problem” subject in my comment for a reason. My comment served to illustrate that collecting large numbers of “Object” is a hobby. Whether or not the hobby is good, or bad, or dangerous, or safe, was not my comment.
Again, using hypothetical other people to dodge what this person did: executed a family member with a legal firearm.
No, it was a correction of how people collecting guns is not like collecting the same toaster over and over, more like different toasters, specifically not addressing anyone’s use of them.
But you’re specifically asking people to not treat gun collectors like toaster collectors.
If someone had a collection of 50 toasters, people would find that weird, but generally harmless.
But if that person then claimed to not be even slightly interested in toast, that would immediately set off warnings in people’s head.
Why would they collect so many toasters if they didn’t like toast? It’s what toasters are for. Sure, they could maybe find some off label use for them, but that still makes it a weird choice of hobby.
I’d definitely think they were much more interested in toast than they let on and if they were one day caught eating toast with a full erection, I wouldn’t be even slightly surprised.
