Florida Man With Weapons Cache Charged With Threatening Virginia Tech-Style Massacre

MIAMI (Associated Press) -- A 20-year-old with a weapons cache that included four AK-47s was arrested after threatening over the Internet to undertake a Virginia Tech-style massacre, authorities said Thursday.

Oregon authorities learned of a March 25 Internet message allegedly posted by Calin Chi Wong in which he threatened to re-enact the Virginia Tech killings. Two days later, Homestead Police searched the home Wong shares with his parents and found the weapons in stacked on shelves in plain view, Detective Antonio Aquino said.

Wong had 13 firearms in all, more than 5,000 rounds of ammunition, some that could pierce armor, and 100 rounds in a feeding clip with bullets "meant to take down aircraft or military machinery," Aquino said. He had hidden two AK-47s in his parents' closet, and his parents said the guns did not belong to them, Aquino said.

Wong was charged with making written threats to kill or do bodily injury via the computer and bonded out for $7,500. Additional charges are pending, he said.

Why does stuff like this keep happening?

I know it's going to sound like a condescending platitude, but it's a price of freedom.

Ask yourself what it would take to guarantee that "stuff like this" can't happen.

Then ask yourself if you'd rather live in a world where it can't happen, or where it can.

Where did he come up with the money for all that?

Where did he come up with the money for all that?

Start at the parents

"mom, dad, i want to buy these guns and all this ammo for range shooting"

I still maintain that the huge amount of press and attention these types of things get really inspires others who may have been angry fence sitters previously.

It's almost seen as heroic to the perps in their twisted minds because of it.

the age of 24 hr news has brought more than just information to our lives.
