http://www.nypost.com/p/news/local/manhattan/harlem_gun_nut_arrested_0zJcckiqf84mPaVHaUcNXKA former Wall Street analyst threatened to go on a killing spree in Harlem, but was busted with an arsenal of weapons after a family member called cops, sources said.
William Greene, 35, could have done a lot of damage with the collection of guns he kept inside the stately brownstone at 137th Street where he lived including an AR-15 assault rifle, which is the same gun used in last Julys Colorado theater shooting.
Cops went to the home at 6:45 p.m. Friday after the tip from Greenes kin. He soon admitted to having the guns and ammo in his possession.

That's really great to know about the AR15. Had it been a real assault weapon in Aurora

If the two firearms are anything other than a Ruger 10/22 and a Smith & Wesson .38 Special revolver

The appropriate reaction from the gungeoneers should have been "good".
