    He said Bryan Malinowski collected guns and other weapons, as well as coins, lived in an upper-middle class suburb and earned $253,000 a year.

    “When someone makes that much money, there’s no incentive to do anything wrong,” the brother said. “He has so much to lose."

    His brother seems willfully ignorant here. Plenty of millionaires and billionaires commit crimes for more cash.

    Retracted: There was a piece of the story I missed which kind of destroys my complaint here. Missed it when I read originally.

    I feel like you don’t really need to show up at 6 am to serve a search warrant. Making a commotion and trying to barge into someone’s home when they’ve just awoken is kind of a recipe for them to make bad decisions. If you need surprise to make sure they don’t destroy evidence, just get them when they’re out of the house. Wait until he goes to work, then send the crew to the house and a couple agents to his work to serve him there and escort him to the residence? It might take a little longer to figure out when the house is empty and you can secure it, but it means fewer people get shot.

        This can happen when the PoPo roll up with a warrant and decide to just barge in without announcing themselves. I’m not saying it happened like that in this case but there’s plenty of examples out there.

        Do not trust the BATFE or their version of events. Ever.

      Also, he ended up with a bullet in the head. 😶

      “We don’t know if he’s going to make it in the next 24 hours," Matthew Malinowski told NBC News by phone in his first public comments. “He was shot in the head.”

    Sounds like he took at least one shot at the ATF which goes a long way to explain how he got shot in the head…

      Looking at him? CSAM.

      (yes there is a phenotype)

      But reading the article it’s an ATF response so probably ‘scary guns.’

      That said… I’ve definitely seen gun weirdos who were also CSAM weirdos…

        That “(yes there is a phenotype)” is just like when people say that the covid vaccines are poison and follow with “yes, there is proof”. Produce proof that doesn’t stink of confirmation bias, make me a believer.

        Because honestly, I have seen so many confirmed pedophiles thanks to my former line of work, and most of them would shatter your view for that so-called phenotype.

        And if we are just going to point at men with no chin, lack of facial hair and an androgynous/somewhat effeminate body fat distribution, we might as well just incarcerate people for being born with Klinefelter syndrome, dumbass.

        I don’t know what a CSAM weirdo is, but they can’t be worse than people who use obscure acronyms without explanation

      I would guess weapon/drug trafficking? Airport exec, ATF and the guy likes guns anyway…
