This makes me sad. When I first saw the article, I thought it sounded like it was loaded down with guns but still, it's not a proper way for a gun to leave this world.

Talk about villainizing guns and ammo again. So what. A trailer burned on the side of the road. I noticed they failed to mention the propane tank built into the trailer that would have made a real boom if it got hot enough. Oh yeah. Carrying an oxygen and acetylene torch set in the truck? That was glazed right over.

I was thinking no big loss until I read " additionally the trailer also contained ammunition for a .22 rifle." Holy smokes that's like losing Gold!

Gawd. I use that word a lot lately. It's a shame it's so appropriate.

Seriosly that was way more public than a boating accident.

The 22LR ammo was worth more than the camper. I can see the insurance company trying to replace the ammo. I'm sorry sir but we are unable to find the ammo for you.

My thought was, how long was that trailer burning before help arrived if he had time to cut it free with a torch??

I suppose it was actually a trailer carrying firearms, but it ain't what the headline wanted me to believe. Sensationalism at its best.
