Guns Found, Stashed In Several Places Along Potomac In D.C….

Is this for real or is it more fake news? It's getting where you can't tell what's real or not anymore. I sure hope it's fake. If it's not........................oh my, oh my, oh my.

Apparently this happened two weeks ago. So why wasn't it on the national news? Something seems fishy about this.

Because it didn't rise to the national news level. It was the lead story on the DC stations.

Because weapons are always being found here and there around DC.

Yeah, unless Trump is going for an inaugural paddle I haven't heard about, it seems unlikely there is a connection.

DC has hundreds of gun murders, if they found guns in D.C, it isn't news. Finding a stash of guns in a place like Tokyo or even Dhaka, Bangladesh were gun murders are much rarer would make national news over there. Between this post and the Op's someone probably got shot in D.C.

Posting from a news source called Weasel Zipper and asking if an article has credibility.

There was a cache of several firearms, I don't remember now what type or if that was even mentioned, a week or ten days ago along a little used area near the C&O Canal.

There is absolutely no inaccuracy about that no matter the source.

I didn't get it from weaselzipper. I saw it in the Sacramento Bee. However, when I googled it, a couple hundred pages from different sources came up. I do think it originated in the DC news sources first. So, smack your head a few more times.......it'll feel really good when you stop.
