Alexis_J_M 4mo ago (Not me, but...) A fish processing plant in Vancouver was shut down. The crews just ran the last cans through the line, shut it down, and walked away.

godbullseye 8y ago A cousin of mine owns one and the guy who rented it was 4 months behind so it went up for public auction. They crack that bitch open and find a small armory with automatic weapons and even a couple of pipe bombs. Не calls the police who show up and diffuse any of the bombs and start running the numbers on all the guns many of which were illegal in the state and some reported stolen. Guess this guy was stocking up for the race Wars and ended up in jail for an extended stay and
