Details are still scant, but…
“I mean, he had a lot of ammunition in that house, and certainly … all of us were strapped, you know, with ammunition, and we were calling for additional ammunition,” Kraus said. “Like I said, we tried to give him every opportunity to come out.”
…I’ll go way out on a limb and suggest that this could’ve been handled better.
I meant more generally, arguing rent over ammo or other relatively inexpensive (vs rent) wants. Sorry I didn’t realize this particular individual seems to have been avoiding rent rather then unable to afford it.
My bad.
Even if it was an issue with being able to afford it instead of avoiding it, hoarding non essentials while you’re struggling to pay for essential needs is fucking ridiculous, sell that shit, keep a roof above your head.
Well part of my point is that ammo is very cheap. 1000 rounds of 22lr is like 100USD. Even 1000 rounds of 5.56/.223 (AR-15 ammo) starts around $500. Hence why I compared it to lattes and avocado toast. Cutting all that out doesn’t fix the cost of housing or slumping salaries.
Im speaking generally ofc, idk how much ammo this guy had. But more ammo than you could fire in 6 hours is cheaper than youd expect.
