Joseph Rubino: Man arrested with large stockpile of guns, grenade launcher and Nazi paraphernalia
,
The Independent•August 21, 2019

Had Joseph Rubino not wrecked his car, he might still be living with a house full of guns in New Jersey.

But on the morning of 24 July, Mr Rubino was driving his white Chevy van on Route 517 in Allamuchy, New Jersey, when he lost control of the vehicle and slammed into a tree, seriously injuring himself and a passenger.

When officers from the New Jersey State Police began extracting him from the wreckage, they noticed something unsettling in the van: a stockpile of assault weapons and ammunition.

In a subsequent search of his home, police said they found more than a dozen other weapons, drugs and a box of neo-Nazi paraphernalia.

Mr Rubino, of Lafayette Township in Sussex County, was charged on Tuesday in federal court in Newark with unlawful possession of a firearm, along with several drug offences.

In addition to the large collection of weapons found at his home, law enforcement officers discovered 3 kilograms of marijuana, 70 grams of methamphetamine, and boxes of bumper stickers and clothing with SS bolts — “common white supremacist and Nazi symbols,” prosecutors said.

Officers also found a document labelled with a racial epithet “containing racist material and purporting to be an instruction manual for owning a slave,” prosecutors said.

Why Mr Rubino kept such a large arsenal — a collection the police say included semi-automatic handguns, shotguns, rifles with scopes and a grenade launcher — remains unclear. But the arrest comes as the nation is already on edge after a spate of recent mass shootings, at least one of which was inspired by racist hatred, and the arrests in the past week of three men who authorities said were planning attacks.

Rise in domestic terror arrests linked to white supremacy, FBI says

On 3 August, a gunman opened fire in a crowded Walmart in El Paso, Texas, and killed 22 people; the 21-year-old suspect wrote in a manifesto before the attack that it was motivated by “the Hispanic invasion.”

Less than a day later, a man killed nine people in 32 seconds in Dayton, Ohio.

Late last week, police arrested a 20-year-old man near Youngstown, Ohio, after he threatened to shoot up a Jewish community centre. In Norwalk, Connecticut, a 22-year-old was arrested after he began collecting weapons for the purpose of committing a mass shooting, according to the police. And in Florida, a 25-year-old man was arrested after police said he sent a text message expressing a desire to “break a world record for longest confirmed kill ever.”
