“Nothing at this point in time would tie this to any specific threat or anything else at this point,” Hank Shaw, special agent in charge of the FBI’s Boston division said at a press conference on Sunday.
The missing weapons were entered into a national database, and federal, state, and local law enforcement have been alerted, according to the agency.

awesome!
I am so glad there we have our "undocumented immigrant" problem taken care of. Otherwise this could create a problem.
Where else can we get weapons that can defend us against the government thugs? They're not at Gander Mountain!
Good thing they're in the same National Database that the stupid shell casings were in for 15 years that failed to solve ANY shooting. Makes for a great recipe for the future...
Cameras?
Last time I was in a National Guard armory, I was with my father. He was the units Armorer, and the safe where the units weapons were stored made a bank vault look like child's play to break into. Whomever did this either brought a torch, had access to keys n codes....or brought explosives. The last two would be my guess as time would be a factor due to alarms...unless those were disabled. Either way....experts.
Scores Killed, Hundreds Injured As Para-Military Extremists Riot.
BOSTON, April 20 - National Guard units seeking to confiscate a cache of recently banned assault weapons were ambushed on April 19th by elements of a para-military extremist faction. Military and law enforcement sources estimated that 72 were killed and more than 20 injured before government forces were compelled to withdraw.
Speaking after the clash, Massachusetts Governor Thomas Gage declared that the extremist faction, which was made up of local citizens, has links to the radical right-wing tax protest movement. Gage blamed the extremists for recent incidents of vandalism directed against internal revenue offices.
The governor, who described the group's organizers as "criminals," issued an executive order authorizing the summary arrest of any individual who has interfered with the government's efforts to secure law and order.
The military raid on the extremist arsenal followed wide-spread refusal by the local citizenry to turn over recently outlawed assault weapons. Gage issued a ban on military-style assault weapons and ammunition earlier in the week. This decision followed a meeting in early April between government and military leaders at which the governor authorized the forcible confiscation of illegal arms. One government official, speaking on condition of anonymity, pointed out that "none of these people would have been killed had the extremists obeyed the law and turned their weapons over voluntarily."
"Government troops initially succeeded in confiscating a large supply of outlawed weapons and ammunition. However, troops attempting to seize arms and ammunition in Lexington met with resistance from heavily-armed extremists who had been tipped off regarding the government's plans.
During a tense standoff in Lexington's town park, National Guard Colonel Francis Smith, commander of the government operation, ordered the armed group to surrender and return to their homes. The impasse was broken by a single shot, which was reportedly fired by one of the right-wing extremists. Eight civilians were killed in the ensuing exchange.
Ironically, the local citizenry blamed government forces rather than the extremists for the civilian deaths. Before order could be restored, armed citizens from surrounding areas had descended upon the guard units. Colonel Smith, finding his forces over matched by the armed mob, ordered a retreat.
Governor Gage has called upon citizens to support the state/national joint task force in its effort to restore law and order. The governor has also demanded the surrender of those responsible for planning and leading the attack against the government troops. Samuel Adams, Paul Revere, and John Hancock, who have been identified as "ringleaders" of the extremist faction, remain at large.
Al Qaeda, IsIs or both. Be prepared.
inside job
Inside job of course , reserves are crooks and thugs without ethics.
Interesting tidbit, Worcester has had the highest immigration in the state of Mass. in recent years. So there's that too.
After a long and expensive investigation, it will be determined that they left the armory unlocked and unattended
Another interesting tidbit, right down the road from the armory, is a mosque with an interesting history. A member of it was arrested in 2009 for plotting to shoot civilians and military members with automatic weapons, but could only procure semi-auto handguns.
with surveillance cameras turned off....smdh
But hey remember, you gave up your freedom to be tracked and watched and spied on, and these dumb fucks can't even secure a building with guns in it, and they want gun control on the average citizen because of a few nut jobs... Then you have the cops who argue that we shouldn't judge them based on a few bad cops, yet they judge US all as criminals based on a few crimes other people have committed...
Do you people fell safer now? was your rights worth the safety? Well wait until the refugees get here form Syria... See how safe you are with Muslims able to run around doing was they please...
Some Junkie in the unit sold them. The guard needs to drug test. Most would be kicked out. There are some true soldiers in the guard. Then there is that segment. Need I say more.
Amen. And we are supposed to be able to own the same weapons our military has to be able to fight them if possible.
