I think they were trying to be a white supremacist version of Bonnie and Clyde. Lucky they were caught. Unluckily, not soon enough.

Not sure that the pawnshop chap was a conspirator. We will find out. But setting aside whether it is legal, perhaps he thought that lending money in exchange for weapons and ammo was a commercially grounded activity. ie he was just trying to make a buck and was willing to use weapons as the collateral in his transaction.

That may violate a law, but without involving him in the criminal activities of the two killers. He leant them money and removed their weapons, and not vice versa. In doing so, he actually made them less of a threat rather than more.

As shooters go, losing access to one's arsenal suggests both lack of planning and desperation.

400 Rounds of Ammunition Found at Pawnshop Connected to N.J. Killings
The police arrested the owner of the store in Keyport, N.J., on criminal weapons charges.

When David N. Anderson carried out a deadly anti-Semitic terror attack with his girlfriend in a kosher deli in New Jersey last week, he had a phone number and an address written on a note tucked into his back pocket.

The note, which the police found during their investigation, led them to a pawnshop almost 40 miles south of Jersey City, the site of the shooting. On Friday evening, they searched the store and found 10 guns and over 400 rounds of ammunition. The shop’s owner, Ahmed A-Hady, 35, was arrested early on Saturday morning on criminal weapons charges, federal authorities said.

Later on Saturday, according to officials, federal authorities recovered a white van 11 miles from Jersey City, which they believe may be connected to Mr. Anderson and his girlfriend, Francine Graham, who participated in the attack.

The developments came as New Jersey residents continued to grapple with the deadly rampage last week that left four people dead and turned a quiet city street into the scene of a prolonged firefight.
