Why on earth would they assume otherwise?
When would the biker who owned it have had time to bury anything without being noticed?
Why would anyone go to the trouble of burying a weapon somewhere where they might need to get to it in a hurry? I mean if the guy's plan was to beat a path to the burial site with a shovel, why couldn't he just continue using the shovel that's already in his hand instead of hassling with digging something up?

Dunno, maybe one of them just has a thing for burying weapons in the front yard before he or she sits down to eat, but the idea of a guy pulling up on his bike and then burying, well, anything, really, seems a bit far-fetched.

Other weapons include knives, brass knuckles, batons, tomahawks, weighted weapons, a hatchet, stun guns, bats, clubs, a machete, a pipe, an ax, pepper spray and a chain.

“Some were found using metal detectors as they were buried beneath the grass in the dirt,” the release said.

Our feared battle cry will be one of my Dad's Engineering Battalion marching songs from WW2, sung to the tune of My Bonnie Lies Over The Ocean:

Some day I will say o'er the ocean,
A dirty old foe I will see,
I'll pull out my slide rule and slay him,
With the cosine of A minus B!
I'm in. When's the first meeting? I don't own a motorcycle, but I have a slide rule app on my phone.

Twin Peaks... Tilted Kilt... Hooters... There are reasons I don't visit places like this and I am glad that carries me forward to this day. I had a friend talk me into going to a Hooters once a long time ago. Worst hamburger I have ever attempted to eat.
Didn't really care for their wings, either.
