Collector only

A collector "aggressively waving a four-and-a-half foot long sword at someone in the street."

Yes, sure ... just like I'm Tarzan (or is it his monkey...?). How about this lunatic collecting some jail time instead?

Story:
UK -- Police seized a cache of medieval-style weapons from a Carlisle bedsit after a man brandished a Chinese sword in the city center.

Aglionby Street was brought to a standstill at teatime, after witnesses reported a man aggressively waving a four-and-a-half foot long sword at someone in the street.

He was taken to the city's police station, where he was given a police caution and released.

A spokesperson for the force said: "The case was investigated and when all the facts were considered, this was deemed to be the most appropriate course of action. He is a collector. He has agreed to let us dispose of the weapons. We do not think it is appropriate for this person to have them in his home."
