As long as he’s part of a militia, its OK.

Impossible!
There is a gun ban in Washington D.C.
That prevents exactly this type of crime.

Kooks are little threat. I seem to recall a Kook coming within a half inch of putting a .22 slug through President Reagan's heart.

Or, a convenient setup with the DC gun case appeal coming up.

Hmmm ... I wonder if this was a plant just to show why DC needs a gun ban.
