What kind of goof would try this???

https://www.theguardian.com/us-news/2021/jan/16/washington-man-arrest-fake-inaugural-id-loaded-gun

Officers in Washington DC arrested a Virginia man who tried to pass through a Capitol police checkpoint carrying fake inaugural credentials, a loaded handgun and more than 500 rounds of ammunition.

The man, identified in court papers as Wesley Allen Beeler, was driving a pickup truck with several firearm-related bumper stickers, including one that read: “If they come for your guns Give ‘Em your bullets first,” the papers said.

The Wesley Allen Beeler story has already been corrected. It seems his pass was legit. It’s just that the guard didn’t recognize it. He had guns and ammo because he has a job in DC as paid security.
Not sure the clarification will ever make the rounds. The poor guy’s reputation is shot.
