A Pennsylvania doctor with an assault-style rifle and a handgun told an acquaintance that he was driving to see the president and that he had survival supplies, multiple cellphones and enough ammunition to make his car resemble Oklahoma City bomber Timothy McVeigh “on a camping trip,” according to charging documents filed Thursday.
Bryan Moles, 43, was arrested at Trump International Hotel in downtown Washington on Wednesday and faces charges of unlawful possession and transportation of a firearm. He was not licensed to carry a gun in the District of Columbia, which has strict gun laws, authorities said.
A District of Columbia Superior Court judge on Thursday released Moles on the condition that he stays away from the Trump Hotel and the White House.

How much ammo did the terrorist bomber carry on an average camping trip?
Yes, that’s rather idiotic and not helpful at all. Glad nothing happened.
1. Nutball.
2. Any laws against “keeping” and “bearing”, even in the Holy District, even as a nutball, raise my hackles more than the nutballery.
The reports I've read said the guy only had 90 rounds.
Many, many sources say 90 rounds. I know people who misplace that many in their pickups.
90 rounds? SSHHHIIITTT.......that’s nothing.
Ridiculous, there is no effective way to continuously surveille a Time Lord.
Tom Baker for the win. Woot!
