When they searched his car, they used his keyfob to unlock it and doing so caused the parking lights to flash.

Gotta get him on something...

I'm surprised that they even included the fact that the suspect was never a danger to AF1. I'm sure after an indepth media blitz, he'll turn out to be a member of one of those white Nazi supremecist Tea party Hitler militias, and he even owns a (gasp!) automatic assault machine gun.

If he had at least two boxes of ammo in the car, that would make it an "arsenal."

Since the article sucks we need more info. If he was someone packing his handgun to fly then the charge is BS. If he pulled out his gun and aimed it at AF1 and said "I'm gonna kill you oblamamama!" them maybe, and I do mean maybe he could be charged.

breaking news: last time Obama was here I was twenty miles away packing a gun. It was a keltec 380 which at that range could or could not have any relevance to Obama being within the state borders. A policeman saw me carrying it and thought "look at that bazooka, Id arrest him if he was 18 miles from the president but since he is 20 Ill just keep an eye on him" The public and the police officer were so terrified of me they pretended not to give a shit that I had a gun and pretended that only a fucking retard would possibly connect my firearm with the president being somewhere at some given time out of the range of my firearm.

Thank god nobody noticed my right wing terrorist militia pro reagan anti obama stickers on my back window. Swat team would have had to be called in for that one.

Former Line Service (airport ground guy for those that don't know) guy here.

In my direct experience with Secret Service, airports, and presidents/ex-presidents, if this guy was ANY threat they would have dealt with him. Its the local LEO's on scene that act all high and mighty running around staring at you with a hand on their damn gun. Trying to prove to the S.S. that they are some rockin barney badass that will gun you down if you don't comply with their screams. The S.S. guys are cool as shit till its business time. They'll even work with you a bit if you can point out flaws to their planning.

Test run for a false flag attack on the US president coming to a state near you!

Prepare to turn over your guns.

Was there signs posted stating "The Pres is here, don't bring your guns?"

I don't know about NC, but in FL its legal to have a firearm at the airport 'common areas' like parking lot and even the non-secure areas (anywhere outside of the TSA metal detector gates)

We don't have open carry, but we still have the ability to carry them in that area. Seems to me that unless you have some warning that the Presidents plane is nearby, you can't be charged with any 'crimes' related to the proximity of it.

I'd maybe guess a range card (distance card, Spotting card, MIL conversion chart, ect) typically used in long distance shooting?
i guess it would be hard to describe if you had never seen one before.

Fox has a longer article and Pic's, no link necessary its front page stuff . . . .

Two years ago, almost to the day Obama was on the campaign trail and at the local high school - right across the street from me. We didn't realize what was going on until we were driving past it with 4 AR's, a bolt action .308, 5 handguns, and an AK in the trunk. Yeah, good day for a range trip.

"Oh shit second" doesn't even begin to describe it.

"Going armed in terror of the public?"

sounds like a "gotcha" NC law.

Also... is NC an open carry State? I'll bet it is. Or else they would have charged him with unlawful carry of a weapon or whatever NC's version of that is.

Yeah, NC is an open carry state.

"Going armed in terror of the public" is the BS gotcha law in NC that people get charged with when they don't really have anything to charge them with. I guess there could be appropriate uses of the charge, but it does get used as a gotcha catch-all.

That said, if the guy intended harm to the POTUS, I hope he gets put away.

Conversely, if he was an unlucky innocent, I hope it gets cleared up soon.

So I guess they'll call in the mind readers and let us know.

I find it hilarious that the board LEOs (God Bless them) never, ever, get into these threads and go "wtf?" even when it's obviously a blatant, bullshit, lets lock him up and then figure it out deal such as this. Hell, I ALMOST would expect a few of the more liberty loving to at least say something like "well, with the info at hand it would appear that this is really bullshit, especially filing such a useless, catchall charge". Says alot IMO.

Well thay could be waiting to get all the facts. LE is funny like that . . . .

BTW just flew last week with a handgun and it was a non issue other than screwing with the TSA at Sea-Tac.

The probablity of hitting any plane with a HG is NIL, so no charge should stick EVEN IF he did that.

Now a .50 caliber - we all know they'll take down planes like RPGs

Yeah, you're right... Wasn't in the way, it was on a public sidewalk, took 15 steps back when they told me to, people were walking on the sidewalk in between myself and the officers, and yet I was the one who gets arrested.
