It's a PROP you fucking idiot. It wouldn't support any weight at all. Clearly you have never built anything in your pathetic life.

Very poor rebuttal but keep trying.

Miles away. No guns anywhere near the capitol. Deflect all you wish. The facts are simole, no one has been charged with insurrection, because there was none.

Lonnie Coffman, who brought guns and Molotov cocktails to D.C., told a staffer for Sen. Ted Cruz that he wanted to "help with the election fraud he saw.”

A fanatical Donald Trump supporter who parked his truck full of weapons in Washington on Jan. 6 and then joined in the Capitol mob while carrying firearms because he believed the then-president’s lies about a stolen election pleaded guilty to two counts on Friday.
Lonnie Coffman of Alabama, an Army veteran who served two tours during the Vietnam War and was described by one family member as “a hermit,” pleaded guilty to a count of possession of destructive devices ― 11 Molotov cocktails ― and a count of carrying pistols without a license during a virtual hearing before U.S. District Judge Colleen Kollar-Kotelly. He will also enter a guilty plea for possession of destructive devices in Alabama. Coffman will give up all the weapons he brought to D.C. as part of the plea deal. Coffman admitted in his statement of offense that he was knowingly carrying two loaded firearms around D.C.

Coffman was arrested in the District of Columbia on Jan. 6 after he approached officers in an attempt to get to his Red GMC Sierra, which was inside a police perimeter. Coffman had parked just off the U.S. Capitol grounds, near the Democratic National Committee and Republican National Committee buildings, which had been targeted by a pipe bomber who still remains at large.
After they shut down the area because of the pipe bombs, a law enforcement officer spotted a gun on the seat of Coffman’s pickup. A subsequent search of the truck turned up a “loaded 9 mm Hi-Point handgun; a loaded Windham Weaponry rifle; a loaded Hatfield Gun Company SAS shotgun; several large capacity ammunition feeding devices loading with more than ten rounds of rifle ammunition; hundreds of rounds of ammunition; a crossbow with bolts; several machetes; camouflage smoke devices; stun gun” and 11 Molotov cocktails.
He was originally indicted on 17 counts, including possession of an unregistered firearm, carrying a pistol without a license, carrying a rifle or shotgun, possession of a large-capacity feeding device, possession of an unregistered firearm, and unlawful possession of ammunition.
When law enforcement officers searched Coffman, they found a 9 mm Smith & Wesson handgun in his right pocket and a .22-caliber North American Arms revolver in his left pocket. He was initially indicted in January and has been detained ever since.

"fake news. The guy never fired a shot."

Ummm??
I don't get the above response.
Was "firing-a-shot" part of any charges?

If not, then what was 'fake' about the reporting?

Be our sherpa here poster 'Samofvt'.

fake news. The guy never fired a shot.

Oh so he had to fire a shot before you'll admit he brought the weapons to DC? The cops caught him before he could snap into action. He's not the only con who brought weapons to DC or stashed them nearby just in case.

Yes, Capitol insurrectionists were armed. Here are the weapons prosecutors say they used | WITF

A review of the federal charges against the alleged rioters shows that they did come armed, and with a variety of weapons: stun guns, pepper spray, baseball bats and flagpoles wielded as clubs.

"Oh so he had to fire a shot before you'll admit he brought the weapons to DC?"

Well, from my limited perspective, poster Sealy, it appears our colleague ..'Samofvt' ain't a serious individual. One with gravitas, so to speak.

In short, one that others should take as a serious contributor to informed political discussions.

I regret to offer that opinion.
