This is so realistic, and if the guy thought this through he wouldn't be in jail.
On Friday evening, U.S. Capitol Police arrested a Virginia man as he attempted to pass through a police checkpoint in downtown D.C. with fake inaugural credentials, a loaded handgun and over 500 rounds of ammunition, according to a police report and a law enforcement source briefed on the situation.
The man, identified as Wesley Allen Beeler, pulled his pickup truck to a police checkpoint just north of the Capitol building, the source told CNN. Beeler, from Front Royal, Virginia, presented officers with what was described as an unauthorized inauguration credential.
When police asked Beeler if he was carrying any weapons, he told them he had a Glock semiautomatic pistol in the center armrest, the source said. The Glock was loaded with 17 rounds of ammunition and a round chamber ready to fire, according to the source.
Police recovered the pistol, as well as 509 rounds of ammunition, shotgun shells and a magazine for the handgun, according to an incident report from the Metropolitan Police Department. Beeler was arrested and charged with possession of an unregistered firearm and possession of unregistered ammunition.

I think it’s a shame. It doesn’t matter if you voted for Trump or Biden, a new president is elected. Please don’t start a hate or votes were stole thread. The man won like it or not. The world will be watching, can’t we please have a peaceful transition?
-
I actually feel bad for Biden because he's waited so long to be president that he doesn't get to have a normal inaguration but then when he was veep he actually had one but it's not the same as president.
-
I have never watched an inauguration before so whether it is online or in person doesn't matter to me, but I know that others do watch this. I just hope that there is not any trouble.
-
I definitely won't be watching,
-
I won't be watching but I truly hope it will be a peaceful transition!
-
It will be a peaceful transition. and the news media will still find some reason to stir the pot.

Maybe. The media is the biggest problem. And contrary to what the media touts the trouble is not all coming from "Trump Supporters". The ones who stormed the Capital were not Trump Supporters. Some may have been, the ones that actually went inside the Capital when the doors were opened from the inside and they were invited in. Watch the video! The confrontations are coming from all sides. I did see where several of the big cities including DC have suspended mail delivery for the next few days. People need to THINK about what that means.

The man did not win legally. That has been proven. As far as a peaceful transition Trump has repeatedly said that will happen but the media can't let it go. And idiots posting online can't let it go. I am not sure why the "world" is supposedly watching what we are doing. For the most part I do not really care what other counties are doing unless it is planning an attack on us. And get ready because that will start happening again. The past 4 years with Trump in office everyone left us alone.

As far as Trump is concerned yes it will. The media will cause all the problems they can. If I were Trump I would probably leave a day early. Throw them off. But I am sure they are already camped out with their cameras.

countrygirl12 you are as crazy as Trump. It was only Trump supporters there, stop blaming others for people like you and Trump. Blame the media, it is what it is Trump is a crazy man the worse President ever. Also you did not complain when he won back in 2016, no one clam he did not win legally. Biden did win legally and it has been
proven over and over again Don't know why I waste my time , bye girl

We also psray it is peaceful. I am concerned for our country :sad1:

Thanks for that post, countrygirl12. You've got a good head on your shoulders. :highfive:

Biden said in his inaugural speech that he wants unity. We will see if his actions match his words. He can help to bring about unity if he chooses to not antagonize those on the other side.
I wish him the best of luck and I pray for him and our country - I pray for peace and prosperity under Joe Biden's leadership.
Good luck and best wishes to my President Joe Biden.
(How many of you Trump haters had the decency to refer to Trump as your President or had hopes for prosperity under his leadership rather than wishing doom and destruction just so that you could gloat and point fingers? Very few and that is a real shame and is indicative of one of the many things wrong with this country).
God Bless us all [we need it]...

I’m just glad that the White House is finally cleared of all the dirty cockroaches which was recently infecting the White House. I’d rather have a boringPresident then a crazy loudmouth negative incident causing moron leading the people. Amen to Biden and Harris as the new leaders of the United States of America.

It was peaceful and beautiful . Different, of course, but there was a peaceful and uplifting air about the event. At least that's what I came away with. :)

I don't know what is wrong with this world today. People need to be more concerned about this virus and how many people are dying each day instead of violence over a Presidential election.

I did find it ironic back during her early run for President that everyone on the D side and in the media lambasted any Republican who happened to mispronounce the name "Kamala" and all were immediately labeled as being racist for their inability to pronounce her name correctly (even though it is not obvious upon first sight which syllable should receive the emphasis).
Yet when she was sworn in as our new Vice President by another liberal - female - minority on the US Supreme Court, who also got the "Kamala" pronunciation wrongJustice Sotomayor got an absolute pass from being labeled a racist. Why is it racist for a conservative to mispronounce a name, but 100% okay for a liberal to do the exact same thing? As a matter of fact, it seems to me that it is even MORE of an insult/oversight/offensive situation when the Justice swearing her in at such a momentous event in history doesn't even bother to insure that she has the pronunciation right. Somebody please explain to me where my logic is flawed.
Just more of the double standard B.S. incidents which I would love to hear any one explain to me in terms I could understand.

Perhaps a Trump Patriot Party is coming. What do you think? :thumbsup:

Well, if you don't understand it, then it is impossible to explain. Besides, your terms for understanding include the word rational. Are you kidding?
Besides, your logic is seldom flawed, UGetPaid.
People (change that to women cuz I don't think a man would give a p-o-o-p) who stress over how their name is pronounced in situations such as those we are in now are obsessive compulsive and need to take a chill pill. She is a waste of space IMO anyway.

I think they call it "POLITICS"
Its in every aspect of iife.
Monday Morning QBing.
Dontcha think the Packer fans are yelling why they kicked a FG so late in the game?
Or when someone right here in the forum does a spell check on someone and means it in not a nice way?
I can remember when i was a kid someone batting higher in the order not as good as me cos he was closer to manager.
Need i go on?
More serious things to worry about.

I watched the inauguration show as well. Amanda Gorman is so inspiring. I am glad that my son's school is all sharing her video and learning from her.

No, it is called "HYPOCRISY"; but you are correct that it is in every aspect of life.

I think when i said Politics i was already covering hypocrisy.I guess we could put reiigeon in that group too.
Jesus certainly didnt hold back from telling that to many while Satan has blinded the minds in this world to support freedom of religeon.

I'm glad it was peaceful. It's no need to get ugly and dangerous just because you don't agree with the outcome.

Well the Inauguration is over, now, send the troops to portland Oregan, where there is constant violence and criminal activities...
