WorldNetDaily publisher Joe Farah had a loaded gun in his bag at Dulles Airport Sunday. Thankfully, like so many others who’ve had loaded guns when they shouldn’t have, he didn’t Second Amendment himself. According to Hatewatch:

Joseph Francis Farah, a leading ‘birther’ who runs the right-wing, conspiracy website WorldNetDaily, was reportedly caught by TSA agents on Sunday with a loaded .38-caliber revolver in his carry-on bag as he passed through security at Dulles International Airport outside Washington.

Farah, who denounced TSA screening practices in a 2010 column, faces a class 1 misdemeanor charge for carrying a gun in an airport terminal, according to a spokesperson for the Metropolitan Washington Airports Authority. He was released pending a summons.

    Didn’t he do something like this before? What is he, just another Attention Whore? The penalty is a misdemeanor. Sounds like one way to jump up and down and scream LOOK AT ME – and since he is who he is, the only thing that makes sense is this is one more bid for attention.

    Class 1 misdemeanor? This creep looks like a terrorist thug. Haul his ass to Gitmo. Cavity searches at least twice a day ’cause ya never know with this type.

    This will be the next main “Open Carry” push by the NRA — American citizens bringing loaded guns onto commercial airliners.

    Funny how violating a law dealing with gun possession does not preclude one from owning a gun.
