In a somewhat ironic situation, a staffer for an anti-gun congressman has been arrested for trying to bring ammunition and firearms magazines into the Cannon House Office Building.
On Thanksgiving morning, Michael Hopkins, communications director for U.S. Rep. Joe Morelle, D-NY, was entering the building and sent his backpack through the metal detector. He was quickly arrested when a subsequent hand search of the bag turned up 11 rounds of ammunition and four magazines—at least one of which exceeded the District of Columbia’s capacity limit.
