Dumbest false flag ever?

 

PEWAUKEE, Wis. (AP) —

Authorities say a Wisconsin QAnon supporter arrested Friday for allegedly firing paintball rounds at two reservists in Pewaukee recently traveled to Washington, D.C., and promised violence there.

 

Prosecutors said Ian Alan Olson, 31, of Nashotah, drove a car spray-painted with QAnon slogans to the Wisconsin Army Reserve Center on March 15 and shouted, "This is for America" before firing two or three paintball rounds at the soldiers.

 

His gun then jammed.

 

Olson was about 15 yards from the troops.

 

The rounds did not hit the reservists, one of whom tackled Olson and held him to the ground until police arrived.

 

Olson was charged in federal court with attacking U.S. servicemen on account of their service and assaulting officers.

 

He was charged in Waukesha County Circuit Court with two misdemeanor counts of attempted battery and one count of disorderly conduct.

 

Olson's public defender could not be reached by The Associated Press for comment Sunday.

 

Federal court documents accused Olson of telling intake staff at the Waukesha County Jail he had just returned from Washington, where he failed to deliver his message.

 

He allegedly said he would cause a "mass casualty" event and people would remember his name.

 

The documents said Olson wanted to test whether National Guard troops in Washington were loyal to the president of QAnon.

 

"I am ready for this. How many people need to die for a message to get across," he said, according to the complaint.

 

Capitol police took Olson for a mental evaluation before releasing him.

 

Prosecutors also said Olson owns armor-piercing bullets and several guns.

 

He remains in custody at the Waukesha County Jail.

 

Olson pleaded not guilty to the misdemeanor counts.

 

A bail hearing was scheduled for Wednesday.
