So, lemme get this straight: Trying to enter the president's property with a high-powered automatic weapon is just a misdemeanor? Florida man pleads guilty to trying to enter Bush ranch.

It's Texas. At least he was arrested.

If I make a joke about the likely consequences of him pulling the trigger, the Secret Service is going to check up on me....

I think its interesting the article claims "high-powered automatic weapon", but never states what it was, exactly. Maybe they ment the car.
The guy wasn't charged with anything related to the weapons, nor is there any mention he tried to hurt anyone.
So the crime was...what? Trying to see the Prez without an appointment?

Here in Texas it's quite normal to drive around with a trunk full of weapons. I think it was the clown nose that tipped off the SS. :o)
