Only one person was found with a gun on capitol grounds and not in the capitol.

So there were no known guns inside the capitol.

> Lonnie Coffman had the gun in his vehicle.

> Guy Refitt is being charged based on his son's testimony but claims he did not have it on him https://www.buzzfeednews.com/article/zoetillman/capitol-riot...

It's literally sensationalism, inflating statistically insignificant facts in order to futher a narrative.
