The only wrench in the story is the "fake" VIP/press passes he had on him.
Which, if they exist at all, do look quite suspicious in any form going to one of these events that armed.
Everything else though points elsewhere, so I want to still lean on the sheriff being a loser but that's not a piece of evidence you can discount entirely.
As I said in another comment, if he really is extremely antigovernment like some are claiming, he might not have believed in ID, and so needed to make fake passes.
It's still early, so we'll just have to wait and see.

This should be the standard that everyone holds to; however, it's just not the case. The 24 hour news cycle, instant access to information and dumbshit shows like CSI and Law & Order have raised unreasonable expectations about how evidence is both gathered and processed.
The sovereign citizen/auditor types have started printing their own press pass. Their theory seems to be that, somehow, the press are a higher class above normal people and that a press pass gets them in anywhere.

It does not.
Makes sense and sounds like the type of nonsense thinking and actions they would take.
And I can see it working on minor day to day life situations pretty consistently, but this is absolutely not that.
