This wouldn't happen to be the son of Carl "Quick Draw" McRowan,
renowned anti-gun fascist bootlick, of which so much has been written
here and there?  And if so, isn't this very person responsible for
"leaving" his revolver with dear old dad in the first place so Carl, Sr.
could deal appropriately with those dastardly pool crashers?  And by
stepping in to take responsibility for its presence in the house at the
time, got ole' dad off the hook with those pesky police officers?  After
all, those draconian anti-gun laws in DC are only for the little people,
aren't they?

My, what a wonderful choice for the NRA board.  Perhaps Sarah and Jim
have a ne'er do well child, too?

This has gotta be a troll...

Have an armed day,
Pete
