He is a gun-show-nut. I am beginning to believe that he may in fact have something in his record that might cause him to fail a background check. That is the only justification that I can come up with for his paranoia that the gubmint will come and take away his gunz.

Someone from the hometown recently reminded me of a long-ago incident that he "caused" that would be a felony today. My parents must have shielded me from that one, I only vaguely remember it. I don't know if he was a minor at the time, if the charges were dropped, or what. Plus quite a few DUIs when older, most likely 2 or 3 other things.

Whatever it is, he sure is askeered!!
