What a total idiot, first for doing it, and second for doing it at A CHILD'S BIRTHDAY PARTY. At least he didn't shoot the kids.

Bet the kids were really impressed.
What a way to show off for your guests.

This is the level 1, "Gun IQ Test".
The guy scored a negative. He should no longer have access to guns ever.

I would suggest this as part of the background check for guns.
