On the subject of pat and guns, I just realized that he's probably not legally allowed to own them. Now I'm not a lawyer but the way I'm interpreting it is this way.
The Federal law is "GUN BAN FOR INDIVIDUALS CONVICTED OF A MISDEMEANOR CRIME OF DOMESTIC VIOLENCE -- 18 U.S.C. § 922(g)(9)"
The following quotation is from the justice department website
As we all know he was convicted of disorderly conduct because he threatened to kill his wife and unborn child. I'm not 100% sure that is enough to qualify under this law, but if it is that means pat also committed fraud on form 4473 that you fill out when you purchase a gun (assuming that purchase occurred after the conviction date). It seems like he also would get in trouble for any ammo purchases after this date as well.
Has anyone else mentioned this before?

The following quotation is from the justice department website
Qualifying Offenses: As enacted the statute defines "misdemeanor crime of domestic violence" (MCDV) as any state or federal misdemeanor that -
"has, as an element, the use or attempted use of physical force, or the threatened use of a deadly weapon, committed by a current or former spouse, parent, or guardian of the victim, by a person with whom the victim shares a child in common, by a person who is cohabiting with or has cohabited with the victim as a spouse, parent, or guardian, or by a person similarly situated to a spouse, parent, or guardian of the victim."
From the ATF's websiteThis definition includes all misdemeanors that involve the use or attempted use of physical force (e.g., simple assault, assault and battery), if the offense is committed by one of the defined parties. This is true whether or not the statute specifically defines the offense as a domestic violence misdemeanor
"Persons who have been convicted in any court of a qualifying misdemeanor crime of domestic violence (MCDV) are generally prohibited under Federal law from receiving or possessing any firearm or ammunition in or affecting commerce."
and
Violation of this prohibition is a federal offense punishable by up to 15 years imprisonment and/or a fine of up to $250,000
