Does he have a McCain-Palin bumper sticker?
no he doesn’t have any stickers. and minds his own business.
LOL; Forgot all about that one. That could do it.
(Did he inquire with Sheriff about this new 'visitor' helper and verify who this person was?) Whatever the case, again, hope next time, he - and whoever else this happens to - would resist temptation to take on the challenge with perp alone - or with them personally.
