Noted in passing

I expect you've heard about this little dollop of creepiness:

Washington (Reuters, May 31) - A handgun that Saddam Hussein was clutching when U.S. forces captured him in a hole in Iraq last December is now kept by President Bush at the White House, a spokesman confirmed on Sunday.

Time magazine, which first disclosed the gun's location, said military officials had it mounted after it was seized from Saddam near his hometown of Tikrit last year, and soldiers involved in the capture gave it to Bush. ...

"He really liked showing it off," Time quoted a visitor as saying. "He was really proud of it."

But did you hear that him having that gun is probably illegal and in violation of several DC gun control laws?

Jail no bail, wadda ya say?
