From [THIS](http://www.jsonline.com/news/wisconsin/ex-dnr-warden-accused-of-taking-guns-from-hunters-b99274283z1-259969251.html) story, is it just me or does [David Horzewski](http://media.jrn.com/images/185*179/b99274747z.1_20140520170119_000_gu069tr9.1-0.jpg) look (and act) a little too much like [Chet](https://encrypted-tbn0.gstatic.com/images?q=tbn:ANd9GcQKCzDjyTwEDK1czxVig8szkpp2dLIP9RiAAhKrinQEfcjnrMC_) from 'Weird Science"?

I don’t get how he was able to do this for so long, to so many people. He’s a federal employee, physically taking guns away from people, which is something that gun owners seem really, really sensitive about. I’d have thought the screaming would have brought this case to light much, much quicker.

My dad always said DNR stood for “Department of No Returns.” Apparently, that was true after all. He hated the DNR.

And, yes, Horzewski DOES look like Chet!

Minor nitpick, he was a state employee, not federal.

I thought it was “Do Not Resuscitate” and this was going to be a hospital story.
