I found a copy of the Fresno Bee story that Lott claimed
"included the fact that while he was breaking in the eldest child, a fourteen year old girl with experience in target shooting, went to her parents' bedroom, got out their handgun---and was unable to use it because of the trigger lock that her father had put on in obedience to a recent state law."
Of course it doesn't include that "fact", which would appear to be a fabrication.
