Now anyone who has seen a raid by a burgler, HMRC or the PSNI would instantly realise that the house in question was not searched at all, no trace of forensic examination whatsoever in that house.
I think more to do with the media being told by the US Gov not to cause alarm until investigation uncovers something

America gun crime needs sorting though

The gun lobby thought if more had been armed they could have saved lives by shooting the attackers, flip gunfight at the OK corral leaves the big screen and becomes the latest tv sensation next.

That horse bolted long since and is now beyond redemption. As for the first black president, when he had the opportunity with majority houses, he did absolutely nothing to bring proposals on gun control forward hence I have no time for his crocodidliodile tears on the subject.

Frankly he bottled it, I'm not surprised mind you, he would have been shot. Mercans, eh?
NEVER MOVE ON. Years on, I cannot ever watch Ireland with anything but indifference, I continue to wish for the imminent death of Donal Spring, the FIRFUC's executioner of Wee Paddy & Wee Stu, and I hate the FIRFUCs with undiminished passion.

US internal policies mirror their foreign policy. That policy basically amounts to "how can we ensure that the right people get more wealthy while the inevitable killing doesn't impact anybody of any particular importance".
It is a man's own mind, not his enemy or foe, that lures him to evil ways.
