Looks like the cops will need to quit gathering in 2-3s, “shooting the breeze” inparking lots. Also, looks like they have more things to worry about than nabbingspeeders. Wake up!

This was a drug deal gone bad. Simple as that. If you are up at 4:15 am in themorning on a Sunday “waiting for your friends” it’s a drug deal. Ergo nodescriptions of the attackers. He knew who attacked him.

Anybody who knocks at a door at 4:15a should be greeted with a 12-GaugeShotgun.

My friends often show up at my house at 4:15am, unannounced. Come on man. Why would you open the door at 4:15am? And why would you be up at 4:15am,on a Sunday, to answer the door?

Don’t answer the door at 4:15 AM. Just don’t.
