   All that was mentioned is the two murder victims' bodies were found inside   
   the home...there's nothing specific, as usual.

   Particularly since someone planning on doing criminal mischief might feel   
   more encouraged to the effect that unlike a crowed city, no one would see   
   them and getting away with it would be easy.

   That's because a Free marketplace of ideas is Not encouraged by making   
   posters 'register'.

   Which it makes even less sense to require 'registration'.

   Speaking up when needed is something I'll always do, and I couldn't care   
   less who don't like it, because No one shouldn't l ike it...unless they've   
   got something against Justice!
