Evidently they did find some guns (and probably no cash, since you don't need a permit to carry cash). The guns were probably kept there to protect the cash from "visitors" from New York during the day.

So a smash-and-grab burglar runs home to New York, shoots a cop, and you're going to blame *our* "lax gun laws"?

That's total bullshit.
Well, where to start. They went there for GUNS! The store also sells them, they also keep them in unlocked cases. They were guns that aren't legal in this state, the added power of which was enough to pierce most body armor. These guys wouldn't have had a chance were they not armed with assualt rifles, a kind of gun that has NO legitimate purpose for law abiding citizens.

As for the music I don't think the factory speakers in a Ford Tempo are really going to rattle too many windows, thanks for assuming I had the money for a system.
