Friendly fire. Being shot with a weapon originating in the US...

I suppose friendly fire is a possibility, even in this election year.

Just like Islamic mobs being motivated to attack an embassy by an obscure 12 minute internet video clip, or the unemployment rate suddenly dropping the furthest it has in 30 years, or Obama losing a debate because of the altitude are all possibilities, too.

Yeah, yeah, let’s go with the friendly fire angle. Anything to not put the blame where it belongs.
