...is that if it was as easy as you say it is then people would be getting away with murder en mass. They aren't so then what is the problem? Do you really have such little knowledge of basic physiology and police forensics to believe it's as simple as you make it out to be? Do you honestly believe a wound that occurs from hitting your head on a wall looks the same as being struck with a brick, a bat, or a fist? I don't know, maybe you do lack education in the fundamentals here to throw down a crowbar then hit your head on the sidewalk to make up such a scene but I would like to think otherwise. Think first. Post second.
