Indeed it is what I refer to. It seems there is the possibility that Mr Duggan did not fire at police at all, alternatively, there is also the possibility, which cannot be ruled out, that Mr Duggans weapon was police issue and stolen from them in the past. It's too early to say yet...however I'd wager that most people will latch onto the former possibility to disregard the latter...and that means there's going to be even more anger amongst protestors in Tottenham, and the freebooters are going to feel even more justified at attacking a society that in their minds does little more than shoot at them periodically.
