"On November 1, 2006, Mohammed Riaz, sprayed gasoline throughout his home in Accrington, Blackburn, Lancashire, while his wife and four daughters slept. Riaz was from Pakistan. He had spent the first 22 years of his life in the notorious North West Frontier. Hell had only a half-acre in Wyoming and fewer devils per capita than Pakistan’s ‘Frontier’ province. There are more Tombstones and Dodge Cities in the land of the Pashtuns than Sonnybrook Farms. Rooster Cogburn would have needed a bodyguard and a head start to get from the Marshal’s office to the corral.
