Although details were initially sketchy, Lumber Liquidators' (LL) stock price plunged as much as 10% early Friday after a reported raid by federal investigators on its headquarters related to a probe of illegal imports.
In a statement, the top flooring retailer with more than 300 stores nationwide, said it would provide to investigators information and documents related to the import of certain products.
The Department of Homeland Security, along with the U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service and Department of Justice conducted the raid, acting under a sealed court-issued warrant.

The blue gun in the photo are for training, they shoot a simunition round, a bit more accurate then paint ball. It has the consistency of lipstick. The bright blue lets you know someone didn’t bring a real gun to training.
With Fish and Wildlife involved we know they have to have been illegally selling wood for planked salmon dinners.

Absolutely.
Political harassment-—pure and simple.
Look at it from their perspective. Busting a law abiding company is a lot safer than doing something like patrolling Chicago streets.
I thought Homeland Security was supposed to protect us from terrorists. Is Lumber Liquidators a terrorist organization? I guess if they advertise on Conservative Radio and Fox News they are.
Gee, did any of their SWAT teams get to fire any of the 3,000,000,000 hollow point bullets they've got stored for just such events?
Frigging cowboys.
Time to shut it down.
