So whatever happened to the White Man In The White Van?

It's funny you asked that. I was driving to work one day in guess what, my white van. My brother was at the local police station and over the radio came a call concerning a white van driving down a back road and had out of state plates on it. I hadn't switched from my NY registration.
Of course the first thing my brother did was tell the cops that it was me and not a sniper. I had a cop car follow me for 5 miles and continued on his way after I pulled into the driveway of the house I was working at.

From what I understand there never really was a threat from a white van after the 2nd or 3rd shooting. But it was absolutley ridiclous that the cops kept on searching vans and holding up traffic for hours and hours.

Sorry I meant "People" of the Lie

Richard Peck's bestselling book "The Road Less Travelled" seemed to make the assumption that people need a healthy dose of God to keep their psyches in sync. "People of the Lie" makes a case for the influence of the Devil.

But its not religious, it explore the true, pure evil born in some people

"Evil is the exercise of power, the imposing of one's will upon others by overt or covert coercion". "The core of evil is ego-centricity, whereby others are sacrificed rather than the ego of the individual." These words and the following analysis that Scott Peck gives us into the world of evil are sorely needed now in America. At the heart of our political and moral meltdown is the force of evil. According to Dr. Peck (psychology) ego-centric persons are utterly dedicated to preserving their self-serving image. They cultivate an image of being a good, right, God-fearing citizens. They specialize in self-deceit and thus are People of the Lie.

I don't know if Malvo will get the death penalty--but I do know that jury is hearing the 5th tape they made when he confessed, including giggling about the death of one of the victims.

I pity the jury having to hear .He is so thrilled with himself.

[ArrogantBustard]

but I do know that jury is hearing the 5th tape they made when he confessed, including giggling about the death of one of the victims.

That is not going to go over well with them ... and they both decide on guilt or innocence, and recommend sentence. Malvo is eligible for the needle.

Yep, I'm impressed with how quickly VA was able to bring these roaches to trial.

Not only that the prosecution rested today on the 'little $h*t' malvo.

One POS down, one to go.

Thank you Virginia people. It's a shame we're so helpless over here in Md.

"So much for the principled position!"

When one person, calmly; deliberately without reason or remorse; and in fact with pleasure hunts and kills innocent people; at random. . .someone's husband; someone's wife; someone's Mother; another's Father; aims to kill a child; just for variety and is stopped only because they are caught. . .

. . .then I would only offer that there is only one principled position.

Justice bump, and thanks for the ping...

[dwd1]

That never happens in our government, does it?

[BJClinton]

Well stated.

[MissAmericanPie]

I can't get exicted until we see how the thousand future appeals come out.

[Vigilanteman]

The only legal loophole the DC snipers deserve.

From what I understand there never really was a threat from a white van after the 2nd or 3rd shooting. But it was absolutley ridiclous that the cops kept on searching vans and holding up traffic for hours and hours.

Yeah, but just think how many Muslims had their self-esteem spared because some white guy was being profiled instead.</ sarcasm>

[MeekOneGOP]

Justice was served ! Thanks !

[The Mayor]

Ya, your right..

"NJ High Schools have invited Trantino to come to their schools to speak to the students."

I guess Doctor Mengele had to cancel.

[OldFriend]

They really wanted Willie Horton

Thankyou for bringing up the Noahic Covenant. Gotta wonder what part of "all the generations" people don't understand.

And wasn't it God Himself who gave all of us a death sentence in that same book of the Bible?

[Bonaparte]

"True justice for this monster would be death by firing squad."

Too much honor in a firing squad.

Hanging.

[Bonaparte]

"So whatever happened to the White Man In The White Van?"

That would be Angry White Male. But that's just the abbreviated form of Angry White Christian Heterosexual Patriotic Male. I wonder how many lives were needlessly lost because FBI profilers put everybody off the scent...

"...tell him that he will be shot by a police sniper while in prison. But not when or where."

And the first 10 times he's shot at, the sniper deliberately misses him by inches while the guy dives for cover. One of those times, the shots come right through the window of his cell. Then one day, the sniper gets him -- in the right hip. He survives. A few months later, he gets him in the left knee and again he survives. Things go on like this for years. One day, a hand. Couple months later, an ear -- until the man literally turns yellow with the constant fear and anxiety. Prison bookies start giving even odds on whether he dies by sniper or dies by hanging himself.
