“The state attorney general is saying he most likely killed himself... in the next breath he says he was shot four times, once in the arm and 3 times in the head. That doesn’t add up to me.”

That’s why the autopsy is important. What bullets came from what guns, assigned to each wound. Some will be non-fatal, some or one will be the one that was fatal. Surprised the State AG is saying anything if the investigation is still active. Hmmmmm...

It seems like I heard the TV news (maybe fox) that the shooter had been shot by a sniper while walking into the woods. ??

Well, what’s it going to be? Endure or cut-n-run?

Ah no Jedward. Carrion. I couldn’t be bothered with such silly games. I just keep track of them for posterity you know. Or what ever else they might be used for.

Have a nice day.

Perhaps we’ll find out over time. Perhaps not. I will say prayers for the families who lost loved ones.

“I couldn’t be bothered with such silly games.”

Bookmark this post, and send it to your friends as well. I’m going to finally answer the very first question you asked of ‘jedward’. You asked me “what side are you on?”

Here’s your answer. I am on the side of Conservatism, period, and I’m not going to play your silly little game of which Presidential Candidate’s “side” am I on, and commence entertaining myself and others with thoughts that I personally am going to influence, all by myself, the election. Now, let the people know, you and your friends have wanted to play a game since the beginning and it has simply killed you that I would not play your game.

If you choose the side of Conservatism and Patriotism, you will not go wrong. I recommend this to everyone. You’ve been working to play me for a very long time. Funny, because you have been played, along with your ilk. Now pick up what’s left of your pride and ego and try not to play so many games in forums. When you asked me right off, “what side are you on”, I knew your agenda. Your agenda was to play... get rid of anyone who didn’t support your Candidate. My agenda is the protection of Conservatism and FR. I’ll take my agenda over yours any day.

Yes,

Once something like this happens, it’s just a matter of time before new policies come into effect.

Similar thing happened with the bridge in Minnesota. Over the labor Day weekend, I drove my daughter down to Florida to take her to college, and there was about 8 or 9 bridges that were out. My guess is that they were being evaled for safety.

One thing for certain, policies *will* be reviewed.

Interesting.......City of Crandon employs only 3 full-time cops, yet they have a "heavily-armed SWAT team".

Apparently its the county with the SWAT team not the town. Still point is well taken, since they seem to have only a couple dozen deputies.

It would seem more sensible to have a regional SWAT team, as an additional duty for volunteer deputies in a multi county region. Perhaps with the state, the National Guard even, to provide lift to move them to where they are needed. That would reduce the incentive to use them for general warrant service, and they'd still be available for the rare hostage situation or heaven forbid a terrorist incident. (But Detroitistan isn't far off)

The thing that gets me is that he had that AR-15 with (at least) two fully loaded clips of 15 rounds each in his truck. I can see him carrying his service pistol around with him, but an assault rifle? Either that was normal with him(in which case it says something about his mental state) or he packed that weapon with him that night for a reason. And that smacks of premeditation, not a crime of passion by someone who just ‘snapped.’

You have to wonder if there wasn’t something evil in that SWAT training that he had just received....

The Crandon Mayor was credited on numerous radio broadcasts and Internet news sites as issuing a “lockdown” and “gag order” in the wake of the shooting.

Those reports left the impression that the Mayor issued those decrees. Reasonable because I don't know who else would have such authority short of a military declaration of martial law.

Killing spree reported in small Wisconsin town
By SooToday.com Staff
SooToday.com
Sunday, October 07, 2007

The Wisconsin town of Crandon is under lockdown after a suspect believed to be with the local sheriff’s office gunned down as many as six youths early this morning.

According to a FOX News report, the town’s mayor claims the town is under a “gag order” regarding the overnight event.

Well after the Red Lake(MN) massacre of 3-21-05, they shut down the cell phone network and closed off all the roads to the rez, so this stuff seems to be SOP. Kinda sinister, if you ask me. And no, it was not the mayor who ordered the gaq orders; my gut feeling is the crime scene was federalized almost immediately. Note the FBI was on scene even before the perp died.
