I think there has been a fair amount of discussion on FR about all of the theories, plus some of our own theories. They were not all about ME men. Its true that not many here would be surprised if it turns out to be ME terrorists. I don't think you can fault people for that considering the times.

I understand your point regarding why in these post 9/11 times ME men have been the most common target of extra scrutiny. However, engaging in wholesale unproductive flames against those of whatever racial/ethnic/religious background who are the "terrorists of the day" these days does nothing to help us catch this perp(s).

And yes, I admit, one of my own personal agendas here is that individual RKBA does not suffer anymore than it already has in these post 9/11 times.

Gus - Virgil has a very valid point - this is a discussion forum and I have seen the full spectrum of theories presented here. I opine you saw a few you did not like and assumed that all of FR was of the same mind. Additionally, as we were caught so unaware on 9-11, I would not discount the possibility that the sniper attacks are indeed terrorist acts initiated by Al-Qaeda or members of thier network. The bottom line is that we do not know - because one buffoon was discredited because he said it was ME terrorists has no bearing on the fact that it just might be. Personally, I have wavered between the looney home-grown nutcase theory and the terrorist. No one here has the answer as of yet - and if they did they most certainly should not be posting it here...
