Our prayers are out for you and your family to stay safe.
If I was a parent in that area, I would start home schooling my children immediately.

Prayers sent on up, stay safe.

Of course he's not running the show, but the fact that he's put out there as spokesman/titular leader speaks volumes for the mentality of those who are actually running it. I agree. However, I also agree with txdoda that it is very likely that the sniper has chosen Moose to represent the police in this media dialog.

I get upset when people like K Kennedy T and Pat Brown immediately want to blame gun owners and availability of guns whenever there is a tragedy. I wish I could remember all the ignorant things that Brown said but it made me so mad that I emailed FOX to complain about her, something I almost never do.

Right the brother of the unibomber read the released stuff and said "$hi!, that's my brother!" Then he called the authorities.
If the data had not been released, the Unibomber might be still bombing and killing people.
This is not being done with the sniper case. They have to keep some data secret to eliminate the zillion wannabees calling in to confess to the sniping. However, someone in America knows who these snipers are. We just need to see some of the data, hand writing and maybe some other data.
Then someone will say, "I know who the killer is!"

Well maybe she is coming around. I wish we had training courses for all citizens to carry in a well regulated militia. A gun and a cell phone. Hold the creeps down until the cops arrive....

Actually the left wing Rats push the PC crap to insure that they have more voters and contributions from those involved in the PC Scams.>>>>>>>>>>>>
It's not just the rats......
The RNC announced it was "distancing" itself from Tom
Tancredo and his views on immediate deportation of all
illegals, and the use of military on our unprotected
borders......

"If I was a parent in that area, I would start home schooling my children immediately."
I am praying that parents here will wake up to the current necessity.
This spree is likely the least reason to do so in this (DC)area. This is merely another, perhaps more immediate reason to do so. It is the reason why this family does that no matter where they live.
To: Grampa Dave
redact one or two key words. Thats all it took with son of sam-one or two words.

I agree with you re home schooling in most school districts in America.
However, if my children were in reasonably good schools in the DC urban area, had good teachers, were learning and liked it, after those threats, they would be home schooled.

" A little Humor"Well I don't know what this has to do with anything being discussed, but it is funny.
To: Velveeta
I think you are right. I haven't particularly liked the way Moose has handled the press conferences, but he isn't running the show. I thought he did alright today. Better than he was doing in the beginning.
So the incompetence is higher up than Moose. It's incompetence at the highest levels of the FBI and ATF, which is not a comforting thought.
I noticed today Moose said "person" or "people responsible". Mostly the FBI profilers have been saying it is a single individual. Maybe they are finally considering the possibility of a group.
To: heavy12773
responses and prayers are welcome. Best of luck, and let's hope this thing is resolved between now and your return. If it isn't, however, you'll need to face the situation at some point. Hope you're putting thought into what you'll ask your kids to do; living with this type of situation may become a common occurrence going forward, and it'd be terrible to have your kids live in constant fear.
While these events are tragic, there's a statistically small probability any one person will be targeted. Just something to keep in mind.

Cindy wonders out loud, "Could "the beltway sniper" actually be operating with a terrorist cell or team versus just one sniper acting alone?"
DAILY STAR.com.lb - THE DAILY STAR Lebanese News: "WHAT HAS AMERICA ACCOMPLISHED?" -Opinion Commentary by Joseph Samaha (OPINION-COMMENTARY NOTE: Mr. Samaha is the editor of the Beirut daily As-Safir. He wrote this opinion-commentary for The Daily Star. OPINION-COMMENTARY SNIPPET: "But Washington will come under increasing pressure to wait and see what is really going on. The last few days have demonstrated that Sept. 11 was part of a larger scheme by a terrorist organization pursuing a specific goal. Many intermingling factors are at play that would become even more confused if the world were to engage in a new war. The issue cannot be looked at in isolation of what is taking place in Indonesia and Southeast Asia, as well as in Kuwait. It is not in anyone's interests to undermine the stability of the world's biggest Muslim nation (and the fourth largest nation in the world). As far as Kuwait is concerned, preliminary investigations revealed the existence of sleeper cells closely influenced by what is taking place in Palestine. Moreover, can terrorism be divorced from the internal situation in Yemen? The Americans don't have to look far to see what might happen if they insist on pursuing their vendetta against Iraq. In the very heart of their capital city, a lone sniper has been picking off people at random, sowing panic, and bringing ordinary life to a standstill. What is going to prevent small bands of terrorists from doing the same? The Washington sniper might not be a terrorist; but who says that terrorists cannot be snipers?") (101902)

There are many ways to preserve vital evidence for later trials and to flush out the phoney confessors.
That is not being done in this case and in other high profile unsolved murders in liberal cities with PC Police Chiefs, and I should include PC DA's.

Could be. He's getting out of there somehow.
