I've been following this situation but I have not commented on it as of yet. I think I will today. The location of the shooting is real close to where I think this guy lives. I've told my wife and co-workers that I felt the shooter resided somewhere in the Aspen Hill area between Connecticut and Georgia Avenues.
Mind you this is an unqualified opinion, but I think I will post it and you all can feel free to pick it apart.
1. Serial killers tend to start off in what they would concider their comfort zone. Near to where they live and or work. Using the Non-hit shooting at the Micheals store as shooting number 1, look at the first 7 shootings and now shooting 13. Shooting 1 and 4 are off Aspen Hill Rd. (1. Aspen Hill, and Georgia. 4. Aspen Hill and Connecticut) Also note that shootings 2,5,and 7 are directly down Georgia Ave and shooting 6 is directly down Connecticut Ave. Shooting 3 is the only one that does not fit the pattern.
2. It is pretty well established that this sicko is following the news and reacting to it. They said our schools were safe. He takes a shot at a school. They said he shoots to the body. He takes a head shot. They said they think they got him in Baltimore. He does what appears to be his most sloppy killing at a Home Depot that evening. Lately they have been speculating that he is moving south. This shot took place back up north and symbolicly slightly north of where I think he lives.
3. Lately, after a shooting there is a big push to shut down roads and search vehiciles. I feel that this shooting was close enough to "home" that he might have returned home on foot, put the weapon away, and hop in the car and head for work. This would also explain the earliness of the shooting. Had to get it done before he had to head off to his job.
These are just my observations. I have other notions as to his occupation, marrital status, and psyche but as I said this is an unqualified opinion and I don't want to muddy the water too badly.

I think the shooting today happened as a message to Moose - "your gonna play around with my message by saying it was garbled - I will kill in your backyard to teach you to F$$$ with me".

Well, I for one find your analysis valid. I don't see much to pick at except maybe...
If the shooter is indeed doing his thing and then running off to work, how could he get through a day without being in a cold sweat most of the time and constantly looking over his shoulder? Why wouldn't he at least have a suspicious look? How could co-workers not be suspicious?

With all due respect, you have said nothing that we haven't all heard a hundred times from the talking heads.

I did read it. It has been said since the first day that he probably lives in the area that he did his first shooting. As far as him listening to the cops and then reacting, this has also been mentioned numerous times. I guess your theory that he walked home today is a new one. BTW, what made the HD shooting the sloppy shooting? No one got a description.
