I think it probably has been for some time, since the Secret Service and FBI were involved almost immediately. I also think they are leaking tidbits of information to the media only when it advances their agenda. For instance, the reference to this being about more than violence may be a way to let the world know who is behind the killings and to shape world opinion at a very critical time. Of course, if this is just a loose kook, none of this applies.

Exactly.......first they leaked the 10 million ransom,
then our kids being in danger.....then they confirmed it.

So are they just getting us ready for the really "bad
news" about what this shooter really wants.

Perhaps the "electronics" involves money transfer, perhaps not. Could be the sniper wants temporary or periodic broadcast control over all the media to deliver some message. This might explain the 800 number: a number that all could call to hear his rants. The PO box could be used for those who wished to order hard copies.

Alternatly, maybe he is trying to set up a fund raising mechanism by which folks can send in money to keep him from killing their kids.

"the reference to this being about more than violence may be a way to let the world know who is behind the killings and to shape world opinion at a very critical time. Of course, if this is just a loose kook, none of this applies.

That statement just reminded me of something my dad said two weeks ago. "9/11 gave our government the excuse they needed to invade and take down Afganistan after 15 years of CIA involvement. Could this lead to an MET that gives Bush what he needs to finish off Hussain? I believe that the militant Muslim groups of the ME need to be exterminated on a rush basis so that the world can rest a little easier and send a darn good message to terrorists in general. - YOU'RE A DIEING TRADE, CHANGE JOBS BEFORE YOU ARE TERMINATED! - "

I paraphrased some but I feel the same way. I also want to say that we can't keep jumping to the conclusion that every disaster/plane crash/illness outbreak/serial killer is a terrorist attack it just shows the terrorists just how deep they cut and how well they succeeded in their 9/11 attack. Lets assume this guy is a lone nut job until it is made a fact he is not. Then we can unload our entire US arsenal into the belly of terrorism.
