Well, actually very similar...I have had the experience of a suspect shooting a state trooper...(trooper survived brain damaged) who fled into a "hood" and was helped out by several. So...agree or not...but there are some that will. I have had experience of a suspect who fled the courthouse, killed a homeowner and was helped out by people in the "hood". I have had experience of a redneck who tried to kill a cop...who was helped out by other rednecks in a redneck area of the county. So, obviously you don't know what I have experienced.

Now, now, there's no need to get defensive, not with me, anyway. My point was that none of the instances you mentioned got this sort of news coverage, and none of them involved killing the judge presiding over his own re-trial, in the courtroom, and taking out more people besides, including two cops. We had two state-troopers shot dead on the interstate here a few years ago, and it didn't take an unreasonably long time to find the two killers, few days at most, IIRC. My entire argument with you (in the classic usage of the word) is that our shooter today will turn up pretty darn soon. BTW, I'm sure you've also experienced what I have, watching low-lifes selling other low-lifes down the river on the witness stand, often being involved in the exact same crime, but cutting a deal to save his own sorry hide a few years' prison time. You've probably also experienced the suspect's girlfriends and cousins and "associates" making "anonymous" calls to the police to let them know where the suspect can be found.
