The suspect in the killing of a trooper and the critical wounding of another outside a rural barracks is a survivalist...

Eric Matthew Frein, 31, of Canadensis, Pa., is still armed with the .308-caliber rifle that he used to open fire on the barracks late Friday, State Police Commissioner Frank Noonan said at a news conference where he revealed the suspect's name.

Noonan called Frein "extremely dangerous."

No problem. I think my point needed an explanation anyway.

......this loser imbecile is not helping anything conservatives believe in.

The sooner he is caught or killed the better off the conservative movement in America is. Too many losers will be saying “I told you so!’.............on a variety of issues.

It really looks like this is the guy. But no need to shoot up every paperboy in the area cause you are juiced up like the LA cops were on their manhunt.

Still could be someone’s useful and mouthy idiot. If he isn’t alone in the planning, it would be nice to get them all.

Any indication what set him off?

OK, that makes way more sense the IDs and stuff were found via a search warrant in his home and not in his abandoned truck.

Beware PA.

It looks like the leftist/progressive Tom Wolfe is going to the next governor.

They’ll be looking for any event such as this to pass a NY-style “SAFE” law and greatly restrict gun ownership.

DO EVERYTHING YOU CAN TO KEEP THE REPUBLICAN IN. He’s not a hardcore conservative, but he’s been all right for the 2A.

Why should we believe the cops at this point? If a PSP had murdered or maimed a civilian, which they have, they would be doing everything possible to obfuscate and obstruct. The truth will come out. The suspect may very well be the villain that they portray him to be but we can wait until he has had his day in court.

From what I read today, some official said he was a trained shooter who had recent range experience. This I doubt. Anyone with minimum experience can hit a man sized target from 200yds. I don’t know the range distance at the medevac landing site that the cops had to abandon because they were taking fire, but evidently he didn’t hit anyone there. That to me shows low skill level with a rifle.

Then there’s today’s journalists who generally misreport the simplest of facts. That’s what I referred to in my other post regarding case matches.

Who keeps their social security card loose in their vehicle?

I have not seen my ss card in years, but I highly doubt it is in my truck.

Would your social security card be in your jeep if you planned to use it to bug out to another country?

Look under #5, the IDs and stuff were found at his home, not in the truck

Thank you. I stand corrected. SS card found in his home, not his jeep.
On the lam and undocumented.

Early reports had it the way you said. The news is starting to get written info from authorities, and they aren’t confusing it up quite as much now.
