"I had to shop. I need to eat. I can't stay at home all day," said Kira Leonova, who works at a bookstore near one of the slaying scenes. "I have to work and I have a family."

Some perspective here. Despite the unusual nature of the slayings one still has to consider the odds of taking a bullet from whomever the psycho sniper/snipers are.

Maybe a few hundred million to one? Drive a car, fly in a plane, been near a thunderstorm lately?

Anyone in law enforcement, the media, the government et al that wants to take extra ordinary action or makes unsupported claims is just showing how stupid they are. They will look like a horse's ass when this is all over and should be held to account.

A grave situation of course. It's -not- time to declare matial law or trample civil rights.

Good police work and an aware and informed citizenry will get us through this event.

Hopefully there are enough left of both commodities to make a difference!
