Damn!Y'know, I'm hoping this will up the timetable on what the Administration has in play. IMO, this is definitely terror-related, and as a result, fair game in terms of Al Qaeda & Iraq.

Please change the title of thread to indicate that today's shooting of boy in Maryland is linked definitively with previous shootings in the area.....

Shooter firing at the victim's reflection maybe? I've heard of hunters doing that with the reflection of a deer in a pair of slifing glass doors. Glass is tough on bullets, and plays hell with the trajectory. Shooting through glass changes the path of the bullet, sometimes substantially, and in only somewhat predictable ways. A pro would compensate for the expected trajectory deviation caused by the glass, but even this isn't a sure thing. An amateur who doesn't know how to compensate his point of aim for the glass will very likely blow the shot unless he gets lucky.

Well, 1,2,3,4,5 make a 4 if connected
6 is on the north border of DC.
Connect 7 & 8. The line lies along the east border of DC
How close to #6 is Brentwood??
It's hard to find a pattern except they certainly appear to have a center to the first five...which were all kills.
I consider the window shot just a ploy to see who would show up (two cops and not a fleet).

They just said it was identical to those recovered at the other scenes. That'd make it at .223, I do believe.

Q. Is it the same caliber bullet? A. It is consistant, that's how they linked it.
Q. Same caliber?
