I'm not convinced the local or state police VOLUNTEERED for federal assistance. My guess is they were told the feds were taking over. Which should have been done before this you ask me as the shootings have spanned an area over four jurisdictions by now.
In musing, I'm compiled a few ponderings: Why haven't the victims as of yet been identified? Or did I miss something? Or if the dead have been identified what with funerals and everything, why hasn't the ones who survived been identified? Does anyone know the Spotsylvania woman's name? The school kid today? Surely people out there know them but no mention of their names by the media.
Why no shootings on the weekends? I'm beginning to suspect some sort of delivery truck might be involved.
Where the hell is the Governor of Merryland. 8 citizens shot, 6 killed, in a time span of less than a week? When should the state leader come out and reassure the people? Not that I want to see his lying liberal face, but you know what I mean.
Soon, shouldn't we be seeing this kid's "Aunt" on Larry King Live? This is exactly the sort of guest these shows love to have.
Finally, though we've been lamenting the meekness of the LE and such to mention terrorism, I'm very sure the Feds et al are paying close attention to this situation. It's too close to DC, for one thing. And if it's not an outright attack by Al Queda in the manner of 9-11, there's as much a possibility it's a rogue terrorist cell like that one in Oregon, at least I'd say.
