>>>>>His or her tactics are.<<<<<<

I totally agree. For those with hearts black enough, killing is a fairly simple matter; doped out gang bangers do it all the time. Getting away with it is the part that takes a high degree of calculation. Aside from the technical abillity to make a shot, the E&E aspect of the operation conducted by this team shows some skill.

So do mild mannered accountants, mechanics, and housewife's..... Kinda scary huh?

I just heard Glendenning call for "This Coward" to turn himself in! I am not sure just how responsible that is. Calling a sniper at large a "coward" is pretty stupid, wreckless, and juevenile. But then again, being a politician does not require brains. This shows how scripted normal day-to-day is in our world. Something like this terrifies our servants when the camera is humming.

I agree. The killing part could be attributed to a lone wingnut, but the escape and evasion (E&E for the uninitiated) seems to be carefully laid out. Thee seem to be calculated and executed. I am not althogether conviced that it is a T/C Contender, but the possibility exists. I am inclined to believe that this is not a domestic wingnut. This is beginning to demonstrate a knowledge of tactics and planning. To me that indicates that this is on cold bastard. And, there has been a couple of posts that postulate that he is getting careless etc. Hmmm.. it seems to me that the last two (where they lived) were from a GREATER distance than the previous. So, if we postulate that thee are two individuals, with only one weapon, and that the last 2 are from a second shooter, perhaps one that is jealous of the "legend" status that his compadre will have already achieved by his successful elimination of kafir and, is not quite as disciplined as the first and neglects to recover his brass from his shooting point. It is one of those things that makes you go Hmmmm....

On another front, They are only now finding the shooting points. THAT tells me that the shooter(s) did some preliminary homework. IF they are shooting from prone, then the shooting point and the location of the escape vehicle has been carefully planned.

I am extremely curious if there has been any reports of a sound signature (gunshots) heard by anyone.

I shouldn't say this, but very effective suppressor is a 2-liter Coke bottle with an "X" cut in the bottom taped to the muzzle of an AR-15. (old training has a tendancy to surface in these trying times) wouldn't attract a lot of atention if it were discarded in a trash barrel a ways away from the scene. Be assured that if this is an AQ affair, then they ahve been WELL TRAINED in field expedient methods.
