FOXNEWS just reported that another shooting has happened in the DC area (Prince George?). A man was shot an killed at a gas station.

I've got a .308 that will do that to 1000 yd. Sighted in the new scope today for the coyotes - BTW dont forget to put your earplugs back in - I'm still deaf & nursing a headache.

If someone made a custom .50 shooting subcalibre ammo, it would do 1500 - 2000 yd easy.

Carlos Hathcock did 2500 yd with a stock M2 .50 in Nam.

What is in common ... most certainly Michael's. Gas Stations? Are there two or three that have been shot at gas stations? Something to do with oil?

I think they added the September Liquor Store shooting as #1 and bumped all the rest down one number.

It's a little frustrating. I fully support the idea of hitting the ground and diving for cover but it shouldn't take that long to do a quick lookaround and see where the killer[s] are going.
Is Maryland and those parts around the Capitol so screwed up that the people can't show a little initiative?

Years ago, my parked car was hit and I ran out of my apartment barefoot in the snow and started to chase down the hit and run vehicle. Someone else saw the car accident and noticed me running down the street in pursuit. The stranger picked me up in his car and we searched the neighborhood until we found the car. We also found the driver and called the police. This was over a lousy car accident. Have times changed that someone can't help out a little? Frustrating.

Some isreali snipers use shotguns. The search function on ar15.com is down, so I can't find a link to the article.

No 7 on this map was No. 6 on the old map. No 8 & 9 on this map lies parallel with the east line of DC. They were 7 & 8 on the other map.

Did they add the window hit at Michael's (with no victim)? Is that what No. 1 is now??

this is like one of those pics where you have to study it to see a hidden pic. I wish I could add the red dot from dec on the pic on the right..and change the numbers cuz right now #3 on teh left side looks like it's in the wrong place. Maybe I'm just looking at it too hard.

press conference will begin soon.

I don't know where this would or might fit in but August 2, is Lammas.

August 2 Lammas - Celtic
Lammas, or Lughnassad, occurs in late July and early August. It marks the middle of Summer and the beginning of the harvest. It is the first of three harvest festivals and is usually associated with ripening grain. With the coming of Christianity to the Celtic lands, the old festival of Lughnasadh took on Christian symbolism. Loaves of bread were baked from the first of the harvested grain and placed on the church altar on the first Sunday of August. The Christianized name for the feast of Lughnasadh is Lammas which means "loaf mass"...

They are both somewhat ambiguous, to say the least.

Kennedy High School.

Nevermind..I added one to each number on the right pic and figured it out. Now it's time to hit the hay.. LOL I can't read anymore. :)

On what channels? All the major news networks are re-runs.

Press conference will begin soon. Glad I don't have to go to work tomorrow.

I don't know exactly where Wiccans fall into the new age/alternative religion business - but it won't be the first time Pagans have tried to take ancient Hebrew or Christian meanings as their own.

[Brytani]

I grew up in Maryland and while it might have to do with the areas we live in, we always had neighbors willing to help out in anyway possible. Times have changed all over, it's a sad fact of our lives.

WMAL AM 630 went to the live feed for a minute, then to some commercials. During the live feed a man was saying that the crime scene is in Prince William County, even though the gas station has a Manassas address.
