I'm just catching up and noticed many people assume the perps are ME because of the message they wrote. They could be ME, but if they are, it won't be because of the message. So I'm reposting the following:
-----------------------------
Check out the Google result for "Dear Mr. Policeman" + "I am God":
The whole page is quite interesting, but go to the 2 highlighted parts, both further down the thread. I think the perps are too smart to leave the police a message with stuff they wrote on the internet, so I'd assume the perps have been lurking on that site and got the idea for their message from the posts . They could be trying to set them up too...

I've said all along "Dear Mr. Policeman: I know where you live, where your wife shops and where your kids go to school. Have a nice day!" ......
Do ya'll remember Detective Mark Fuhrman during the OJ Simpson trial? (He's the one who lied about saying the "N" word)...Remember what he said? "Out there I AM God!".... ALL cops think alike. Those who don't, quit.....

Once again, it doesn't rule out ME, but the message is NOT why we should suspect they're foreigners...
I'm more inclined to think that the perp is doing these shootings to show that we need to arm our citizens. To show that LE can't protect people.
Having said that I doubt a set up, but perhaps someone making the ultimate sacrifice, in hopes that it may show the government that only an armed people can defend themselves.
I'm not saying that the shooter is right for taking innocent life, just that he/they may see it as being 'for the greater good'.
The tarot card then becomes a means by which certain people would understand what is going on.
Just a guess, imho.
