"We're Confused. You Decide"

LOL! Unfortunately, that is my view of Fox News these days...I started to have my doubts about them with the Eunice Stone incident.

It will give the green light for every sleeper cell in the country to open fire Taking guns away will ONLY be bad for AMERICANS, not anyone meaning to cause us harm. I sure hope they do not expect anyone to turn in their guns. I just assume bury them in the backyard.

Providing this cowardly scum with more unarmed targets is a tough option. Were they armed, they'd stand a chance of doing better than just screaming (perhaps) and bleeding (definitely). This predation happens where there is lots of helpless game...not where there are other critters with teeth. How the libs. foist their totalitarian lies is an evil mystery to me, but I have confidence that when our nation takes enough beating over it, they'll sober up and smell the real coffee...and face and accept what's going on, and take the obvious steps, throwing out the feel-good fantasies of the lefty media, educational and political shell-game players. The mail is in. Time to read it, and soldier on.

With all this activity, the ball could be dropped my this vermin, and the odds are rapidly building against him/her/them/it

gotta agree with you there, poor mutt....the more activity, the higher the odds he/she/it/scum is going to screw up. (naturally I'm not saying I'm glad people are getting shot....heck...I'm a mom living not too far from the area with kids in elementary school...who are SICK AND TIRED of having indoor recess. however...dragging it over one shot here and there over several months would be sheer torture....exhaust the LEOs....exhaust the people in the area....my heart is breaking already for the families).

SMIP!

I bet its a bunch of liberals.

The Brady antigun donations are at rock bottom. The gun issue fell flat on its face after 9/11. Million Moms bought guns!

There's also ELF. They said they were going to destroy society as we know it, because we aren't listening to them.

WTOP radio still discussing whether or not this is the same shooter. I shudder to think that there might be more then one person or group of people doing this now....like a copycat.

No, I think that was a separate incident. The one at the school in Bowie Md had no incident.

a woman driver, driving erratically, as though not knowing which way to go, sped away

Like that hardly ever happens, on 95 or anywhere else! ;)

Why wouldn't it be the same shooter? I haven't really checked but were any of the shootings done at the same time or around the same time? If they were than it was more than one. But if it wasn't then he knows shortcuts and the areas he can easily get away and go somewhere else while the police are scrambling in one area. Then again I don't know the area at all cause I am a New YAWWWKER!!! ;-)

I dunno, I thought maybe post some guardsmen at intersections, near schools, etc. A random smattering to give the killer some pause as he drives around - maybe slow down the kill rate.

And to be on the watch as vehicles speed by: maybe if they get notice something has happened nearby, they can keep their eyes peeled and spot a suspicicious drive-away.

And maybe, just maybe get lucky and catch the perp as he tries to set up another hit and save a life or two.

"Right/Good vs. Left/Evil"

"In the words of Thomas Paine, "These are the times that try men's souls." In the midst of danger, we have the opportunity to see people as they really are, defenses down, forced out into the open. We see people display a strength and character we never knew they had. We also see crass opportunism, hypocrisy and exploitation more clearly than ever before. We rethink. We change our minds.
On the positive side, I always believed President George W. Bush would be a good leader; I now know that the crisis in America tapped the greatness in him. He will lead us on a hard and dangerous journey to victory. He will advance the cause of America as "one nation, indivisible, under God, with liberty and justice for all."
On the negative side, there is no longer any doubt in my mind that the American Civil Liberties Union (ACLU) is an anti-God organization, whose primary goal is the establishment of religious apartheid in America. All doubts evaporated when this hideous group of left-wing legal zealots demanded that Breen Elementary School in Rocklin, Calif., remove a message on a marquee in front of the school that said, "God Bless America."
The ACLU declared that these three words were "a hurtful, divisive message." This ideological assault on God and country tells all thinking Americans everything they need to know about this twisted organization."
The names of the people who contribute to the ACLU should be revealed and widely broadcast."

There are certainly EvilAmericans in our midst...MUD

I just assume that they are all the same shooter or, as being reported, group of shooters. Not seperate. To my knowledge there have not been two reported shootings in different locations at the same time.

I am your neighbor here in New Jersey.

This tip sounds a little weird.
Maybe she got scared, and was somewhere she shouldn't have been.....heard the shot and wanted to get out of there.

Howdy Neighbor! You could be right. But I realize that when I go away and start driving around the local areas it only takes a few times before I find my way around without a map. I wonder if there are any off road (i.e. dirt roads) that he can swing onto and wait until the excitement has died down and then sneak on home after that. The police should not only check the highways but any off roads in the area.
