This could be an incremental step in a master plan by Al Qaida to ramp up terror in this country. Perhaps this sniper was sort of a "trial run" to guage how effective this technique is. If true, I'm afraid to say it was a big success (in the eyes of the terrorists). The entire country has become fixated on this sniper. Everywhere I went this weekend, people would ask if I heard anything new regarding "the sniper." Now if similar killings are suddenly made in the NYC area and then the LA area and so on, this will become as large in the public eye as the events on 9/11.
Don't write it off as "not terrorism" just yet.
