Tail light out on rear of white Astrovan, driven by olive-skinned man. Whackjob? Copycat? Al Queda?
I have heard that al queda prefers white SUV's.

So if you're the government, with all these pans on the stove coming to boil, what do you do? You do what FDR did in 1942.

"So if you're the government, with all these pans on the stove coming to boil, what do you do?" What? I'm waiting...and don't say martial law.

Alternating Black <-> White shooting pattern....
Last 7 shootings!

11 Black Male
10 White Male
09 Black Boy
08 White Woman (I think this was a woman at Michaels)
07 Black Man
06 White Woman
1-5 Shootings was Meant to generate Media and Police attention.
I'm thinking the Sniper is shooting people equally who
are mostly associated to Historical America...White and Black race.
I'm thinking this could be Terrorist related.

No bets tonight.
Do you have the Seattle-San Fran game on? Al Michaels just quoted a famous line from a poem, and then asked, "Who wrote that? Barbara Steisand, Shakespeare,?..."
To: 11th_VA
thinking a bit more after asking, it occurs that, depending on the time of the call,
the pentagon would be quite a haul from the corners, assuming normal weeknight traffic ...

Yes, this is the first victim to be shot while with another person. All victims prior to this evening were alone.
To: Joe Hadenuf
It does if you understand the terrain and road system and sight barriers which exist in that area. From the Home Depot one might see the van leave but it might have gone several different ways because it would have been out of sight within a few seconds.
To: Kip Lange
Anybody else think there might be a connection between the two "witnesses" and then the immediate strikes? To prove something, etc?

Way out on a limb here, but what about star maps? Perhaps the dots coincide with stars in a constellation? Or the first targets being stars farther away and following closer with the numbers order or vice versa? Eh, that'd be well nigh impossible to figure what with the huge variety of star maps available. Dunno.

He may not have a lot of choice. Given the amount of traffic in that area, once you are stuck, you ain't got a lot of choice in the matter. And, if someone is driving along on a side street and sees a "cream Astro van with a broken taillight", he's more likely to call the cops with a report.
To: Redcloak
Why a certain craft supply store? Quite possibly because you can't swing a cat around here without hitting a Michael's. Or it could be that the shooter has heard all the media to-do about the "Michael's Connection" and has decided to toy with us by creating a meaningless pattern for us to chew on.
To: madison10
I don't think the sniper reads FR. He'd become addicted like everyone else. (sarcasm). I can't believe I'm back on another sniper thread. I think we all want a satisfactory conclusion to this but if it's Al Quaeda, we have to dismantle all the cells and we need to get on it. Where's that Homeland Security Bill?
To: relee
TV 5 reporter in Rockville is saying the Task Force has a number of suspects under surveillance and the suspects are dropped off the list if a shooting happens while the suspect is being followed. That only works if there isn't more than one shooter.

that's one thing that pi$$es me off - the sicko(s) doing this probably think they are very clever for not getting caught, and are playing a game in their head, but the reality is that just abut anyone could go around killing people one-by-one for a long time without getting caught if they are careful and only kill one person ever so often, like is happening here. The guy may be a decent shot, but he ain't clever, and he isn't great. He's just sick enough to do it, and, even as sick and stupid as our culture has become, most people in our society still are not sick enough to do this, and plain old have better (understatement, I know) things to do. It really bothers me that whover is doing this probably thinks he/she/they are doing something skillful and difficult.
I'm going to go pray - it's time for this bastard to be stopped.
To: GeorgeandtheDralgore
Say it ain't so, Joe... :o(
Any pursuit would have to be on foot. When they shut down these highways pursuit becomes both impossible and unnecessary.
