Anyone who would rather be shot by a .223 than a 45ACP is an idiot. .223 has far more energy and if using expanding bullet, will literally explode in its target. Even FMJ bullet will yaw severly, about 180 degrees all told, depending on the thickness of the target along the path, and break into two major pieces, plus smaller fragments. If he/they had been using disintegrating bullets, there'd be no ballistic matches.

I had seen diagrams of the insides of barrels and was surprised to see the design. But forgive my terminology..I thought the inside of the barrel looked like a big spiral. Neways..I was obviously incorrect in it's purpose. Thank you for splaining.

Prayers for the victims souls, Prayers for their loved ones, Prayers for those living in fear, Prayers for the people entrusted to catch this perp. God Bless America.

I had not heard that anyone was in the car when the last victim was hit. It is my understanding that the little boy had stepped away from his aunt's vehicle when he was hit.

Violate the rights of thousands of American citizens? Wait, are you talking about Abraham Lincoln during the Civil War? :-)

Unless this first "cell" is setting the pattern and putting together the play book for the rest to be activated later. Even if it isn't a cell at all and is instead a domestic perp- or more than one...
...you can bet other folks are going to get ideas from this. This will likely be entered into the 'manual of terrorism techniques.' The responses of the police forces will also be studied carefully.

Seven Corners is but one property that is owned by SAUL CENTERS. Here is a map of SAUL CENTER properties around MD, VA, DC from their website,

I meant to say so many people seem to be seeing people who ARE darker complected.
Sorry
To: Kip Lange
Yes, it seems just toooo soon after the news on the marine and his girlfriend etc..
It's almost like....no, it can't be him, I'm over here...but it may be to divert our attention away from the ex-marine and girlfriend and this may be a larger group than we think.

our family has been looking at the Table that brigette put together for FR.com. We said last night that the next victim (praying that there wasn't going to be one) would be white. I posted this theory at FR right after Friday Shooting...

Just because they aren't saying what direction the vehicle was traveling in doesn't mean they don't know. There's a lot they aren't telling us about.Well if they would of had a direction of travel, there is a good chance they could have cut off and cornered the perp. If this was the case, we would be witnessing a live shoot out or a massive standoff by now.....Don't you think?

That part you have correct - it does look like a spiral. But it causes the round to spin, not tumble.
To: ~Kim4VRWC's~
If you don't mind, please drop by the Prayer thread.. Thanks for posting this - my husband commutes to Rockville every week and I've been praying since it all began.

No, other victims have been with someone. As someone remarked already, the child was with his aunt. And the man at the gas station last week was with his wife, who was in the car while he was pumping gas. I think that was the Manassas shooting.

Yea...that goes without saying...but I'd bet he's watching people walk through his scope thinking "who should I kill today"....
To: Kip Lange
I read on FR this afternoon that we were going to code orange. Posters said they heard it on MSNBC, but I haven't seen any other confirmation.

Did I get the 1000th post?

"A very tough nut, if this is terrorism." Yup, I know and agree. I will start 'packing' again everywhere I go though. No telling what they may start....tomorrow, huh?
