Indeed, one takes more of a risk day to day just driving, BUT, at this point, I think the possibility of being shot at a gas station, shopping center etc. is closing in statistically. Perhaps Maryland and Virginia (there is no legal hunting in DC) will enlist hunters/others to assist in creating parameters around these and other areas, deputize them and hope they get him/her/them in their sights and take him/her/them out on the spot. I am against the death penalty, but instant justice sounds good to me...one more thing: with all the task force tied up on this one, isn't there the possibility of another strike elsewhere right now?

I am against the death penalty, but instant justice sounds good to me ...

uh ... you don't notice some little problem with logical consistency in these words?

i have often felt that many who purport to be, e.g., against the death penalty ... well ... under the right circumstances ... .

in other words, they're not really against the death penalty at all.

Um, I appreciate the sentiment, (As a Montgomery County resident and NRA member) but no flippin' way am I going to be hiding out with a rifle along with a bunch of other guys with rifles looking for someone with a rifle, and no good way to tell the sheep from the goats.
