This isn't aimed at you exclusively but I can't take it anymore.

Get a freaking grip

How many people died on the beltway yesterday? So the odds of dying via sniper are slightly higher than the odds you face everyday when you get in your car. Do you cower at home for fear of dying in a car wreck? I can't believe the level of fear I am seeing from the area.

We have to grow a collective spine or we won't deserve freedom.

What the hell has happened to the people in this country?

What the hell has happen to FR? This is only the second or
third time I have read anything like your comment. Seems
like fear rules, even here.

Dying in a car accident doesn't involve forethought and malice. Whenever my children leave home driving, I'm naturally worried until they return. But when a killer is randomly targeting innocents and even killing children, most parents will be fearful for their children's lives. Fear can lead to caution. I don't see it a bad thing.

"Get a freaking grip...how many people died on the beltway yesterday. (Post 97)

Respectfully, I understand what you ar trying to say, but you are being very unfair. Car accidents are just that...accidents. This is deliberate. Just because the odds are low doesn't mean it can't happen.

A psychologist on Fox this morning said that the officials statements telling everyone to "just live their lives" is in his exact words, "BULLCRAP".

BTW, I've had two friends die several years apart after being struck by lightening. Odds on that are astronomical. Odds mean little to those of us who live or have family there.

Flame away, I don't care.
