So What? Did anyone see them shoot? Did anyone see them with a weapon? Did anyone bother to notice which way they fled?

Yes to all three. Where have you been?

I thought so too, at first. Evidently she wasn't the only one who saw this. LEO's have shown "several" people some pictures of various guns in order to have them ID the type they saw. I've heard an AK-15 (CNN), something else on MSNBC. Sorry, I don't know guns and have no idea what they are speaking of when they describe them.

So -- is it a slow news month? Remember how it was 24-7 Condit fever last summer. This seems like the same thing - really. The ads being played on the cable channels seems to prove it. Reminds me of our local news...

"A serial killer breaks out of custody and kills a woman -- could she be your mother or wife? Found out at 11..."

Look for safe-houses (or more accurately) safe-garages to be the reason these guys haven't been caught on the roadways

I agree....Active Al Queda cell.

Always before, the shooter has taken up a comfortable private spot to shoot from. Either:
1) He finally found his target (FBI analyst) or
2) Something spooked/rushed him causing him to change his plan

OR, it was a different set of snipers..part of the team..

"I've heard an AK-15 (CNN), something else on MSNBC"

Isn't that Muslim Extremist weapon of choice?

I wonder if the plane will see the muzzle flashes in bad weather?

The radar works in any weather and can still track a fleeing vehicle...

How many Mexican (or hispanic) snipers have you ever heard about? Gang shootings with guns in neighborhoods, yes (although knives are another weapon of choice), but rifle snipers? Hispanic? Not their modus operendi. Perhaps if a hispanic trained in the military, but otherwise, just isn't a hispanic type of thing. Also, this kind of sniping is right in the Al Queda how-to-do terrorism training book. So why would they teach this kind of mayhem, and then have no one carry it out? Sniping, and bombing, and shooting ARE part of their terrorist lessons, so it looks like some cell is now trying it out. My fear is that this will spread to other states at some point.

They're going to constantly downplay the middle east angle until it is conclusive (by capture or kill). That is because they are greatly concerned about the public reaction to the news around the country (which could be severe).

WHEREAS if it is a white male they will just go ahead and confiscate all the guns of law-abiding Americans. Not a harmful reaction to the gun=grabbers! i can bet the gun-grabbers are rooting for it being a 'domestic terrorist'. no, i dont have to bet, the antigun ads are out, and capitol hill is already restless.
