I do not think this is how "they" operate. More likely that if this is the work of small terrorist cells, they plan on doing it again, not just in DC, but in other areas of the country.

My guess is that the first few of these will be called "copy-cats", as have the various freeway shootings that have occured in the past few days.

Reaching for my ever handy tin-foil chapeau, I could position it firmly in place, and suppose that these freeway shootings are efforts made by other terrorist cells to try to disrupt freeway and interstate traffic.

I doubt that this would be very successful, as it is a lot harder to hit people in enclosed cars/trucks moving at 65mph, behind glass. But, it seems logical to assume they might try something like this.

And, on the John Walsh interview on FoxNews this morning! I nearly tossed the Post-Toasties at the screen when he was complaining that he felt "like a quarterback left on the sidelines during the superbowl" because he hadn't been included in on the hunt...

and then he went on to tout all the arrests he was personally responsible for... because of his show...

Did anyone but me think this was incredibly arrogant, and showed total insensitivity to the nature of the problem facing LE and the other Feds? I was so annoyed I felt like sending a note to Fox asking them to tell him to put a sock in it, already!

I am not impressed at all by him, and his copy-cat wannabe, Mark Klass. I find both of them trying to make a TV career after their children were murdered tasteless. And the egos! inserting themselves right in the midst of the loss of others, as if their loss has given them some divine right to be there and pontificate!

Maybe there is a law against wearing a bulletproof vest during the course of committing another crime.

fact is that area it's not odd. "Alot of the people I saw interviewed from that Home Depot shooting seemed all foreign to me... I mean not one of them spoke English as a first language... it really struck me as so odd."

The fact that a white person was choosen in that area is odd.

Second blonde woman victim. Of course we don't know of the woman that survived the Fredericksburg shooting.

Still just thinking about the solution...

It's just a guy that can't wait for deer season.

If that were true he'd be poaching, not murdering, Takes a different breed of animal to shoot a 13 year old. Besides deer is everywhere around here. Fines are steep but no one would really mind as you can't go more then a day with out seeing one dead on the side of the road.

I am reading this late (Thurs. aft.)..OMG!! I thought I was the ONLY freeper who got the "willies" looking at this guy!

I was telling a freeper friend on email how this guy gave me the creeps so bad I had chills. I thought I really belonged to the official Tin Foil Crowd when I said to myself.." this guy could be the actual sniper sitting in front of Greta just lapping all this up ! "

He had the most sickening smile on his face when he was talking about such a tragedy, didn't he ? And at the end, maybe it was just me, but I felt Greta was very uncomfortable. At the very last question (don't remember what it was) but it was serious, and he had this sickening smile on his face...like SLY smile. It was nauseating to me.

I am sooo glad to read on here that other's thought the same thing. I put my Reynolds Wrap back in the drawer.

Okay, while I have been following this thread, I had the tv on a local channel and, turned to fox in time to hear the guy swearing it was a white guy. The reasons he gave, there's no polital thing involved, blah blah blah. All the former white guys that got pissed over money lost in the stock market, (the day trader guy who shot all those people and his family in Atlanta a couple years ago) all killed themselves or that McDermott guy in Boston, when he was done, sat and waited to be arrested. The "freaked out" white guys, either are caught or kill themselves after a one day shooting bonanza.

This has been going on too long for it to be a "snap" in one person's thinking of revenge.

"I truly feel sorry for Chief Moose and many of the front-man cops on this job"

As I have posted on other threads, I find it strange that a county sheriff is the point man in a case that clearly should be under Federal jurisdiction. That in and by itself makes me suspicious.

And Chief Moose may or may not be a great cop, I really don't know, but I am very sure that he is out of his league on this one, and I think it clearly shows.

Who knows how this will finally end up but the whole thing impresses me as being very strange and I am not one that is normally giving to conspiracies theories. Nevertheless, I just keep getting the impression that the authorities are hiding something.

I wonder if there really was a Tarot Card.

I was thinking about that myself. If there was a tarot card, then it would definitely rule out terrorism.

Not to get everybody paronoid but, seems kind of funny first there are witnesses then there not.I am sure all the clues have not been let out to the press. Why the hell would you have a spy plane that has never been used in city type setting before being used now?

What will O'Reilly do, and when will he do it? Massive increase in cool and cred points, if/when he "reaches out" on this case. There are "whistleblowers" itching to "drop a cell call" on the Mooseerocity.

The Moose is trying to set up his next job - he knows how Lee Brown "worked" the Atlanta Child Murders.

Earlier this evening there was a thread on FR about a green beret saying this may be a test attack that will go nation wide when we attack Iraq.

If that happens the politicians will expect us to leave everything in their incapable hands and adjust to being targets. Given their past and current actions, or lack thereof, I have no faith that they will take one workable measure to stop it, and are unlikely to ever develop the will to stop it. Given what I see of D.C. those in politics had rather feed the aligator until it gets to them.

Yes and that is what concerns me about what may be coming down the road in the near future.

the anchor said. thank you for being here. To which he smiled and replied, "My pleasure" That caught my attention.

I didn't see the report, but it makes a little sense...
