[with serial killers], one detects an eruption of uncontrollable fury at work, and such episodes simply do not admit of the kind of careful scouting and intricate planning to escape that has characterized the D.C. killings.

The killings began just before the one-year anniversary of the American invasion of Afghanistan . . . [and coincide with] recent attacks in Kuwait, Yemen, and Bali. . .

. . . it has been trumpeted that the locations of the shootings have been "random" - but of course they have not.

. . . we must now look beyond this somewhat obvious theory [of a serial killer/white angry militant], with its horribly comfortable familiarity, to the even more terrifying possibility that a new kind enemy is conducting an unprecedented kind of campaign within our borders

And as many have pointed out, there have been 9 killed out of 11 hit. Now a long, unexplainable, lull.....coincidence? I think not. Excellent article and analysis.

Since there have been conspiracy theories posted, I thought I'd get mine in, as farfetched as it may be.

What if the "sniper" is some nut who wanted to kill one specific person, but knew that he would be an immediate suspect if that person were murdered? Now, his victim is just one of many and the police are not looking for motives for each inividual killing.

I said some nut.

9/11 means nothing. See #87.

S/He or they are waiting for the weekend . It was all over the media Monday that shooter(s) went two weekends without shooting, so following the pattern means proving everyone wrong and doing it ON the weekend. I sure hope I'm wrong, but you have to look at it.
