This is unreal. No suspect or suspect vehicle.

That's what police officer said to Rita.

WMAL: victim was conscious when he arrived at hospital. That's a good sign.

My darling husband reenacts Patrick Henry's speech up at St. Johns. (He's really really good, too)

Does he do it at Redhill for the Fourth of July. We went there for the Fourth one year and it was fabulous. They opened up the house to everyone and they had re-enactments of many speeches, etc. and we watched fireworks from his lawn.

What I don't understand is if the shooting occurred nearly 3 hours ago, don't you think the suspect/s would be long gone by now - out of range of their localized searches???

I find it astounding that a discussion about rights.

What "civil rights" do you want to limit?

The SOLE purpose of the United States government is to defend our Rights as a Free people.

I, for one, will NOT surrender any of my God-given Rights, which millions have fought and died for, just because a few panty-wearing sissies are "afraid" of a bunch of sand goblins who were let into this country by the same government which seeks to restrict our Rights.

We have unguarded and open borders coupled with loose immigration policies. Hell, the State dept. is even holding lotteries to allow people from terrorist countries to come here. Many local governments are even recognizing ID's from a foreign country (Mexico) here. So now, the murderous goblins don't even have to get US identification. They can just go to Mexico and get ID cards there.

As long as these policies continue, how can any American possibly consider surrendering their Rights?

By the way, our "leaders" have said this "war" might last 100 years. Are you for surrendering our liberties for 100 years? This is not even taking into account the awful effects a "police state" will have on our economy. Eventually, it will destroy it, and we will be nothing more than a nation of 300 million slaves competing against a world of 6 billion slaves? Want to guess who will win that? Of course, maybe that's the plan.

I really don't see the impact of this (mass fear, significant change of lifestyles, economic impact) as being small. Well thought out, if anything.

I don't consider any of this as "small" actually--I was replying to someone else who used that word, and had just quoted his/her response. You must not have noticed the italics I used to quote the other person's comment!

And I agree, it seems very well-thought out.

Let's hope they get him this time and make it the last time. TV 9 is reporting the press conference will be any minute now.

"this should make the Sunday am talk shows" Sure,and what a great opportunity to get Tom Ridge or Ashcroft to talk about Dasholes failure to get a Homeland Security bill passed. Then right in the middle of meet the depressed old Timmy two face will bring up the tax cuts again.

"Why do you think he picked this restaurant, there's lots of other restaurants he could have picked."

I know. What a moron. Rita: “Uh, Dr., we all know where this restaurant is, why weren't the police there waiting?”
