Hanover County Shooting [Ashland, Virginia- North of Richmond]

[William McKinley]

Just reported. Took place outside of a Ponderosa Steakhouse. Not sure if it is related or not at this time. Police have shut down parts of I-95.

you will never BE a cop   turning the other cheek on your low and classless reply

[McLynnan]

Let the traffic move, but keep ramps closed.

I think this is an exercise in futility. The shooter was long gone before the 911 call was made. The sniper knows the drill by now and is too smart to get caught on I-95.

"Nope, the muslims will all be gone before then. Trust me."

yup!

[OXENinFLA]

To all who believe this is a 'police state action', I humble ask: WHAT WOULD YOU DO?

Arm Everyone!!!!

[Jim Noble]

>>Nope, the muslims will all be gone before then. Trust me<<

Do you really think so?

If so, why are they still here?

[Howlin]

I agree with you. Granted, I'm out of the loop on the news, but literally nothing else makes sense to me.

[edwin hubble]

I was impressed with the professionalism of the Hanover sherrif's staff on camera.

Our area's police are re-assuring and impressive.

[Mo1]

WOW .. what's going on with that dude??

[concerned about politics]

The assassin needs the time to lay low and still be able to drive back to Maryland tomorrow.

Are there Mosks near these shootings? Or Muslim communities close by? There's a clue.

[CyberAnt]

Me too! And ... rintense, I think your idea of the van being a ruse is a good one.

Earlier, someone said there were always motels (not that uncommon) by the offramps where the shootings took place. Driving there would have been relatively easy, while the cops are busy running up and down the freeway. How about the shooter sitting in the motel watching the whole circus on TV - to get his jollies.

[rintense]

Well I can think of six Muslim friends of mine who I trust more than other friends. And they work within the Jewish and Christian communtiy- with Rabbis and Ministers- to work for peace.

[Letitring]

I agree and all Moose wants to do is have one hissy fit after another, get camera time saying he has nothing to say. I am totally disgusted with him and his investagative abilities.

[wardaddy]

I agree Darlin.

[Kevin Curry]

I still say 60/40 it's ME related terror . . .

I agree. I believe the longer this goes on without the killer being caught, the more likely it is MR-related terror and the more likely it involves one or at most two or three people. That is, the killer is his own autonomous cell or a member of a very small and internally-loyal autonomous cell. I suspect telephone calls are not being placed and email is not being exchanged between the killer(s) and home base, because our spooks would almost certainly have zeroed in on them--particularly once the message traffic leaves the US.

The killer seems to be demonstrating blood-chilling discipline and caution. I tend to believe he is not a home-grown psychotic--but a Muslim zealot with a rifle.

[GirlShortstop]

That, sir, is not our constitutional government. This logic is simply anarchy.    Touché!

[WarSlut]

What local(s) would that place his base?

That would put the perps in the parking lot of the Hani Hanjour Memorial Mosque in Falls Church, VA.

[hole_n_one]

He's driving a white van......

bummer!

[AGreatPer]

14-14. Told you before hit happened.

Just wait until Moose hears this and has his fit and shuts down the entire investigation, etc.

There have now been more shootings outside of the state of Maryland than in -- when are they going to replace Moose?
