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.

[Arkinsaw]

Well, then let's be sure to put you down as not willing to open the trunk of your car, but fine with people killing other Americans.

Ah, I expect the government to be bound by the Constitution therefore its fine with me for people to kill other Americans.

Does that really strike you as a logical argument?

[Howlin]

If you own a gun or a white van, you are the sniper...

Who said that. Name and date, please.

[rintense]

He looks like Carroll O'Connor.

[js1138]

Don't look at me. I'm just quoting.

[GummyIII]

Compound near Lynchburg? I want to know more. I'm not far from there. And when I say not far, it's less than an hour drive.

[GOPJ]

My father use to tell us the old quote about a coward dies a thousand deaths. The rest of us only die once. I agree with you statement.

Maybe it's like some patriot somewhere said, "I'd rather die on my feet than live on my knees"...I guess that's where I'm at...

It's not the game that scares me, it's the sniper story that spoke of two teams of snipers (Team Shadow Warriors) Shadow and Glimmer live in Hampton/Newport News area. Two other characters in the story are Rusty and Knuckles. This story spoke of picking off pepole and leaving the death tarot card. The tip line pulled the story the day after I reported it but Google still has the story. Plus many other things I have found can be seen at my own theory thread. "Coinsidences?" Also, Shadow Warriors is the sniper game with invincable "God Mode".

Have no confirmation one way or the other if shooting related to sniper shootings; shot came out of the darkness; man shot is not from Virginia, is a traveler, stopped to eat at Ponderosa; they are treating as if this is sniper related until they know that it is not; I-95 is open, but traffic being monitored, including all exits.

[Iscool]

I think there'll be more around the country unless we get lucky and squash this one in some kind of impressive way.

I think it's a little too late for that...

[Mo1]

Public Schools???

[Howlin]

I'll bet you $50 that guy on the ground was NOT cuffed because he was driving a white van.

[concerned about politics]

Not only what you wrote, but in Steven Emerson's American Jihad, in the chapter about Hamas, he writes about "Musa abu Marzook, a resident of Falls Church, Virginia" and "a major Hamas leader"...

Yep. They know who's doing this, but they can't catch them. They need a dead person in the right place to do it.

"What authoritative proof can you supply to support your wildly false assertion that handgun proficiency can be swiftly taught while rifle proficiency is much harder to acquire. "

I agree with you, I have been a hobby shrp shooter for 15 years now. I have fired .223, 038, 30-06, 243, 22, and 270. in supported positions I can easily put 3 shot groupings to within .50" in 200 yrds. and at 400 yards I can put a group within an inch. I just started firing handguns this year and I am lucky to get a 3 shot group within 6 inches of each other at 20yrds freestance, but in assisted positions I find groupings within 1.5 inches. (I have now fired about 1,000 rounds with a glock.

[rintense]

I swear my handle gets 'profiled' all the time. Like a chick can't be intense or something. ;)

[nicmarlo]

First officer arrived within 2 1/2 minutes of call being placed.

[M1911A1]

This is why most armed forces are adopting handguns to replace their difficult-to-master rifles. ;)

[thatdewd]

...what about the british?

If Katie Kouric were here she'd be quick to point out they were white guys with guns. :)

[texasbluebell]

You're right! I wasn't being very literal.

[Eva]

I heard someone saying that on FOX, but I didn't know who was talking. He sounded like an idiot.

[Howlin]

You'd rather DIE than open your car trunk?
