What would you do to catch the sniper?

Use the Nat'l Emergency Broadcast System (you know that radio thingy that gets tested periodically) to get the word out immediately that another sniper attack has occurred. Ask all drivers to be on the look out for whatever.

There's a man on with John Gibson now, Van Hipp, saying AQ training manuals specifically mention drive by shootings, and shootings from golf courses. Also, on FOX, saying police now searching wooded area.

You seem to overlook the numerous Palestinian terrorists caught by the Israeli roadblocks.

And million of more Americans are going to die because we have no safety.

And then I think of the statement that George Tenet made just a few days ago, to the effect that this is like it was right before 9-11.

We should prepare ourselves for something big soon.

"I happen to know that in ten minutes at 60mph you can be 60 miles away."

really? what do you think MPH stands for?

Well, allowing for red lights and traffic blocking your exit from the crime scene, ten minutes for 60 miles is probably a good guesstimate.

I somehow just cannot imagine if this were happening in George Washington's time or Patrick Henry's time, that, when learning that someone had been shot by an enemy (most likely) he would say, "Well don't ask my help! I have my rights you know!" Their response would have been "How can I help? Martha, get me my gun!"

Yeah, and the minute Washington (in today's world) stepped out of his house with his rifle to "help", armed SWAT teams would either put him down or arrest him, and he'd get 20 years in jail.

You're making my point for me.

You know what? The sniper didn't have to use Hwy 95, because Hwy 1 runs right beside it back into Richmond and right by a mosque, right there in North Richmond. How bout that.

No, I liked the quote - I didn't realize it was connected to opening the trunk. (Is this my version of going 60 miles in 10 minutes at 60 MPH? The thread is moving too fast for me...) Trust me, I would open the trunk. We might not know we're at war, but I fear our enemies know they're at war with us.

You'd rather DIE than open your car trunk?

Correct. There hasn't been any credible evidence for vehicles- including tonight.

Report to your nearest police station with all of your .223 rifles, and bring your papers please.

If you are not the sniper you shouldn't mind. If you are not the sniper you shouldn't mind us checking all of your records to determine where you have been and at what times for the last few weeks. If you are not the sniper you shouldn't mind opening your trunk. If you are not the sniper you shouldn't mind giving us a DNA sample so that we can match it up with evidence when we get it. If you are not the sniper you shouldn't mind telling us about your neighbors. If you are not the sniper you shouldn't mind us smartening up you gun a little bit so that it reports to a central registry when it is fired. Etc., Etc. You have nothing to fear if you are not the sniper and do as you are told.

Why are you even on this thread? You're NOT posting about the Breaking News.

Oh, you're one of the SUPER PATRIOTS, right? The one who has the ORIGINAL copy of the Constitution, the one WE don't understand, right?

You're here to mock the people who care MORE about the safety of this country than we do about ourselves.

Rintense is the Republican Warrior Princess.

The only royalty I recognize. Definely female, but deadly.
