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.

[Joe Hadenuf]

LOL

CNN info babe - for those of you in other time zones, it's 1:15 in the morning in the east and it's very, very dark out. Ha!

[Partisan Hack]

Beware: Howlin is getting a-n-g-r-y and frustrated (shivers).

His ignorance scares me. Someone once told me that you can be arrogant or you can be ignorant; just not both.

[edwin hubble]

Hang in there, Howlin.
You're doing great work.

For all the super-patriots...

We are at war here.

and, by the way... all those being questioned have long since been released

[Howlin]

Exactly. Thanks for arriving with the facts.

[Route66]

Fox was quick to point out the Lt.Goodman did a GOOD job of handling that briefing. He handled the press very well. Said "I'm here for you"...to the press. Said he would give updates at the bottom and top of the hour if they wanted. He was off to get more info. Cool.

[abner]

I didn't say he had the same politics. ;-)

Turn the volume down when he comes on again, Elton I tell you...

[Travis McGee]

I'll repost it on a shorter sniper thread and ping you! LOL!

[ApesForEvolution]

I'm there Fred! I'm all about solutions, and at the same time, not hysterically wandering into a police state and thus letting terrorists win and encouraging them!.

[DAnconia55]

So far, since I abide by the Constitution and the laws, I'm NOT in danger of having to worry about what the police might find in my house or my car.

And when the law is changed so you can't post on FR as a GOP parrot? Gonna let them in and search your computer, without a warrant?

[browardchad]

But they don't have a suspect vehicle. The white van has been ruled out by officials. So, without a suspect vehicle, then what?

From another thread:

Sat Oct 19,10:43 PM ET
An unidentified man lies handcuffed on the ground next to his white van at a gas station in Stafford, Virginia, October 19, 2002. Law enforcement are stopping and handcuffing all drivers in white vans that fit a description in the current Washington area.

Now what was it you were saying about white vans?

[Diddle E. Squat]

Apparently someone there is!

[Alberta's Child]

I will allow my vehicle to be searched under any circumstances, but only if the people who are searching it agree to deputize me and promise not to answer any 911 calls involving a person fitting my description doing what I think is best to resolve the situation.

[Joe Hadenuf]

and the next news conference is in 2 minutes.........

[rintense]

That doesn't solve the sniper case. Again, what would you do to catch the sniper?

[Howlin]

You can assume whatever you want; I'd be glad to answer your question, but first how about telling me -- since you're such a great student of it -- exactly WHERE in the Constitution it says that my rights, the ones I live by, for and with in this country -- eminate from God.

[College Repub]

Exactly. If there ever arrived a point some time in the future where the majority of the population disagreed with and didn't uphold the constitution then those rights wouldn't exist anymore because no one would be making sure they do. The people that say those rights come from G-d would have to believe that if this point ever came that G-d would step in and save us. He doesn't for the other countries of the world so why would he for us?

[Howlin]

That's an AP headline; when have they ever been right. Nobody else is reporting that.

And I'm talking about the handcuff stuff, not the color of the van.

[Balata]

LOL! I'm sure you must of left something out but I don't know what it is or if it matters. ;^)
