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.

"God did not make all men equal, Colonel Colt did"

That was a little saying from the frontier, and it illustrates your point. God may indeed wish us all to have certain rights, but it is up to us to defend them, unless The Allmighty sees fit to send some bolts from the blue to aid the cause of freedom.

Damn, I think I missed him.... Ted Williams is a kick!

The Friday of the first week, the sniper hit in Frederickburg and had the weekend off.

The next Friday, he hit NEAR Fredericksburg and had the weekend off.

This weekend, he did not hit until Sunday but it is still relative to Fredericksburg.

Correct me gently if I'm wrong. I'm very tired.

Doubtful the sniper has TV in his box truck.

Why not? You can get a little tiny LCD (color though) TV, that you can carry in your hand, at Radio Shack, and other places.

Man, I loved that game!

[Mad_Tom_Rackham]

Heh heh. Game. Set. Match. :O)

[relee]

I think you are correct.

Elton John was interviewed by CNN after the last press conference and was asked about the stopping of white vans.......he responded that the reason for focusing on 'white vans' was because of past incidents and not because of anything that anyone saw that was related to tonight's incident.

So if you aren't a Christian then you don't belong here or you are contribuiting to the downfall of the country. You are the reason republicans no longer hold both houses of congress and barely lost the popular vote for presidency. I hope you sleep well at night.

Congratualations, you killed the thread. Ad hominems are strictly forbidden on Free Republic. I know that threads often do disintegrate to personal attacks, but posters are often banned if the problem persists.

[Joe Hadenuf]

Oh Lord, another press conference!

[Arkinsaw]

How childish. Your "god" grants me nothing.

Its a rhetorical device for saying that human beings have fundamental rights just because they are sentient beings. It was written as a reference to the western philosophy of natural human rights. You shouldn't be offended at the reference.

I'd switch my affiliation to whichever group was voting to ammend ;)

I take it the current is now flowing through the filament above your head?

[rintense]

BWAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAAHAHA!!!!

My theory is with the Air Force surveillance planes in D.C.

They are Army surveillance planes, RC-7 and U-21.

[Diddle E. Squat]

Umm, isn't that the attitude that Bin Laden and his ilk are taking in Bali, Indonesia, the Phillipines, and the Middle East?

[Thumper1960]

"And if someone doesn't believe in God, he has no rights, right?"

Sigh.......
Never said that. He/she may not have "salvation". They still have rights, granted by God, recognized as such by better men than we and defended by those who cherish those rights.

[Senator Pardek]

And may you get a bunk with the Reverend Sharpton and Father Coughlin.
