The difference is this: "the police are not sure if it is related to the sniper," incites FEAR and creates more interest than simply stating the fact. Which is,
it is too early in the investigation to determine if this is related to the sniper.You may not see a difference, but believe me, there are plenty of people who have been hunkered down in the MD., DC., and VA. area, who hear and interpet this very differently.

J. Gibson said they have a possible second shooting just before he left for the night. Now Rita is on and she has not mentioned it yet.

"Turns out, www.sniperwatch.com uses FreeRepublic for its breaking news, so it links right back to us!" Seems we are getting more famous all the time. Actually, "they" link back for two reasons. First, FR is really the only (and best) place to follow this story live and second, the person who runs sniperwatch.com is a Freeper. Me.

I tend to think that Americans are starting to turn into wimps.......once, when I was about eight months pregnant, two friends and I were driving up the interstate in Maine. We saw a car in front of us lose control and roll over. I made my friend stop the car, and a number of others stopped as well. However, none of the big strong MEN that had stopped bothered to go over to the car until they saw ME waddling over to see if the guy was okay.
As far as the sniper goes, I am convinced that there is more than one and they are ME terrorists. I read a great book by John Douglas, the man that pioneered the FBI's profiling unit. It was all about spree killers, mass murderers, and serial killers. The reason the sniper doesn't fit any of these profiles is because he's a terrorist! I wish people would stop being so PC and just get rid of all the filthy Muslims that the US is housing!

There was a report at the Home Depot shooting that bloodhounds tracked a scent for four miles to the beltway.

Who knows what happens in cells? My point was there's been so much speculation by others that it looked like the person or persons had a weekend job. This narrows down the possibility that he worked at night on the weekend. That was one of the theories the MEDIA was suggesting - I didn't really buy it.

This is becoming very confusing. Hope the press isn't running with rumors.
To: John H K
Do you propose that people simply open up on every vehicle in the vicinity when one of these shootings takes place? No.
To: GirlShortstop
Have you seen any pink text ?
To: SamAdams76
Where the hell is Tom Ridge and his "Homeland Security" team? They can't tell us that this is terrorism, or even hint of it. It's "for our own good".
Isn't this kind of thing what the Homeland Security Department was created for?
No.

There was a report at the Home Depot shooting that bloodhounds tracked a scent for four miles to the beltway. .. Thats EXACTLY why I asked my question!
To: John H K
This shooter has to be using a supressor - cause a .223 makes a significant (not impresive, but significant) report. That is, every head would turn toward the shooter immediately. Haven't heard of anyone hearing the shot.
To: prisoner6
THis is different. THis guy HAS to get caught.
Richmonders are tough stuff... I swear if he lurks around here a native will run him off the road...
