I also think it's very telling that he attacked someone on a bus. He's already managed to shut down the schools, empty out shopping centers. Is he sending a message that commuters are next? Is he trying to frighten the public so they'll be afraid to venture out to work on buses and trains? Afraid to leave their children?

I wonder... based on conjecture that the sniper has directly threatened children, presumably schoolchildren, if his bus shooting today was to show that buses, including schoolbuses, are unsafe. Many parents are already staying with their children at bus stops, if not driving them directly to school - but if the sniper is trying to show us that he can shoot when people (including children) are ON THE BUSES...

I'm probably overthinking this, but I have this disease where I have to post every single theory I come up with.

FYI..I am surprised the news folks haven't jumped on this..The CEO of that county said the sniper has not made specific threats towards any group.

LOL. I love it, you people help so much. Sometimes, after the grief, anger sets in. I think that is what happened to me today and Chief Moose is such a tempting target. I am not without some sympathy for him, it just seems easier at certain times, rather than others.
