It is my understanding in the area in DC, there are many Middle Easterns walking around on streets and shopping malls in their native dress, such is in 'abaya' and 'chadol' and almost 'burqa' for some. When one of these people are shot, then we can dismiss Arab terrorism perhaps.

You are correct, the shooter could have easily targeted someone in Montgomery County or the Falls Church shootings dressed in Muslim garb. Whenever I'm in the area, I always see Muslim peoples. With that being said I'm still not convinced its the work of Arab terrorists, but each new shooting is leading me towards that conclusion.

Thanks. I have essentially come to this conclusion after the first string of shootings on the first day in MD.

I go back and forth - domestic nut case vs. Islamic nut case. I was thinking all weekend, if it is an Islamic nut case, then when are they going to target a church or synagogue. Somehow, I keep thinking that must be on their target list.
