JUST BREAKING!!! Police confirm another shooting. But are not sure if it is related.

In other words, you are thinking LE, right? Wonder if someone from a local police force was reprimanded or let go recently?

There are so many scenarios, one just doesn't fit. Sigh.

Springfield,VA (Hamas Cell) southwestern corner of I495 loop at I95. Closest to the center of all shootings.

Laurel, MD (Al Qaeda Cell) on I95 toward Baltimore, 8 miles from northeast corner of I495 loop. Closest to Bowie child shooting.

Potomac, MD (Hezbollah Cell) 4 miles west of northwest corner of I495 loop. Closest to western loop shootings

Herndon, VA (Al Qaeda & Islamic Jihad Cells) 10 miles west of I495 loop. A little farther than Potomac.

Link!?!?

The Thompson Contender is not folded. It is a small pistol. We are talking about a small tripod attached near the end of the muzzle to hold and steady the TC while the sniper lays on the ground and aims at his next victim. It could be folded or removed in a second after the shooting.

Good Scope mounting with good Scope mounts should not get out of balance unless you have an accident.

They make laser sighting attachments to check on your scope and they could have one of these to check to see if the scope is still on target before the next shooting. They cost less than $100 and are easy to use.

Talk about dumb enough. I was just surfing and caught the hostess at CNN Talk Back Live. She was asking a sniper pundit if this was an ambush instead of a sniper?

HOW DUMB IS THAT? The poor guy is gone and since he was a busdriver and not at war, how could the CNN news Oprah wannabe even go there? LAME BRAIN ON CNN.

I think this last shooting was to tell Moose and the task force that they screwed up on the message and now you will pay for it. They all looked like death warmed over at that press conference.

[Kerberos]

Then why don't we raid a couple of Mosques after a shooting? If owning a white van is probable cause for being searched, why isn't operating a Mosque probable cause for being searched?

Actually I'm thinking someone who might be able to escape because he's WEARING a LE uniform, not necessarily because he is a LEO, although it's possible, who knows?

Very interesting. Thanks.

They look like death warmed over because they haven't slept in three weeks, My sister has worked 18 hrs a day since Oct. 3rd. Chief Moose has had it no easier, in fact I believe the man is making himself sick over this.

[John Jamieson]

He said he hadn't even heard about any French sharpshooter!!!

Do you live in a city with a lot of bike riders?

If you did, you would not be making these statement/questions. That area has a ton of bike riders, and they don't attract attention.

An in shape bike rider can easily do the speed limit in cities, 25 to 35 mph. In 10 to 15 minutes they can be 2 to 3 miles from the shooting. More important in 2-3 minutes post shootings they can be a great distance. It appears that most of the shootings have come from wooded areas. They shoot and bike out the opposite way, get on a small side street and in a few minutes they are gone.

Trying getting in and out of a car, van or truck with a scoped rifle in the DC area now, and you might have twenty people phoning in to report you.

The apartment building canvassing is continuing ... understand they are going door to door and interviewing anyone who was there this morning/anyone who might have seen something suspicious in recent past...

[John Jamieson]

We should raid them all.

The only reason we haven't, I suspect is negotiation for release of "God's Sword" is still underway.

"Declare martial law and have the National Guard enforce a curfew"

Will there be tanks in the streets? I do so want to see tanks in the streets!

I wonder how many serial killers they had during Stalin's reign. He knew how to keep things under control!

And also get caught in whithering small arms fire...

[John Jamieson]

Well, maybe that explains their inability to see the obvious.
