A pickup truck allows you to hide and shoot in the prone position. The prone position is also the most stable position to shoot in this situation.
Panel or box trucks draw to much attention from the cops. At this point the cops are searching ALL of these vehicals!!
If you want to throw off the cops, what better way to go thru a road block than to have a PICKUP TRUCK with painting, or landscaping equipment under a black tarp in the back with a handy place to hide under.
The coyotes that smuggle illegal aliens across the border use this trick. DC and local area police are not on to this one! This ain't San Diego!
If the cops are looking for a van type WORK vehical and IF I'm hinding under a tarp, I'm gonna get waved thru. The cops want the area cleared as soon as possible.
This is my theory
#1 This is trrorism. Simple deduction: Occums Razor, we are at war.
#2 There are at least 2 moslems working together. The other guy is the calm getaway driver and lookout. It is too difficult to concentrate on the target AND look out for your self at the same time. The trigger man concentrates on the "long distance". The driver/watcher concentrates on the "immediate area".
#3 A shooter is laying in the the prone shooting position in the back of a covered pick up truck. Shooting thru a peephole in the tailgate.
#4 They always park the truck with the bed facing the target. Its not camper type cover, that would draw attention from the cops. They are looking for a van.
#5 The lookout gets out of the vehicle and not only watches the surrounding area. But tells the shooter when its clear to pull the trigger via cell phone.
#6 The bed of the truck has a flat canopy. It is well insulated to keep the sound at a mininum. The direction of the suppressed sound is difficult to pinpoint.
#7 After the shoot, the driver calmly goes back to the truck and obeying the all traffic laws drive away while listening to the police chatter on scanners. They may even have a team to hand off the weapons to in another vehical.
#8 They might even be blond haired blue eyed moslems from Bosnia
explanation: This is how I would do it, if I were a bad guy
How this is going to end:
An armed citizen is going the hear the direction of the gunfire and charge at it with a pistol. This guy charging with pistol is either going to kill both perps or die trying.
OR:
I believe that there is a terriorst cell bickering among themselves weather to keep this a "strickly" religous jihad or make some money out of this deal.
The note was left near the scene of the last shooting with out the knowledge of ALL the perps imvolved. There may be 4 or more.
The 1 or 2 indeviduals who want to make some money out of this sniping are going to get the WHOLE terriorist cell busted out of greed and stupidity.
This is going to be a comedy as soon as it pans out. Thats why every one is confused at this piont and media speculation is rampant.
The phone number on the note was for that phone booth the cops staked out and busted the nitwits.
Maybe these 2 guys were the greedy ones or the 2 left in the dark by the greedy ones.If the perps do not get caught soon, terrors cells all over North America are gonna start adopting this method and the body count is gonna go thru the roof. It's going to spread FAST. This proven method will spread. NYC and Miami will be next.
This is not some NUT NRA member. Which is what the media want it to be. The feds think we will panic like sheep if we are told it's terrorist.
The media is pumping the lone "angry white male" gunman to re-energise the anti gun movement. The liberals love this lost cause SO MUCH that they will lose every seat in the Nation for it. Election time is near and the Dems don't have an issue.
D.C. Police and F.B.I. are avoiding giving a description of the perp because "he is an Islamo-fasist terrorist of mid east descent and do not want the heat from liberals for PROFILING.
Man this is getting interesting!!!!!!!!!!!!!

The phone number on the note was for that phone booth the cops staked out and busted the nitwits. You are wrong on this one kennyboy. The perps are still communicating on that phone number with the coppers today.

you're right that this will only be solved if a citizen sees or hears something and either nails the perp(s) instantly or at least gets the crucial vehicle license number....
what is unbelievable is that apparently NO ONE has been a real witness to the shootings....hard to believe that we have become a nation of such self absorbtion.....
I am a natural busy body and if I heard shots after taking cover I would at least LOOK around ,,,
as far as terrorists...well, no matter what, this is terror...
I have two opposing views....one , that this is a "disgrumbled" employee of Mooses' that thinks he did not deserve the chief of police position, or it is ME terrorists.....either way, they have been doing this perfectly ...
