Either that or he will cease all communication until after his next 20 shots.

This leads me to believe he's going to go out of the area completely. He (or they) can't possibly hope to get off another 20 shots without getting caught in the VA/DC/MD area. What if there are other shooters in other states ready to act?

It is possible that by staying in the VA/DC/MD area where law enforcement presence is at it peak, the killer is furthering the theory that he is from that area.

Why couldn't he get another 20 shots off? They haven't even come close to catching him yet. Stay away from obviously heavy guarded targets like schools and gas stations, go for early morning or late night people (garbage men, city street workers etc.) that will lead to a delayed reaction time.

I am sure he could manage it.

The shooter isn't planning 20 shots at a clip. His note said 20 body bags. We at FR were speculating whether he would go on another spree where he planned several (3-5) at one time, but aren't envisioning 20 at a time.

Virginia is a large state. The shooter has been jumping around. North, then South, then north again. Are there 20 cities within a days drive of Rockville?
