"...I guess the experts will claim now that anti-American sentiment can be traced back to "mommy issues"..." They've got nothing else of their original 'theory' left.
'White male between the ages of 21 and 35'... (insert farting sound here)
They'll need an altered birth certificate and a can of white spray paint to get this mammer-jammer up to spec.
And, since 'Christian' is implied in their stereotype above, a hasty conversion from Satanism (AKA islam) to boot!

They are connected to the $10,000,000 demand. More than that, Fox news reported that the two women store clerks shot in the Alabama robber (one dead, one wounded) never got a look at the robber(s) because they were shot sniper-style while walking across the parking lot to their car after locking up for the night.
Malvo's fingerprint has been tied positively to that robbery and apparently to one of the messages left in the DC-area snipings, and the credit card stolen from one of the clerks in the Alabama robbery was the account the "give us $10 million" folks were wanting the money to be deposited to.

Yep, he/she looks half mil dollars richer.

Lee Malvo left a thumbprint on one of the notes. That is why there were looking at the school to see if they could get a writing sample.

Think one of the folks in the Oregon cells was named after some Black Panther Leader??

Agreed. Whatever happened to the white panel truck? All the sightings - can they all be wrong?

'We have caught the sniper like a duck in a noose''I like my duck extra-crispy!' Exclaimed Chief Moose.
To: DWSUWF
You have me laughing already!
To: Peach
Duck in a noose - seems to refer to an Indian (feather not dot) story about a rabbit boasting about how it was going to catch a duck in a noose and getting shown up by the duck. Doesn't make much sense.
BTW, wasn't there some sort of Indian/Hispanic individual reported initially, or have I gotten my snipers mixed up?

I believe that there will be weeping and nashing of teeth among that crowd this AM. Of course, the creeps at CNN will lead the bunch.

I think it will be split between the parking lot tipster and
the person who originally brought them to the attention of the authorites. Some one called the tipline and said they heard a guy talking about the murders who had more info than
was being talked about in the media.
To: TomGuy
It's amazing how this thing was nailed by former Military vets on FR. They tied the sniper to Military training and also said two were involved, one shooting and one driving the get-a-way car.
Maybe they should get the reward, if this pans out...:~)

He was Islamic conversion. Never thought about the Black Panther angle. The Black Panthers are totally anti-American.
To: Peach
Didn't they give out description of another vehicle last night? Everything is running together in my mind now.
To: Peach
White truck? What white truck? LOL.
I honestly don't know?

From the Washington Post:
"The duck reference apparently is drawn from a folk tale in which a boastful rabbit tries to catch a duck in a noose. The duck appears to be caught but flies off, dragging the rabbit along with him. The rabbit then tumbles into a tree stump, where he is stranded."

A transcript of a press conference with Moose was posted several days ago - something along the lines: "We don't want this group targeted specifically and so are declining to go with a composite". Just which group didn't they want targeted? And does anyone think they would have held the composite if it had been a white guy? It's okay to target white guys in this country but no other group(s)? People are going to die if we continue with that crap. When a composite is available, it should be released ASAP, regardless of which group!
