Is this crazy person/terrorist/fool/physco/whatever, trying to make a point?

Is he trying to tell everyone that he can and will assinate the Chief?

Well 100 yards isnt that far and the Chief is farther than that when he boards and disenbarks from the Helo,

This crazy person/idiot has to be stopped.,

Shot and killed one more ( a woman ) in front the Home Depot.

GWB was talking not to long ago about even Assination of Sudamn, right?

This fool will not be able to do anything except screw up and be caught, but the sooner the better.

Didnt take long to catch Tim Mcveigh and look where he is now.

To me personally I think this person is a terrorist, cause he/she is shooting and killing Innocent persons ( all except the weekends) which he/she kicks back and watches TV about the shootins.

enough.................

It's a hard one to understand. But in the present climate it certainly is a terrorist act. If it happened in Australia our government would try to take all the guns off us. They've already got all the semi-automatics [except those in the hands of the underworld, of course]. Holding a nation to ransom through fear is a difficult situation to overpower. It will take great leadership by more than just the President to win this battle. A lot of people need to look at themselves to fight this terror.

Anyone who disagrees with illegal acts to gather intelligence, in this day and age, cannot truely regard themsleves as having the RIGHT STUFF.

I just hope this coward doesn't decide to lay back in the weeds and just disappear, never to attack anyone again. There have been a few serial killers who did that and were never caught.

Wazza,The "Brady Bunch",gun control fanatics here in the U.S.,have already used this dispicable incident to further their agenda.Makes me sick!

Doesn't the DC area already have some of the most restrictive gun laws in the country? Another one won't make one wit of difference.

Drywall, the gun laws don't mean a thing because they're simply not enforced. Adding more laws on top of the ones already in place is just touchy, feel-good politics. If a thug is arrested for multiple crimes, among which is a gun law violation, that violation is usually the first to be bargained away when the creep cops a plea.

It's illegal to own a firearm in Chicago, but the murder rate went up this year. Everyone's concerned. How could that happen? Hmmm.....

I agree with what phuloi said, although I'm a gun control fanatic. Whatever firearm I use is under my complete control at all times. (Or is that a different kind of gun control?????????????????)

You know it, I know it, anyone with half a brain knows that gun control laws have nothing to do with gun control. They have everything to do with control of the populace and power.

Half a brain, huh? Well, right there you eliminated a LOT of people!

If I am not mistaken I put this on this morning for the Blues Clues post of the Maryland Shootings.

Sorry to take your post Blue.

All of you are answering what has to be done.

I "think" here in Tx that we are alloowed to carry a "side arm" even on the hip if you are properly licensed.

Probably wrong, but it seems I read that about four or five years ago.

Humper should know more about that subject.

But, I personally would like to see the public get more involved with the weapons and carrying them for safety with the proper instructions and training.

But then What good would a weapon being on your person when the attacker is a Sniper?

The taking of semi-automatics was a knee jerk reaction the our Port Arthur masacre in Tasmania. Didn't make much difference to the murder rate the professionals, still use their traditional methods but the rank and file just resorted to knives. It's certainly true that guns don't kill - people do.

The only thing I agree with is that using a rifle to kill is a cowardly act because it keeps the assailant remote from the victim. Makes you understand why some police lose the plot and take the law into their own hands.
