*new* sniper shooting right down the street

Do you still go outside?

pr0 -

Take care hon! Keep me posted

why the fuck not? in fact if hooters is open tonight imma go get wasted there & eat some wings

snipers don't phase me!

Yeah man, be careful. Now is a good time to do the traditional webmaster hermit thing and not go out of the house for a while.

Yikes.

You da man. I wish you luck

this guy is on his way to the history books

i havent pumped gas in 4 days lol...whenever I drive I try to make sure i catch all the lights on green...
This guy has another 2 weeks of good shooting in before they even find out who he is

You got more balls than me

Whats gonna suck is the fact that he's gonna commit suicide instead of getting arrested.

.... I hate when that happens

I dont think "god" would commit sucide. But only time will tell. Public executions would be appropriate for these scenarios.

-pr0
I think all the Hooters are staying home tonight. But goodluck having some.

And then the copycats will emerge accross the country. We might be in for a few years of this non-sense.


So how many of you think this is a terrorist cell all using the same weapons?

Or do you think its a 18-35 white male with small penis syndrome that just lost his job at a gas station?

I still say we need to get the old fashioned "good ol' boys" out of the woodworks and let them do their thing. Find the fuckwit, cut off his nuts, and shove them down his throat.

My patience with criminals grows thinner by the day. A couple blocks from my place there was a huge ass police shoot out the other night. Some crazy fuck was in a car chase with the police and decided it was a good idea to pull a shotgun on them.

Is there a MONSTEROUS mall in Fredericksburg next to 95? I think it was there we used to stop in on the way down I95 to good old FLA.

Yea theres a big ass mall & a new complex of stores you can see right off 95, so you probably did stop there. Its the stopping point between D.C. & Richmond.

Shop from internet, and you wont have to go outside


take care

I can't order hookers & weed from the net, well maybe the hookers, but not the weed

I'd say the latter of your guesses is correct. It's kind of amusing listening to these profilers talk about who they think would be doing these shootings. They all seem to think it's someone with military or police training because of killers "sniper" style.

Anyone who grew up on a farm is capable of doing this. I used to shoot prarie dogs with a bolt-action Winchester .223 at a couple hundred yards when I was a kid. Now I have a Savage .308 with a Leupold scope that I can easily hit a can with at over 300 yards (probably more, never tried). I have absolutely zero "training" of any kind.

I think it's just some asshole with a God complex who is pissed at the world. I hope he realizes that it probably won't be the police that get him but rather an angry mob that will probably beat him to death (if he's lucky).

I went to college at MWC and I went to that Exxon all the time right before I hopped onto 95 to come home on the weekends. Scary shit.

The problem is that unless he gets stupid he's only going to get caught accidentally.. Since there's no links between the victims, you have to hope that someone stumbles upon him setting up or coming back from his blind with rifle in hand, and then gets away to tell someone about it.

Is there really any other way to catch a random sniper? I can't think of one. So I'd say you're right, this guys got at LEAST another 2 weeks.

Cheers,
Backov

Yip I agree...

prO, I hope they do also, my daughter lives in stafford got me worried sick(

It is pretty obvious, i don't know how the police hasn't figure that out

The attacks are made at must-be stops for people: MacDonalds, Gas station, Schools, restaturants, the message is: don't send your kids to the school, don't put gas in your car, don't eat hamburgers, don't eat at all.

The terrorist idea is to disrupt normal life and also the attack spots are american icons like McDonalds and i think the gas station is Shell (not sure)

Also, when he says: "Dear policemen, i am God", there is a big message here:

-God is name a search and rescue platoon gives to its sniper, normally a platoon is composed by some rifleman, 1-2 support, 1 demolitions and 1 sniper, the sniper is always left behind about half a mile to protect the platoon, if they get pinned down by enemy forces, they call the protection of 'God', that is named 'playing God'

-This man is an sniper and damn good one, this is a fully trained soldier.

-Since when and all-american soldier refers to the police as 'Dear Policemen'?, i can think that he can say 'Dear cops' or something like that but i don't imagine an US soldier saying that, thus, i do imagine a foreigner saying that.

My 2 cents in this.

hahaha....if I was in the area I'd only go out if I had to..

I dont know if you know what you are talking about.

If you do, that does make a whole lotta sense except for that last point. I believe its a American white boy 'a-la' OKC

I know a bit how you feel pr0. My mom goes to church in Bowie about 2 minutes from Benjamin Tasker. I'm not panicking (?sp) but I do worry a little about where the next hit will be and how close it will be to my family. The world is a big place and the probability is low but its gotta be SOMEONES relative. I agree with you though pr0, gotta keep living your life. You can't hide away just because there is a psycho on the loose. You could just as easily be involved in a car crash.

pr0 you got balls my friend!!

I was thinking tonight after I saw the news, What the fuck would I do if this asshole was right here in Scotland....to be truthful, I would shit myself...

I know in America shit like shootings happen regularly, but someone with a sniper rifle picking off people from a distance is some scary shit, no matter how much you look around you will never see this guy as he must be hiding or he would be caught by now!!

Hope your ok and hope this fucked up psycho gets caught pretty soon....

Take care!!!

I think it's the Crips,who agree's?

when its your time to go its your time to go

I DO know what i'm talking about.

When i was in the GI forces of my country i took the sniper course

in fact, i'm the proud owner of an HK PSG-1, and practice a lot.

and you wanted me to come down and grub on some maryland crabs today pr0! glad i didn't come

I dont get how he shot someone at a gas station while a state trooper was right across the street and they Still haven't caught him?

Man Slain at Virginia Gas Station
Fri Oct 11, 7:21 PM ET
By DEBORAH HASTINGS, AP National Writer

FREDERICKSBURG, Va. (AP) - A man filling up his car at a Virginia gas station was shot to death Friday in what may have been the most brazen attack yet by the Washington-area sniper, committed as a state trooper investigated an accident just across the street.

The trooper heard the shot and saw the victim fall. The gunman vanished into the gray drizzle.

"Obviously we're dealing with an individual who is extremely violent and doesn't care," Spotsylvania County Sheriff's Maj. Howard Smith said.

Authorities did not immediately confirm the shooting was the eighth slaying committed by the sniper over the past 10 days. But like the other attacks, witnesses described a single shot, fired apparently at random at someone going about his everyday activities. And three earlier attacks occurred at gas stations.

"The shooting certainly looks similar," said Montgomery County (Md.) Police Chief Charles Moose, who sent investigators to the scene.

Added Smith: "Any time we get a shooting right now we're going to treat it as if it is connected to this case until it's proven differently."

Analysis of ballistic evidence from the scene was not expected until Saturday, though a spokeswoman for Gov. Mark R. Warner said more bullet fragments were recovered here than from the other attacks.

Citing witness reports of a white van carrying two people, authorities immediately blocked traffic on nearby highways and checked vehicles. The roadblocks turned stretches of Interstate 95 into a virtual parking lot, backing up traffic for miles on the eve of the Columbus Day holiday weekend.

The roadblocks were lifted, but Smith said officers continued to pull over white vans into the night. A similar lead cropped up last week after the first rash of slayings.

Col. W. Gerald Massengill, superintendent of Virginia State Police, cautioned the public not to focus only on white vans.

"We don't want preconceived notions out there, but certainly you have to play the hand that you're dealt and the information that has come to us is white vans," Massengill said.

Bruce Bingham, who works at a gas station across from the Exxon station where the shooting happened, said he heard a single shot and saw an unmarked white van driving away from an intersection. Bingham said the light turned green right after the shot and he speculated that someone in the van might have timed the shooting to coincide with the light.

The victim was a 53-year-old Philadelphia man. His name was not released as authorities tried to locate his kin.

Since Oct. 2, the sniper has killed seven people and wounded two in Maryland, Virginia and Washington. The killer has fired from a distance with a high-powered rifle at people going about activities as mundane as mowing the lawn, shopping or strolling down the street.

White House spokesman Ari Fleischer (news - web sites) said the near-daily shootings have become part of President Bush (news - web sites)'s regular FBI (news - web sites) briefing.

Asked if the attacks could be connected to a terrorist group, Fleischer said: "We don't know it is or is not. Whatever the word you want to use to describe it, this is clearly terrorizing the people who are involved, and their families."

Moose said a special FBI unit had not yet finished a graphic aid for the public to help in the search. He did not say what it would show.

Across metropolitan Washington ? an area of some 5 million people ? Friday night football games at area high schools were canceled along with other outdoor activities.

Many were fearful and jittery. Tipsters overwhelmed the 911 center in Montgomery County. Police were called to an elementary school in Bowie, Md., after receiving a report of shots fired; it was apparently firecrackers. A parent, Elaine Henry, described the scene out the school as "near chaos. Parents were everywhere trying to get their children."

At a restaurant near the site of Friday's shooting, Rebecca Didion parked her car illegally against the curb to avoid walking across a parking lot and making herself a better target.

She said she kept her four children out of school and the words they are telling her have become increasingly desperate: "My 8-year-old said to me: 'If it's our time to go, it's our time to go, so why can't we just go on with our lives?'"

Massengill said the ability to track down leads has improved substantially in the past week as various law enforcement agencies closed ranks. But he sounded frustrated, telling reporters: "I'm not going to sit here and display a lot of confidence."

At a gas station in Gaithersburg, Md., co-owner Paul Thomas said he is aware that his station fits some of the characteristics of the other shootings: near big roads and highway ramps.

"We know we fit the profile," he said. "We've got people here 24 hours a day, so I've got the problem 24 hours a day."

Ed Penny pulled his lemon-yellow sports car off the clogged interstate into a northern Virginia Texaco Mini-Mart to fuel up just hours after Friday's attack, saying he refused to let the shootings change his daily routine.

"I can't let it harp on my feelings. I can't let it make me scared of stopping for gas," Penny said. "He's just one person, and he's a psycho."
