DC sniper

you know I was the home depot barely 2 hours before Linda Franklin was shot and killed. I can't help but think that I crossed through this guys cross hairs. I hope he rots in hell.

Oct 14th is a day that I think about how glad I am to be around to play with my wife and kids.

Somtimes we forget how lucky we really are.

I have been fortunate to miss a bank robbery by 30 minutes and a bad, multi-car accident in which a herd of deer tried to cross 301 at morning rush hour by 2-3 seconds. I literallly got to witness the 5-6 deer get taken out by the cars just in front of me.

What? Mastermind? I guess compared to the guy in charge of catching them...

Yeah really. What was he, some kind of chess champion? It doesn't exactly take a genius to commit a crime like this.

He won't be missed.

"white van..." ring any bells? Some days the power of the police makes me wonder... In all honesty I pity every guy that was assigned to trying to figure out who this nut job really was.

Those were frightening times and I'm glad an alert truck driver noticed their vehicle. I think it's possible the 2 killers are Muslim extremists who were doing "jihad". I can't help but think about what would happen if a dozen terrorists had a dozen guns similar to the attacks in Mumbai, India.
It can and has happened before no doubt about it. Terrorists and other homicidal maniacs have attacked schools, transportation, shopping areas and innocent people anywhere else in public places and I just wish Americans could be better prepared for such an attack. I know there's not much you can do about a sniper but most attacks are definitely up close.

That piece of shit is getting off lucky with lethal injection and I hope the legal system doesn't keep him around any longer with appeals and mental illness bullshit.
