another sniper attack

Im scared of the copy cats.

Yup. The success rate of this killer will probably give other nuts ideas.

The never-caught Zodiac killer had at least one known copy cat.

it's big news down here in NZ too, but it's kinda been overshadowed by the huge terrorist attack in bali recenlty

Pretty gloomy thread... why do you think this stuff is happening?
What is it about freedom that people abroad hate so much? Foreign policy? Religious differences? Bush? All/none of the above?

I don't travel abroad (can't afford it, I'd love to, though) so I really don't know. I'm honestly just asking.

One of my friends works in one of the stores one of the shootings took place in front of.

wow can't even catch a sniper in their own backyard.. but they're gonna stop terrorisim .. I feel safer already
perhaps america should worry about whats going on in their own coutry before they try to fix other's

It's in the news here too, every time (almost) the news are on. It passes the news...uhm...border(?) everywhere, I think.

I can imagine it must be kinda spooky when he's still at large, even though, as mrBogus said, it's pretty unprobable for you guys in washington to actually get shot by that fu©ker..

We had that twisted fudge that blew a damn bomb in a shoppingmall here in Helsinki too, there went all that "nothing like that happens in Finland" - mentality, I think. Maybe for the better, you never know..

Now the sheriff-dudes've catched two persons that maybe had something to do with the sniper, but I've been a bit glued with other things than the TV today, so I'm not too updated on the issue.

Well, I don't know anyone else that live near washington except Charm, so....er...Be careful, Charm.

can i come stay with you until they catch him? we can get drunk and draw pictures of naked men.

Of course. *goes to buy even more beer now*

you have no idea how many millions of Americans agree 110%.

Try getting through to our government with that message, though. It's not easy. People here really don't have much of a voice. Unless you are born into power, you don't have much. I'm glad, though, in this situation. I have no idea how to catch the sniper. Perhaps zyconium and his mounties could do a better job.
