Looks like Dawn got her wish, as Defense Secretary Rumsfeld gave the green light for use of military surveillance equipment in the sniper investigations. I agree with Dawn: our tax dollars are paying for a lot of equipment that could help.
I'd also like to say that I've heard numerous reports (the latest on MSNBC) stating that this guy is not necessarily a trained sniper. The guns that he could be using are all extremely accurate weapons and could be the criminal in this case isn't shooting from that far away.
Based on the fact that this guy is still loose, I don't think its going to be the police who crack the case. I think either the bastard will make a mistake, or someone will point the cops to him. Until this happens, I think we'll see more killings. I'm just not convinced that the authorities involved have shown very much skill. Maybe things haven't changed as much as they'd like us to believe post 9-11.
About time they take this whole situation seriously.
yeah, you don't have to be trained very much to shoot from 100yds using a rifle. I've shot a rifle maybe 10 to 20 times in my life and I can hit a coffee saucer from 150yds.
