'I've just never seen a serial killer whose motivation seems to be to create terror in the community rather than to see his individual victims suffer,' said James Alan Fox, a professor of criminal justice at Northeastern University in Boston who has written books on serial killers." The reason Prof Fox has never seen a serial killer do that is because that's not what serial killers do; it's what terrorists do.

No sher, s**tlock... (ref. to "Prof." Fox here...*) Sure took him both braincells to figure that one out.

I keep coming back to a small detail in the snipers' behavior: One shot, even when they miss.

A real psychopath gets his kicks from watching people die, from reading about their deaths... but whoever is doing *these* shootings has enough fire discipline to only shoot once, even when he misses

Methinks that someone with a deep-rooted hatred of humans at large would not be able to resist firing again, if they failed to connect. Remember, they've spent hours setting up the scenario and waiting for the right target and the right circumsatances. Nevertheless, when he/she/it misses, there is *still* no second shot.

Whoever this is, is a professional...
