Beltway Sniper Shootings-FR Commentary-Wed., Oct. 23,2002
Fox News, CNN, Press Conferences | October 23, 2002 | Fox News, CNN, Press Conferences

Let's keep a live commentary thread going again today. The FBI Tip Line #1-888-324-9800.

All seems quiet since yesterday's news the shooter may target children specifically. It was released on various news outlets the shooter's 3-page letter to police was in broken English and threatened extreme violence. Police announced an electronic transfer of $10m as requested by the shooter was not possible but other options for transfer remain open. No one seriously believes police will actually give the shooter $$, but police are trying to keep a dialogue open with the shooter in an effort to capture this monster.

I sure picked a bad week to stop sniffing glue!

And I sure wish I had NOT sworn not to smoke in the house; I can't even smoke a cigarette without 200 posts flying by!

I refuse to give MSNBC any ratings share

HEADS UP-- Unless you are a Nielsen household, they have no idea what channel you are watching. (It's not like the Internet).

Now MSNBC is backing off the Alabama connection.

Anyone else hear different?

Prez is doing southern states tomorrow; he'll be in SC and I'll be there. Is it sacriledge to say I'd rather be here watching breaking news? But I'm committed to drive other people and have tickets, etc. Otherwise I'd cancel (I think). No, no I can't think, anymore.

Er, I'm not THAT stupid. :-) It's just a matter of principle, etc. I know I won't get at their ratings share; however, I at least won't be watching ads from the people who sponsor MSDNC. And so on. I just can't stand the channel. :-)

You're right. Steven Emerson's book American Jihad details how some AQ have trained in OUR military.
