Some of us would have liked to know the color, black, white or yellow and also the religion of the two killers.

Thankfully we were not told that indirect exposure to killing in Afghanistan was a causative factor.

Lawyers may yet raise the point anyone might feel like killing someone, if they had to whisk the vice president in the back of a vehicle. Have any you seen a WMF steel ball whisk?

Note how both killers apparently conspired to kill and yet the possible conspiracy is not even mentioned.

Read the news report and draw your own conclusion.

Two U.S. Secret Service armored vehicles used to protect Vice President Biden struck and killed a pedestrian in Temple Hills early Wednesday morning, authorities said.

The vehicles were traveling together from Andrews Air Force Base at about 2:30 a.m. when the pedestrian was hit at the intersection of Suitland Parkway and Naylor Road in Temple Hills, U.S. Park Police said.

The vehicles, part of a fleet used to protect the vice president, were used to whisk Biden during his trip to Fort Lewis, Wash., and were heading back to a garage at the time of the incident. The armored cars were transported to and from Fort Lewis on military planes. The vice president was there to speak at a memorial service Tuesday for seven soldiers who were killed Oct. 27 in Afghanistan when their vehicle exploded after being struck by an improvised explosive device.
