Be interesting to see if they found any of the bits of plastic that apparently fall off the bullet after it leaves the gun. That would be the kind of thing the shooter would probably be unable to retrieve.

This is just to note that the information in the following link I culled from this thread still exists on the Fox site, un-refuted in print to my knowledge. This information, which roused me earlier, IMO provides a strong indication that Islamic terrorism is behind these shootings, and surely under normal circumstances should have been the talk of the airwaves. The media failure to question this information can only be due to cooperation with authorities who reportedly released the guy, and who reportedly asked the media not to release certain details we can still read about here. Perhaps I should shut up about it too! Nuff said. Even if this ex-marine is unconnected, I'm still leaning toward Al Qaeda now, as I feel people around the shooter would be figuring him out, if he weren't part of a supportive organization.

I wonder if the combination of: a white truck w/shell casing (regardless of the size) being found at the airport; the most recent shooting taking place 85 miles south of D.C.; and the most recent shooting taking place on a weekend...are enough to entertain the theory that the shootings up until Friday were one individual or team, and that now a/some fresh shooter(s) have taken over?

Also, with respect to this most recent shooting having been a wounding rather than a killing: suggesting, perhaps, a new shooter still getting comfortable, shaking out the cobwebs, etc.?
