Upset with this freakin Sniper

DeltaSig · #1 10-11-2002, 02:01 PM

I'm pretty sure I'm not the only one, but this serial killer has started to really piss me off. He or she is obviously getting off on the fact that they can take life at will and play god. The thing that really got me the most, was when he/she shot the 13 year old boy at school. That's just freaking pathetic.....the sniper has already killed more people than the son of sam, thats scary

Scary for you!?!?! This psycho is in my hometown....and I go to school only 30 minutes away. The worst thing about it is everyone is soo on edge and looking over their shoulder every second. One of the shootings happened right near my house on Wednesday

They don't even know what this sniper guy looks like

I'm praying that something happens to solve this soon....

I don't know why, but I'm just not too freaked out! I live right here, and I guess, if it's my time, it's my time. The first five shootings last week were all within a 5-10 mile radius of my houes. But, I'm just not freaked for some reason. I guess growing up in NYC made me a bit numb to random violence like this. I've always been very aware of my surroundings, but I will take extra precautions...

As a resident of Maryland, let me tell you one thing....if I see any white vans or trucks ANYWHERE...I turn and go in the opposite direction! Earlier this week, I got stuck on a major highway because police had stops every few miles. Scary to see all the trucks and vans of all sizes pulled to the side of the road being searched and stuff. I pray for the families of the victims in this mindless act of cruelty.

Wow, I just heard about the sniper on the news for the first time. What a sicko! My prayers go out to the victims and their families. I hope everyone in the area stays safe.

Scary stuff.

Stay safe, everyone.

I hope to GOD! (and not the serial killer) that he or she is found and brought to justice. I just cannot believe that this is happening: it's all senseless! Imagine the agony these families are going through. I know that at any minute lightning could strike me, a car could kill me, or I could drop down dead...but this person is taking life. Life that may have lived 10 or 50 more years!

The guy is crazy.
It seems that he wants to be caught because of the fact that he left thay=t tarot card. Hopefully he gets apprehended soon cause he'll keep killing till he gets caught.

I just heard that the latest victim....in Fredricksburg just 20 minutes from my school...was on his way home to see his wife and 6 kids after a business trip. I really hope this guy gets caught soon. How sick must he be to kill 9people??

Everyone in the areas....be careful!

Stay away from Micheal's and get your gas on the weekend!

Oh for the old days of full service stations!

The good news is that these things follow a fairly predictable pattern....this guy WILL get caught and he will be taken out in the tired old "blaze of glory" cliche. The bad news is that this is probably what he wants....to remain this enigma.....this person obviously has some major issues with both the government and law enforcement. What exquisite torture it would be for him to have to be locked up under its control for the rest of his life. Plus we will be denied the satisfaction of knowing WHY.

I am definitely freaked out about it. First off, I feel horribly for these people. Secondly, we have family there. Thirdly, I fear that copycats will spring up all over the place. Fourthly (but probably most significantly) I have to go there in 2 weeks for a burial service at Arlington National. Not thrilled to be using myself and my children as target practice for this sniveling, worthless piece of sh*t.

Maybe it's silly, but since this stuff started, I've found myself to be VERY nervous whenever I am outside. I walk really fast to my car and I always look around whenever I do have to stand around outdoors (i.e. when I'm getting gas). I've gotten even worse ever since the shooting Wednesday night which was 1 mile and a half from my apartment. I mean a few hours beforehand, I had just gotten gas at the station across the street from that one! And a few days before, I had stopped AT that gas station and filled up right next to the pump that the guy was shot at. That shooting just made it more of a reality for me, because I knew that I truly couldn't feel safe anywhere. I can't wait till this is all over with, and if he doesn't get killed in a chase or commit suicide, I hope he gets the death penalty. I've never wished anyone dead before, but this guy has gone WAY too far!

This is just so horrifying.

I just heard about these incidents a couple of days ago. It has been a really busy week, so i didn't keep up with the news and such like I normally do. Where exactly is this sniper?

Everyone in these areas please stay safe!

Peaches-n-Cream · #15 10-12-2002, 03:47 PM

The sniper is in Metro D.C., Maryland, and now Virginia. It is very scary. My mom was just talking to me about the Son of Sam and how scary it was because those crimes occurred very close to our home. The terrifying part is the randomness of the sniper's killings. Stay safe everyone!
