I've stated why I disagree with this. There are different types of coward, and this type is of the worst putrid variety there is.


Yeah, it takes a real brave fucker to crawl around in the shadows with a rifle, looking for a defenseless unsuspecting target to shoot at. Fucking think about it.

Cops and Military?

:winkwink:

You know what gets me is how W tries to impress upon the nation how we are going to right the wrongs done to us.

How the USA, in their white outfits and halos will go rid the world of EVIL DOERS.

I wonder how many innocent Afghani civilians died in the US bomb strikes. I bet a lot more than the 5,000 we lost in 9/11. BUT WE ARE THE GOOD SIDE, SO THAT DOESN'T MATTER.

It's all bullshit.

That coward has big balls. I could maybe pull off the firs couple shootings when nobody was expecting it, but after that, i would totally crack under the pressure. Every friggin law enforcement agency is looking for him, military surveillance planes, an entire country has their eyes peeled and he's still going.

I would have killed myself by now.

Exactly. Violence is a part of human nature. I do agree that tv and outside influences can fuel that fire though. Remember Cain and Abel didn't have a TV or a PS2. And it's funny how we like to pin labels on people when they're the opposition. Is America cowardly for killing off the Native Americans with smallpox blankets? They didn't think so, they just had an agenda. Same thing with every other act of violence that has happened since the beginning of time. Everyone has a reason (whether it makes sense or not).

Hehe. :)

by that standard every military operation in histroy that doesn't tell the enemy what they are going to strike is cowardly.

....yep, and a pretty good shot too.

"Small Pox Champion - The US of A - Give Natives some blankets. Warm like the grave."

I agree the Sniper is a coward in a sense ( he/she is taking the lives of Innocent civilians ) thats cowardly in my view. The Point made of perhaps he's doing this to take attention away so something else can be set up is a good point too. Violence in kids... well I have 4 kids 16 - 8 and yeah tv has alot to do with
what influences them but so does their peers. My 9 year old daughter was at a church function with 30 kids lat week and was Punched on the church bus on the way home. *figure that shit out* So violence is both learned and taught by Us, TV and their Peers. In the end I hope they catch this fuckhead sniper soon so No More Innocent People have to die needlessly.
Peace:) :)

He is a killer and so far he shot 11-12 yanks and is still a free man. If you think he is coward then kill 9 people in a "brave way" without getting caught.
Get it through your head, this guy is killing people while avoiding the police.
Smart - Not a coward.

It's scary when I agree with Canadians.

Who knows? The law don't even know that! Sure sounds "misguided" but hell knows what else - time will tell!

No. I am saying flat-out that I don't care about anyone's gray areas, blue areas or yellow areas. I am saying that some things in life, some traits we possess and decisions we make boil down to nothing more than choice. So, because my favorite color is blue, my parents ignored me, my siblings bullied me, that I'm now a slave to what I've become as a result? See, I think that's bullshit, and I think it's a major copout. What I'm saying is, if someone is a mouthy asshole with a bad attitude, it may not be their choice as to their upbringing and all the conflict that may have happened in their past, but it certainly IS their choice if they decide to continue being a mouthy asshole or not. People can change.

It's like the person whose parents smoked saying that they can't quit smoking. More bullshit. Quitting smoking may be a tough decision to stick to, but who ever said that decisions must always be easy?

Another example is people who abuse their spouse. If people are such a slave to their heritage and upbringing, then why don't we just shoot these people instead of trying to rehabilitate and teach them to change their ways? No, sorry, if you don't like something about your personality, then change it. If you're too negative and cynical, work on being more positive. If you're a chronic smartass that thinks he's always right, choose to work on your people skills. If you have a pissy temper and tend to let your rage get out of control, there are things you can choose such as anger management groups to work on that. It's about choice. Like, a lot of people here will have an urge to argue with me, probably just for the fuck of it. Again, it's about choice, to piss or not to piss.


As for the sniper.... I don't deny he/she/they have a lot of balls for doing this. I don't deny that, for eluding the cops thus far, they must be quite smart. I never denied any of that, but none of that matters, nor is it the point here. I've stated repeatedly why I think this sniping asshole is a coward, I've stated the specific reasons more than once here. You people seem to think that all cowards are dumb or something, however I'm sure there have been university professors and Rhodes scholars that have been abject pants-wetting cowards at some point in their lives. Some want to confuse this issue with that of military action? Whatever, this just shows you are confused. If someone here can't see the difference between this sniper shooting kids and tourists and bus drivers and regular people, and an army attacking the enemy to defend it's borders, then there is something definitely wrong with your thinking.
