1. is it the escapee?
Ho boy.

The conservation movement is a breeding ground of communists
and other subversives. We intend to clean them out,
even if it means rounding up every birdwatcher in the country.
--John Mitchell, US Attorney General 1969-72

11. You know,
it's possible to take one's cynicism, distrust and paranoia just a wee bit too far.

Unless you're being sarcastic, I'd like to suggest that the NEWS on this is real enough, and not planted or manufactured or staged, but that the cable news will, of course, milk it as long as they can. For example, as Bill Maher pointed out last night, the entire day's coverage on cable news yesterday was this Atlanta judge shooting and the day before was Michael Jackson's pajamas. They literally covered nothing else.

17. After he escaped police custody, didn't he walk over to the
other courthouse to shoot the judge and other people?

9. Based on their track record so far, he could have been in the Police...
...Department and they wouldn't have caught him.

6. CNN doesn't
know why they're surrounding the apartment. FoxNews is reporting that it is Nichols. Also has anyone heard anymore about the off duty US Customs Agent that was killed last night or this morning in this area? CNN is reporting that his gun and badge were stolen.

15. Anyone have a link
to a local station with a video feed? None of the major networks have a camera there yet. But it is in Northern Atlanta I can't imagine it would take them long to get there.

23. Get a Link or the Moderators are "supposed" put this in GD...well...
that was when there was supposed to be a Link to a news source within the last 12 hours. I never agreed with the rule for "breaking TV or radio" BN, but, it is now still rather inconsistantly enforced.
