The Maryland sniper: Sharpshooter or average person with a sophisticated rifle? Find out who has access to high-tech weapons. That's the actual quote from one of the promos on the website, and I already sent the producers an email, suggesting that they focus on the deranged shooter and not on demonizing whatever rifle he's using. |

Yeah I saw the previews for that last night. It is for the Wolf Blitzer show today at 5pm EST. i couldn't believe what I was hearing.
"Is this sniper a very skilled shooter, or somebody who has very sophisticated weaponry". (Or something along those lines). Stupid me thinking skill was the only way possible. I didn't know there where such neat-o guns that you could tell the gun where to shoot and it will hit what you want. [rolleyes] |

I didn't have a lot of time, but I could not find the link on the cnn.com web site. If someone could post a link, I would be sure to put in my .02

Actually, the premise of skilled shooter vs. sophisticated rifle makes some sense, but it's too simple a topic for a show.
If it turns out the guy is using iron sights, he's a pretty skilled shooter. If it turns out it's a scoped bolt action, it could be my grandmother. That's a pretty short show. |

What exactly is a high tech weapon anyway? Are there those new computer controlled aiming systems I slept through?
Here is the link to the page: [url]http://www.cnn.com/CNN/Programs/wolf.blitzer.reports/[/url] Join Wolf for complete coverage of the sniper menacing the Washington, D.C. area. How safe are U.S. schools? How easy is it to buy high-tech weapons? We'll have in-depth reports, and a profile of Montgomery County Police Chief Charles Moose. We'll also speak with Montgomery County executive Doug Duncan for the latest on the investigation. Plus, a look at the Iraq debate on Capitol Hill. Tune in at 5 p.m. ET. These mucking forons.
