We had a sniper down here on our turnpike for a while, but I don't think they ever caught the person.

They did catch a few of the kids that used to toss cinder blocks onto I-95. that was horrible, seeing all the mess and death as a result of those twerps.

I only recall one person being killed by the sniper. I think it was a woman, her husband was driving and he thought she had fallen asleep. It wasn't for a few miles before he realized what had happened. Such a loss.

Where do these idiots come from?

I remember in Calif. when teens would throw things over the railings onto the freeway. When I saw the headline, I thought of LA. It was plain crazy out there with all the drive by shootings in neighborhoods and freeway shootings. Alot of crazy stupid people.

We have rock-dropping morons too. Listening to the scanner as I do, I can let Sweetie know where they're active on a particular day so he can watch out for them.
