There's also this. Cops and military say their people are much better
killers.

Expert marksmen say shooter is a coward -- not a sniper

The D.C.-area killer who has shot 10 people in as many days may be many
things, but professional sharpshooters and tactical weapons experts say it's
a misnomer to call him a "sniper."

"Any deer hunter could be making the kinds of shots this guy has made," said
retired U.S. Army Maj. John Plaster, a former Special Forces officer who has
given training in sniper techniques and specialized weapons tactics to men
and women in more than 100 police departments and law enforcement agencies.

The D.C.-area killer, to put it bluntly, is giving snipers a bad name, the
sniper Web sites, appalled at the mayhem around Washington, are saying.
