Sniper needs a life

I have a message for the serial sniper in Virginia.\nWho do you think you are? What kind of a sad life have you led up to this point? You are one of few people in this world who have some sort of demented fun by peering at the world through the eyes of a gun sight. Shooting random people and taunting the police by deliberately going against typical psycho-killer profiles. \nWere you abused as a child? Were you fired from a job? Did your wife leave?\nDon't think I have sympathy for your situation, because I don't. No matter what you went through in the past, you have no reason to destroy life as you do.\nHow can you, as a member of society, take someone else out of it? Even you have a mother and a father somewhere. How can you look through that sight, at a human face, and erase it from existence? You have a face, a body, a soul. What makes yours more important, more powerful than any other? Your gun? If that is what your answer is, then your power is not your own.\nYou said to the policeman, "I am God." In that statement, you are wrong. Contrary to your own beliefs, you are a weak, pathetic excuse for a carbon-based life form. Vultures have more honor than you do. A vulture will at least look his victim in the face before he begins to do his dirty work. You hide behind glass, gunmetal and the sliding door of a rented minivan. You are an example of cowardice at its finest. If you had any panache at all, any guts, you would face your problem, or your anger, and deal with it, not take out whatever feelings you are dealing with on other people with your high-powered rifle. \nAre you mad? Go punch a pillow, take a boxing class, or meditate with a spiritual leader. Even binge eating would be a better solution than going out and killing innocents just because you are angry or feel left out from the world. There are so many venues to express oneself -- why would you resort to killing? Why don't you go paint your boss' face on a clay disk and go skeet shooting? People like you have got to find better ways of dealing with aggression than this.\nAnd when you get caught and convicted, it will be because of a very human mistake. Gods don't make mistakes, do they? Or are you one of those new 90 percent gods?\nI don't believe in the death penalty; I think it's too easy, especially for you. I would rather see you in a glass box in a museum. So for the rest of your life, you can never escape from the people you tried to destroy.\nYou call yourself a god? You think that you are a deity suitable for worship? I laugh at your shortcomings, and you don't think you have any. In reality, where the rest of us live, you aren't a god. You, my friend, are worthless, because for a god, you sure have a lot of character flaws.
