Maine Man Hunt Continues.
“Law enforcement agencies have descended upon southern Maine to search for Robert Card, the suspect in Wednesday’s mass shootings — but his background could make the effort to find him both challenging and dangerous, experts told CNN.
“This is a person who has military training. They have an elevated level of firearms proficiency, but they also have the knowledge of military tactics, most notably evasion and the strategy on how to go undetected,” said CNN Law Enforcement Analyst Jonathan Wackrow. “All of that going on is challenging to law enforcement.”
His experience with guns: Card is a certified firearms instructor, law enforcement officials in Maine told CNN. And while he’s had no deployments, records provided by the Army indicate Card is a petroleum supply specialist in the Army reserve.
The 40-year-old never saw combat, according to Clifford Steeves, a former colleague in Card’s Army Reserve Unit. But Card received extensive training, including with firearms, he said, adding Card was a skilled marksman and among the best shooters in their unit.”
The mass shootings in America continue with little to no progress in stemming them or even getting to their root cause. In the immediate aftermath the body politic coalesces around their politically polarized stances that prevent any meaningful solutions. The political stagnation ensures that gun laws don’t change and innocent people keep dying around the nation. People will keep dying as long as the Supreme Court thinks the founding fathers would want semi-automatic guns in the hands of citizens. They would not.
