It‘s kinda weird: just the other day, I was saying how no one really speaks of snipers any more. As a phenomenon, snipers fall into the same general category as flashers, streakers, and those who create macrame.
They want a profile? Try looking for (a) a 40 – 50 year old male with a history of stalking Jaquelyn Smith lookalikes, or (b) someone 20 – 30 with retro tastes that could best be described as terminally hip (and I do mean terminally).
