It seems to me that the media is over-using the term, "Sniper." Most especially, when they reported on those two wack jobs that shot all those poor people in the DC area a few years back, they kept referring to them as "snipers."
Why don't we try to get the media to acknowledge that there is a difference between an honorable, well-trained, disciplined, professional "sniper" who puts himself at risk to serve his country, and a dishonorabe "bushwacker" low life who takes pot shots at innocent people at rock-throwing ranges for no motive other than self-interest.
From what I've heard, those "DC snipers" never took any long range shots, and they certainly had no honor or morals. The term "bushwacker" is an apt term for such animals.
Can you guys think of some other derogatory term that might fit?
