They're now calling Eric Frien "The Diaper Sniper"

[Siwsan]

My question is, why does a 'survivalist' find the need to wear diapers? Seems it would take much more time to stop and change one's own diaper than it would to just drop trou and let loose.

Eric Frein Manhunt: 'Diaper Sniper' Reportedly Phoned Parents

The prime suspect in a deadly shooting that left one Pennsylvania state trooper dead and another seriously wounded, reportedly placed a call to his parents' house after authorities launched a massive manhunt for his capture.
.....
During a Wednesday afternoon press conference, Pennsylvania State Police Lt. Col. George Bivens said investigators remain convinced Frein is still in the heavily wooded area near his home.
.....
Bivens said Frein, a 31-year-old marksman and self-taught survivalist, has been spotted in the woods several times. The suspect, Bivens added, has left a trail of empty cigarette packs and dirty diapers throughout the woods. The latter of the two has eared Frein the moniker "Diaper Sniper' and the creation of hashtag #DiaperSniper on Twitter.

1. Ted Nugent didn't need no diapers

And he didn't even have to stop.

Shit his pants, that's what a real survivalist would do.

2. Is he related to David Vitter?

3. Because whenever the leaves rustle or a twig snaps, he wets his diaper.

Hope they catch the dipshit soon.

4. My two guesses

1. The diaper allows him to go longer without leaving a direct trail (and time table) of his travels. As posted elsewhere he sounds like he is leaving bread crumbs. I hope it isn't a trap.

2. The cops are challenging his manhood. Sound like it to me. They are trying to provoke him into acting and exposing himself to tracking
