An unnamed White House official released this statement on the shooting at the Navy Yard in Washington, D.C.:

"The President has been briefed several times about the unfolding situation at the Washington Navy Yard by Assistant to the President for Homeland Security and Counterterrorism Lisa Monaco and Deputy Chief of Staff Alyssa Mastromanaco. The President directed his team to stay in touch with our federal partners, including the Navy and FBI, as well as the local officials. We urge citizens to listen to the authorities and follow directions from the first responders on site."

Listen to the authorities. Sounds a bit dictatorial. Guess they’re preparing us for the coup.

I was thinking the same thing.

The District of Columbia is not a State. The federal government can use whatever force it has to protect the seat of national government.

Or a dark complexion black man in fatigues (whatever that means. Duck Dynasty fan?). Can’t wait for the real details to surface. More than likely they’ll be sanitized to fit the anti-gunners agenda. Damn I-95 guns probably. The anti’s are probably behind closed doors high fivin’ each other as we speak with the new “ammo” they’ve just been handed.

After 2 million bikers in DC it needs to be 10 million patriots in DC to show the Elitists they will be voted out. Gutless RINOs should be priority with Boner being number one with McConnell second.

Good thing this happened during the day. I’d hate for him to loose any sleep over this.

Too late. They had to get Barry out of bed before 10:00AM to get on top of this. He'll be a wreck all day.

“scouring the internet to find another obscure youtube video”

I think they have already found potential videos, and await upcoming crises to apply them.
