Officials: Man shoots himself to death near White House
ABC ^ | 3-3-2018 1:45

WASHINGTON -- The Secret Service says a man shot himself outside the White House, and medical personnel are on the scene.

President Donald Trump is not at the White House - he's in Florida, but is set to return later Saturday.

The agency says in a Twitter post that there are no other reported injuries related to the incident.

The Secret Service tweeted about noon Saturday that personnel are responding and a person "allegedly suffered a self-inflicted gun shot wound along the north fence line" of the White House.

White House press secretary says "we are aware of the situation, the president has been briefed."

If you are cryptic enough, you are always right.

No doubt this loon sacrificed himself thinking his useless death formed one more integral link in the chain of events that leads to the disarming of American citizens.

Ho ho ho ho ho ho!

Update: Adult male allegedly shot himself along the north fence line of the @WhiteHouse. No other injuries reported. Our natural death squad is on the scene. Will provide updates as they come in. -- DC Police Department (@DCPoliceDept)

@DCPoliceDept - March 3, 2018

Natural death squad? Oh yeah, this is DC we are talking about.

I feel bad about suicide, attempted or successful. Sad action, to understate the gravity.

Secret Service: Man shoots himself outside White House Email

You should not shoot yourself outside the White House Email.

You should shoot yourself outside the White House Twitter.

I think that Q’s mommy has grounded him since late February and taken away his computer privileges.

I would suggest that there is a 99.999% chance that he/she/it was a democrat, be it a card carrying member of the party or just a dhimmi voter. I know of few conservatives who purposely kill themselves. Of course, the exception might be something like Masada or the Warsaw ghetto. Now, sacrificing oneself to save others? THAT is more like what a conservative might do.

Another unhinged Democrat that couldn't take it? They should take up head banging like other liberals. They're chances of surviving are greatly improved.
