You and I might agree, but I’m not sure they would.

NBC reported a white male, early 30s.

Since there is no further reporting I assume he has some left wing socialist baggage.

What if he self-identified as a White House staffer? Shouldn’t he have been allowed in?

That may be the only way to remove the Marxist maggot and his 3 witches.

[A diversion from the Trump NRA endorsement speech?]

That thought crossed my mind to, a point that has to be made as so many shooters are left wing dems who hate America and would give their evil lives to destroy our freedoms.

the guy is obviously a nut case. I would surmise in his own twisted mind that he thought he could some how make a difference that might change his misery.
He did succeed in that by getting shot. My issue is that the oath of public, military and LEOs office/positions for a huge part no longer means anything respecting those words to “Protect and Defend”. I would say that's beyond sad for every country loving American.
