I want to repeat this; as I posted on another thread about this horrific act.

To All:
We need to keep saying prayers to our God for help, for courage and for the strength to keep our beloved USA safe and free.

“As we were standing here this morning, a gunman walked up to the fence line and just began to shoot. I was standing at home plate and he was in the third base line,” Bishop said. “He had a rifle that was clearly meant for the job of taking people out, multiple casualties, and he had several rounds and magazines that he kept unloading and reloading.”

The shooting went on for roughly 10 minutes, with some accounts putting the number of shots fired around 100. Four people were injured, including two Capitol Hill police officers and House Majority Whip Steve Scalise, of Louisiana. The suspect was also shot.

“The only reason why any of us walked out of this thing, by the grace of God, one of the folks here had a weapon to fire back and give us a moment to find cover. We were inside the backstop and if we didn’t have that cover by a brave person who stood up and took a shot themselves, we would not have gotten out of there and every one of us would have been hit — every single one of us,” said Bishop. “He was coming around the fence line and he was looking for all of us who had found cover in different spots. But if we didn’t have return fire right there, he would have come up to each one of us and shot us point-blank.”

Fox news just showed a posed photo of Democrats "praying" after they found out about the shooting....it was on another baseball field.

This from the party that booed the mention of "God" in their platform and that refuses to publicly condemn the depiction of the murder of President Trump in the name of "art".

I am not buying it folks. Posers.

Tick, tick, tick. Waiting for Chris Murphy to call for complete gun control.

Maybe if the likes of k griffin, m waters, Shakespeare in the Park, madonna/hollywood, et al were prosecuted, and hinkley was still in jail serving time, there wouldn’t be such a casual attitude for those inciting these avert acts of violence. Tick, tick, tick.

Getting awfully close to the POTUS. Who didn’t see this coming. Prayers for those injured. God Bless America.

Maybe the thing to do here is to notify Geo. Soros to report for waterboarding or someone will be sent to “assist” him.

UPDATE: They now say the Bernie Sanders-inspired mass shooter was fed on HATE from Rachel MadCow! Huh, no surprises here!

The US national HATE Media and Democrats are DIRECTLY to blame for the shooting of the Congressional Republicans! Within the last month two artistic works have drawn criticism for imagined violence against Trump. In May, comedian Kathy Griffin apologized for a photo where she held a mask of a bloody, severed Trump head after a major backlash where CNN cut ties with her. More recently, a production of Shakespeare’s “Julius Caesar” depicted a Trump-like figure who was assassinated. The president’s eldest son, Donald Trump Jr., on Twitter highlighted another user’s tweet that said, “Events like today are EXACTLY why we took issue with NY elites glorifying the assassination of our President,” soon after shots were fired at Republican congressmen during a baseball practice.

FOR SHAME!!
