Absolutely. I advise Trump to get his people out of the White House to a safe haven. Certainly not Camp David since it looks like the coup attempt is ramping up. Martial law in the District and NVA would be a good idea UFN. Blanket FISA warrants to surveil anyone who might be involved. I wouldn’t trust Mt. Weather either.

He should have been deported decades ago, along with his son who is a natural born citizen.

FoxNews has reported the following:

The gunman was shot by U.S. Capitol Police, apprehended and taken to the hospital, officials said. Sen. Mike Lee told Fox News, however, the gunman was killed. The incident occurred at Simpson Field in Alexandria, about 10 miles from Washington D.C.

Ripping the paper off the top of the load always ruined the taste of lunch.

Capitol Police on protective detail for the baseball practice. Let that sink in. And these practices had been going on for weeks, presumably at the same location. Pretty good bet shooter had surveilled target extensively, knew it was a GOP practice, and LEO would be on the scene.

I lived through the 60s and haven’t ever seen the left this vile and violent. This is just the beginning.

I see "shooter" and "shooting" everywhere...

How about assassin and the attempted assassination of several members of congress.

While I agree that the blood is on the hands of liberals, it’s long past time elected Republicans speak out against the antics of the left. They could support the President when he is being attacked once in a while, too. Their silence allows the left to continue moving the bar towards more violence.

Martial Law anywhere in the country is a very, very bad idea.

Praying for all victims and their families.

Should it be determined that this was a partisan attack, I pray the career republican politicrats realize who is their champion and stop fighting our president and OUR agenda.

The seriousness of this act should wake some people up.

As you said, FoxNews is reporting the gunman dead. But Capitol police claim he was wounded and sent to a hospital.

http://www.foxnews.com/us/2017/06/14/virginia-gop-baseball-practice-shooting-multiple-people-shot.html

The gunman was shot by U.S. Capitol Police, apprehended and taken to the hospital, officials said. Sen. Mike Lee told Fox News, however, the gunman was killed. The incident occurred at Simpson Field in Alexandria, about 10 miles from Washington D.C.

Senator Mike Lee (R-Texas) is claiming gunman is dead. Just have to wait to be sure. I imagine the PERP was shot multiple times...

I will bet that it was not an “automatic” rifle.
