Shooter hid behind dugout.

Security detail got the shooter.

Reports of over 50 rounds fired.

Shooter had automatic rifle.

Security, according to the liberal media were pros.

Police officers were wounded as well (I don't know if that was Alexandria Police or Capitol)

I would be careful about using the term “automatic” rifle.

99% probably that the shooter used a semi-automatic (1 pull, 1 shot.) “Automatic” weapons are not easily gotten by the average person.

You mean semi-automatic rifle.

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