A hero guard was shot today as he stopped a gunman from entering the Family Research Council in Washington DC. The shooting is being investigated as an act of domestic terrorism. Family Research Council is a Christian, conservative based organization. Fox News reports that witnesses say the shooter was speaking out against the Family Research Council's Pro-Life, Pro-Family agenda as he tried to enter the building. A security Guard stopped the shooter to ask where he was going and that is when the security guard was shot. Thankfully, the guard fought back, even after being shot, and was able to wrestle the shooter to the ground and took the gun. Witnesses say that after the shooter was subdued, the shooter told the guard, "it was not about you, it was about what this place stands for." The shooter was allegedly even carrying a Chick-Fil-A bag as he tried to enter the building.
According to Media Research Center, Tony Perkins, the President of FRC, was an outspoken defender of Chick-fil-A President Dan Cathys public stand against same-sex marriage, which made the fast-food chain a flashpoint in the nations culture wars. The Cathy family foundation has funded the Family Research Council.
Hes taking a bold stand, Perkins said after Cathys comments were reported. Chick-fil-A is a Bible-based, Christian-based business who treats their employees well. They have been attacked in the past about their stand. But they refuse to budge on this matter, and I commend them for what they are doing.
Family Research Council has been involved in protecting traditional marriage nationwide and fighting against the killing of unborn babies. FRC recently supported and promoted the Chick-Fil-A Appreciation Day. I was one of the many people who waited in line to get a chicken sandwich at Chick-Fil-A to support free speech and support traditional marriage. It was a record breaking day for Chick-Fil-A. Those opposed to Chick-Fil-A and Christian, conservative values must have been very upset to see that that most Americans support family values. Chick-Fil-A Appreciation Day brought thousands of supporters to EACH Chick-Fil-A all across America. The anti-Family, Pro-Abortion, Pro-Homosexual Marriage supporters were only able to get very few supporters to show up to protests "kiss ins" at few Chick-Fil-A locations in America.
It seems as though this shooting was motivated by hate and anger by a man who does not like the Christian, conservative beliefs of FRC or Chick-Fil-A. It does not help that this hate was likely fueled by liberals and Democrats who got on national TV and illegally and unconstitutionally threatened to use their government power to kick Chick-Fil-A out of their cities because of the personal Christian beliefs of the owner of Chick-Fil-A. These liberals call for tolerance of other people's beliefs, unless you are a Christian and then they don't seem to believe your beliefs should not be tolerated. They go past just not tolerating Christian beliefs though. Can you imagine a mayor saying that no businesses would be allowed to open in his city if the business was owned by a gay person? There would be national outrage! And yet, the liberal media did not seem outraged that mayors in cities like Boston and Chicago openly stated that they would prevent a business (Chick-Fil-A) from opening in their cities because the owner has Christian beliefs.
What a sad day in America.
Even as I post this article, the liberal New York Times has the articles about this shooting at the bottom of the news section under the title "More News." Higher up on the NY Times front page, under the main news section, they have a much more breaking news article titled: Gay Male Stand-Up Comics Await Spotlight
The liberals want to kill us for not killing babies.
They’ve identified the FRC shooter as Floyd Corkins, 28 years old. So far, the information I’ve found on him says he lived in Herndon, VA, that he was an elementary school teacher at Tuckahoe Elementary School in Arlington, and that he may have been in the Air Force at one time, and may have been stationed at Andrews AFB. He also apparently lived in Oklahoma City previously.
I won’t give the address I found, just in case, but it appears that the total property value for his property in Herndon is $330,640.
He appears to be affiliated with George Mason University (probably a former student) and signed an online petition - http://www.petitiononline.com/petitions/gmutariq/signatures?page=2 - demanding that Tariq Khan be released. Tariq Khan was a GMU student and former Air Force member, who was arrested for leading a violent protest against military recruiting on campus (i.e. definitely left-leaner).
This may be his Facebook profile: http://www.facebook.com/Floyd.Jackie.corkins
I haven’t seen any pictures released of the perp yet, but from his Facebook friends list, he is probably African-American.
That's the liberal way!
Wouldn’t surprise me if he was a convert to the religion of peace.
Might explain the Tariq Khan connexion. A lot of the names on the petition were Muslim, as well.
Looks like another Democrat acts out their fantasy.
Well done.
Just as it's impossible for blacks to discriminate against whites, liberals trying to kill Christians for being against abortion can not possibly be terrorism. You people just don't get it do you?
Irony of the day.
The shooter’s sole Facebook interest was “Living a Happy Life”.
I’m sure they’ve been high-fiving all day long at Planned Parenthood, GLAAD, DU, DKos, HuffPo, ABCBSNBCNNMSNBC and the White House.
“he was an elementary school teacher”
Another one?
Gays cannot produce children.
As long as Eric The Red and his ilk are in charge of the DOJ, the blacks will get away with endless acts of discrimination from white voter suppression to generalized intimidation. You wait, we'll see New Black Panthers and billy clubs manning the doors at polling places in November.
Handsome is as handsome does.
This is just the start.
When the libs find out that they can get away with this with impunity, there will be more.
OWS has moved.
Just another MSNBC Klux Klan useful idiot, demanding ‘Tolerance!’ through violence.
Rachel Maddow should be held DIRECTLY responsible for this. She has been pimping this anti-Christian HATE for weeks now.
It’s not suprising that one of her followers, already teetering on the edge of sanity to begin with, would step over the line.
(Oh well, one can have hope, can’t they?)
AMEN!!!!!! They want to kill US because we don’t kill BABIES!!!!
Liberals are the most violent, mean-spirited, hate-filled, baby-killing murderers.
