The history On June 14, 2017, a mass shooting occurred during a practice session for the annual Congressional Baseball Game in Alexandria, Virginia. 66-year-old James Hodgkinson shot six people, including U.S. House Majority Whip Steve Scalise, U.S. Capitol Police officer Crystal Griner, congressional aide Zack Barth, and lobbyist Matt Mika.

Given the history I would of had snipers at the game and opened fire! That’s how you stop these actions! We have the right to peaceful protest, not storm an event for unknown reasons. Remember 2017 and shoot next time! End of problem……

Agree, and it's doubtful any of the lawbreakers will receive any punishment.

“”Given the history I would have had snipers at the game and opened fire!””

Absolutely correct. I can’t believe protesters could get anywhere near the field after 2017. There was security around the ballpark that day and they were alert and able to contain it and called immediately for help from surrounding fire houses etc. The players themselves did a good job of helping the wounded Congressman Scalise off the field. They had to be very cautious at revealing themselves as no one knew where the gunman was. His book about the ordeal is amazing...he dragged himself across the dirt field to the grass leaving a trail of blood. Long painful recovery but he made it...

What's this "we" nonsense. Only fags and commies and spics have the right to protest. Our side winds up in dungeons. Hence, J6.
