How could that be?! Illinois is about as hostile to the Second Amendment as you can get.

The shooter is probably a Democrat.

According to latest reports from a worker at the scene, suspect entered the capitol building with a shotgun, shot a security guard in the stomach, and then got in a car and fled. Security guard is down, condition unknown. Will update more when I find out.

It is purely coincidental that this happened immediatley after Gov. Blagoevitch & Mayor Daley announced that they will try to get a California style weapons ban thru during the veto session

Yahoo is saying they have no metal detectors at the state capitol and the guards are unarmed. I think that's going to change in a hurry...

See what happens when the Assault Weapons Ban expires? I'm surprised we haven't heard from Diane Feinswine yet.

Neither the Governor nor the legislators in the building at the time.
