'Multiple shootings' reported near congressional baseball game practice field: Report Live
More to follow.
Reports that Steve Scalise (R-LA) shot in hip. Security detail members returned fire and killed suspect. Staffer and security personnel also wounded. Breaking Live
Suspect more than one person involved? See how quickly that dissolves away. Conspiracy? Nooooooooo! You’re just a nut job conspiracy theorists.
Consider the source. Some people are like that. Mika and Joe are perfect for each other. Bless their hearts.
Thanks leftist media, Hollywood, leftist politicians, leftist ‘activist’ groups who promote violence when they don’t get their way.
Yes...thanks for that reminder. We’ll have to let Varney know :)
Not sure that is a quote from the shooter- I think it’s a witness describing what he thinks was on the guy’s mind
LE is presently patting itself on the back for its 2 to 3 minute response time to the venue. When seconds count, LE is only minutes away. Dandy. Didn’t the Gabby Gifford attack teach these people anything? And I’m NOT talking gun control.
Exactly!
Time to arrest and charge people making threats.
You may miss a later post of mine ... the “R or D?” question asker was described as in a running suit, and the shooter as in jeans.
The former vice presidential candidate Tim Kaine calling for fighting in the streets. These people are encouraging this behavior, along with the radical alt-left media!
That's bad form from Drudge. He's making that seem like it's a quote from the gunman, but it's really a quote of an opinion from Rep. Mark Walker: "the gunman was there to kill as many Republican members as possible." as the linked article shows.
Drudge needs to revise that, for now.
LE and government types ALWAYS praise their own conduct. Never let a crisis go to waste!
The area is heavily patrolled. Lots of VIP in the area. The police are geared up for quick response in this area.
Shooter reported as alive. Good.
This from the party that booed the mention of "God" in their platform and that refuses to publicly condemn the depiction of the murder of President Trump in the name of "art".
I am not buying it folks. Posers.
Watch the DEMs pull up Trump campaign rally material, and blame Trump. That stuff has an indefinite shelf life.
“As we were standing here this morning, a gunman walked up to the fence line and just began to shoot. I was standing at home plate and he was in the third base line,” Bishop said. “He had a rifle that was clearly meant for the job of taking people out, multiple casualties, and he had several rounds and magazines that he kept unloading and reloading.”
The shooting went on for roughly 10 minutes, with some accounts putting the number of shots fired around 100. Four people were injured, including two Capitol Hill police officers and House Majority Whip Steve Scalise, of Louisiana. The suspect was also shot.
“The only reason why any of us walked out of this thing, by the grace of God, one of the folks here had a weapon to fire back and give us a moment to find cover. We were inside the backstop and if we didn’t have that cover by a brave person who stood up and took a shot themselves, we would not have gotten out of there and every one of us would have been hit — every single one of us,” said Bishop. “He was coming around the fence line and he was looking for all of us who had found cover in different spots. But if we didn’t have return fire right there, he would have come up to each one of us and shot us point-blank.”
One word, FRiend: decaffeinated.
I don’t get it. Weren’t at least some of the folks dressed in shirts that said Republicans on them? If the perp was close enough to see that, why ask?
And if the perp wasn’t sure targets were gon a be there, are we to believe the perp was walking around Alexandria armed with a long gun and mass quantities of ammo?
I believe the question was asked of two GOP reps in the parking lot, not at the field.
First I want to extend prayers for all who were shot, and the families having to deal with their loved ones.
Now, I am getting real tired of the leftist politicians, the MSM, Hollywood actors, and leftist musicians and comedians constantly calling the President and all elected Republicans NAZI’s who only want to kill women, children, and minorities.
When ever a shooting takes place in America the MSM’s mantra is we need to eliminate the 2nd amendment rights of all American citizens.Well, today I am calling for the elimination of all elected democrats and any news reporter who refuse to report the truth, the whole truth, and nothing but the truth.
I know, I know. How can we know what the truth is, and who is the arbitrator of the facts. That would be time my friends, because eventually the truth comes out. It’s just that usually the leftist Democrats change the subject by obfuscating and manipulation of the media. Thus when the truth comes out, and politician that lied, get removed from office, and any reporter or news reader loses their job and they get banned from ever reporting the news ever again, and any and all musicians, actors, and others in the entertainment industry should be banned from the country.
OK, I know that will never happen, but I blame this shooting and most other shootings of rage and anger in America on the democrats and the MSM, for always jumping to conclusions and demanding we the people lose our rights instead of blaming the person breaking the law.
Just awful.
Still hearing conflicting reports if gunman is dead or not.
