He may owe his life to the aide that had a belt on or borrowed one and used it to try to control bleeding

Yeah. And the Gifford shooting was caused by Sarah Palin and her target symbols.

I certainly hope you are being sarcastic. The two situations are apples and oranges.

CNN Management now in huddle on how to either ignore this event or represent shooter’s background in true fake news fashion.

Prayers to those involved, hope the perp was a poor shot (mostly made a lot of noise) and reports of shooter being dead are correct.

Launch the legislation today to rename the USS Gabby Giffords to the USS Scalise, since being a victim of a shooting is a qualification for such a thing. Not a gun-free ship to please Ms Gabby, ya know.

Occurred near a YMCA. At first I thought, well it figures, but then I saw that the weapon was a rifle. They better get to the bottom of this and not “sanitize” it, for political purposes.

[ Now we have our own Gabby Gifford, who can use the moral superiority of the victim her handlers try to use, to actually place the blame on the shooter and not the gun....or guns in general. ]

It only works ONE WAY when it comes to liberals sympathy whoring themselves out...

Just confirmed: Fellow Republican who left a few minutes prior was approached by the gunman who asked them "Are those Democrats or Republicans?".

Congressmen then drove up to plains clothes Capital Police and gave report. Man showed back up and started shooting.

Here's what will happen next: Mentally unbalanced liberal will have a manifesto or online tirade, be on a watch list, be a hero to the left and will inspire "you go man" by DU types....while the MSM buries the narrative and goes for "More gun control"!

Time to arm yourselves, carry daily, and make a list BLM/Antifa members/supporters & liberals you know.

/// The globalist are hoping/counting on open violence by both sides to move their agenda forward. At least that is what they are planning for ///

I wonder if globalists are at all concerned about a lone wolf sniper lying in wait half a mile away when the open violence they hope for occurs? Perhaps they think that people are so stupid and so ill-informed that THEY won’t be target.

If it were a video game and not real life, nailing a globalist would score as many points as taking out ten thousand Antifa street thugs.

Will the left blame Sarah Palin?

Actually, they probably will.

10 to 20 rounds fired before security was able to react

My trauma first aid is pretty limited, but I am not sure how you would tourniquet a hip shot. But pressure on the spot is the universal first step.

Any bets in whether this is a Bernie supporter?


Maybe another college professor/Antifada member?

This early in the morning; this is not some random shooting. This was planed. The shooter knew the practice schedule for the GOP baseball team. His intent was to murder GOP members.

Thanks MSM, for fanning the flames of hated. This is all on you. You f’ng bastards.

Beat me to it.

The hate the left is spewing is real and constant.

Palin did not engage in hate. The left projected THEIR hate fantasies onto her.

Hate is the foundation of liberal/democrat existence.
