Shortly after the shooting Wednesday morning at a congressional baseball practice, Rep. Mark Walker (R-N.C.) told NBC News that it appeared the "gunman was there to kill as many Republican members as possible." Walker, who was at the practice for the upcoming annual congressional baseball game in Alexandria, Virginia, confirmed he was "shaken but okay."
Rep. Ron DeSantis (R-Fla.) recounted an "odd" encounter he had as he was leaving the field just minutes before the shooting: "There was a guy that walked up to us that was asking whether it was Republicans or Democrats out there, and it was just a little odd," DeSantis told Fox News.

Schooled and encouraged kooks.
I’d say this makes most of half of American voters VERY happy today.
This shooter likely will be considered a hero by many of the extreme left - the college crowds, the type who get violent at the thought of a conservative speaker.
This is the extreme result of NOT accepting the results of an election. I blame Hitlery and her media accomplices.
Sounds like a targeted shooting by whomever. However, can this not be that much of a shock, based upon the hate spewing from the progressives and leftists, as well as perhaps an ISIS follower.
Not kooks. Left wing terrorists. All planned out to try to create an atmosphere of fear that will affect the ability of legislators to do their jobs.
Name?, face photo, party affiliation? As if I didn’t already know.
When the Democrats are seriously stopped or stood up too, they loose their minds.
The incessant non-stop hyperventilated hate filled media fake news reports has incited this violence.
Obama...the destroyer of the American dream and Republic!!!
Those that continue to incite violence and outright hatred against Trump and Republicans need to be dealt with. Kathy Griffin, Madonna, congressmen and women like Maxine Waters, this so called play in NYC. Someone in law enforcement needs to do something NOW.
nice catch. is that an accurate date? Send it to Drudge...
Own it.
I’m sure the DNC is drugging-up some retard to do a show shoot at the window of some Dem’s summer house, so they can feign like they were targeted too.
And don't forget the New York Times enthusiastic support for a play which features the Julius Caesar character, dressed up to look like the President of the United States, who is then assassinated.
It's like a signal to other individual psychopaths to proceed with their terrorist attacks on the President or other Republicans.
Is this the first skirmish of Civil War II?
Absolutely right, oldpro.
This atrocity can be laid directly at the feet of the Associated Press.
