Scary: James T. Hodgkinson (Scalise shooter) lurked in Alexandria, VA for 2 months
ABC News Nightline | 15-June-2017 | Vanity based on ABC News Nightline

Posted on 06/15/2017 11:07:54 AM PDT by topher

The wife of shooter James T. Hodgkinson told ABC News Nightline that her husband has been in Alexandria (Virginia) for the past two months.

He was living out of his truck/van -- according to his wife.

It appears he may have been lurking in the DC area for the past two months looking for the some event to participate in -- such as the shooting on 14-June-2017.

Since he was unemployed, I wonder if he could have been investigated for vagrancy. Authorities might have found his weapons in his vehicle.

Maybe authorities in the DC Meto area should investigate out-of-state vehicles that linger in the DC Metro area for some time.

Such investigations might hopefully prevent future problems.

Maybe he was waiting for a day when the security detail wasn’t there. He just ran out of time since the game is tonight.

“Maybe authorities in the DC Meto area should investigate out-of-state vehicles that linger in the DC Metro area for some time.”

People will just learn a way to overcome that too. The key is simple, and its now right in front of everyone’s face:

Arm yourself.

So wife says he's been sneaking about Alexandria for a couple of months, living out of a vehicle? Does she know that he's armed?

Might her failure to notify authorities be considered aiding and abetting? (Just askin')

Has CNN or MSNBC claimed credit for this shooting yet?

Some Democrat or George Soros bankrolled this nutcase!!! Look, folks the Democrat Party and their lock step media know that if POTUS, Trump get his programs approved, political life is over for both of them, the Democrat Party and the biased USA media...game over!!!

All the blabber coming out of the Dems trying to make nice over this Democrat sponsored shooting is a shell game!!! Forget the guns, forget the nasty remarks.....Republicans, American voters, just go to the polls vote against the Democrat low life and the problems of our nation are solved!!! End of story!!!

Unfortunately, Crazy Jimmy is (was, now that he has assumed ambient temperature) only one of thousands of similar far-left wing-nuts out there. The vitriolic rhetoric of the Democrat Party and its leftist allies in the media and academia are entirely responsible for unhinging supporters that has led to this and other acts of violence.

Where did he get the rifle? Ammo? 100 rounds pricey. He got into trouble a few years ago...assault. Hit a kid in the face with the butt of a shotgun. Went after the daughter too. Charges dropped.

Where was this rifle when he asked if the men on the field were dems or rep? In his van? Where is his laptop?

He hung out at the YMCA across the parking lot. You can see the ballfield from there.

Maybe that's why they didn't.

That’s a lot of premeditated hate to hang out for 2 months looking for an opportunity to commit homicide.

Good luck with that. DC is packed full with people from other states who flocked there for work. They’d literally have to check out millions of people.

They should haul in the mayor for questioning, who went to the Y and had conversation(s) with him- enough to know they were on the same side politically.

Three guesses who he went there to get close to to try and kill. It certainly wasn’t a group of congressmen.
