Indeed it is. But in this case, the location of where the car “crashed” isn’t indicative of someone trying to flee but rather someone trying to go after a target.

The gunshot was probably just Buttigieg’s bicycle stunt backfiring.

I didn’t hear about another insurrection being scheduled.

Be weird if the injured officers were among those who waved the 01/06/21 rioters in.

An “assault knife?” Has a Congressional Democrat introduced a bill to ban those (yet)?

I just saw news video of the lifeless perp on a gurney being given chest compressions. He didn’t look too good.

It'll be legislation banning knife bump stocks.

Sodom on the Potomac, D.C. Gunfire?? Where everyone cannot own a gun because of draconian laws?? Naw. The gangs in Sodom don’t own guns. They STEAL guns from law abiding citizens and shoot up the town and now the NG troops are guarding the scum in the congress who cry wolf and demand protection from the wacko’s of the racist right wing groups!!!

HA! Yeh when is there not gunfire in DC?

[SgtHooper]

LOL!

That person on the gurney being given CPR was a person of color. He appears to be African American but he could be middle eastern or possibly hispanic. But, he is not a “white supremacist.”

Running into a strongly engineered barricade is a low probability of success move. This is one of those heavy steel panels on a hinge that is buried in the street; its default position is up, and it is lowered when someone with the right pass drives in. Ya ain’t gonna crash through it in a car. Or even a truck. The stupid runs strong in some people. The barricade in question is part of the post-9/11 security upgrade. It has nothing to do with the new Camp Pelosi fortifications that went up this year.

" It comes as the Washington region remains on edge nearly three months after a mob of armed insurrectionists stormed the Capitol as Congress was voting to certify Joe Biden’s presidential win.

Perp is dead, according to the All Barack Channel known as ABC News

Probably a crazed meth head hobo living out of his car

Read your URL. It mentions "since the armed insurrection". Sheesh, when will they stop with that outright lie? From what I understand, the only people who were armed were two motorists who got pulled over. They were both legal guns, but you can't carry in DC.

None of the some 400 arrested so far were carrying. Many of the charges are now being dropped or reduced to misdemeanor trespassing. Some "armed insurrection". Geez.

Never forget that an un-armed female Veteran was shot and killed at almost point blank as she stuck her arm through a broken window. We still don't know who killed her.
