Prayers up that they are OK.
This is awful. Let’s hear the rest of the story before judging, FRiends.
Hope we get some more information on their condition. Both are democrats and voted against healthcare for illegals
Horrible. Prayers.

They left the plantation?
Regardless of the story, I still disapprove of this.
Ah, the unforgivable sin for a Democrat: voting against government freebies for parasites. My bet is solidly on a blue-on-blue crime.
Exactly. And it's well past time to start shooing back IMHO.
The Dems have cultivated this kind of stuff. Now the monster is coming for them.
Or were guilty of being Jewish (or just having vaguely Jewish surnames) which is enough for leftists to kill you these days.
Politics is the greatest danger to the RATS’ damockrazy. I never dreamed I’d ever see America turned into a turd world country where running for a political office could get you killed. Americans have begun assimilating into ignorant Marxist turd worlders with all of the Jo Bidenski Pedo’s “refugeez” running around cleaning our toilets and rolling our breakfast burritos.
If your enemy is shooting at each other, let them be.
We are at war. The DemocRats want to fundamentally transform America. They will not win.
Try to imagine if Commiela won.
This is FR
I knew someone (a couple of decades ago) who decided to run for state legislature.
They made the announcement and after two public appearances they started receiving death threats.
They did not even realize any of their political views were that controversial.
Being “in the arena” means you will get some people very angry—at any time.
Maybe someone thought they were not Marxist enough?
Sounds personal.
You’re absolutely correct. Making politics dangerous is one of the DNC’s greatest threats to America.
Just roaming around the dial in a new place and hit NPR news…. Interesting that NPR only said there’s a shelter-in-place in MN due to a shooter but didn’t mention that two MN dem lawmakers and their spouses were the ones shot. It did say the shooter was impersonating a cop. Probably no need for the shelter-in-place anymore…
