Three shooters are involved in the Navy Yard shooting, a police spokeswoman said.

One of the shooters is “down,” police said, but two remain in a building on the grounds.

One of the shooters at large is dressed in fatigues. At least one has a long gun, police said.

White House statement on Navy Yard shooting

The White House issued a statement on the Navy Yard shooting Monday morning:

“The President has been briefed several times about the unfolding situation at the Washington Navy Yard by Assistant to the President for Homeland Security and Counterterrorism Lisa Monaco and Deputy Chief of Staff Alyssa Mastromanaco....

The only terrorists the DHS knows anything about are vast right wing Christian fanatics. They CAN’T be terrorists if they are Muslims! Not possibly.

Stop with the two shooter cr**...they don’t know that...it’s conjecture....There may be 5 more...

[MRadtke]

I’ll take a wild guess that if this follows the typical pattern, at least half the information we’re getting is flat-out wrong and we might never get the complete truth (if it’s politically incorrect).
Monday morning seems an odd time for a terrorist attack, maybe a domestic dispute, disgruntled employee/contractor or recently-fired employee?

I agree with you about the facts being distorted, but I would have to say that a terror attack on a Monday morning can set the tone of the news for at least a week. Sort of the opposite of a Friday afternoon news dump.

If it happened on Federal property, the Feds have jurisdiction.

Meanwhile, the stock market is soaring because it looks like Yellen will be the next Fed chief and continue the money printing.

Who cares about stocks if our country is burning?

I keep asking and asking, how can three white-black men... obviously Tea Party members, get guns into a gun free Navy area?

CONFIRMED, TWO SHOOTERS

Foxnews will NOT report that. Greg Jarret just asked the question if there was multiple shooters and no answer. Foxnews, other than Duce, Jr., is not all that good, but I can't change channels.

BS

[Mr. Lucky]

I dunno, maybe in his neck and shoulders?

[ConservativeStatement]

I was about to say this. :-)

[Sacajaweau]

They just forgot to mention which government.

[newnhdad]

This wasn’t a “robbery gone bad” it seems like more like jihad.

[Lazamataz]

ABC 7 Live Stream has confirmed by authorities, two suspects, two ‘down’, possibly shooters. Shots fired while the police cleared rooms, since one shooter is isolated, that’s your second — or even third — shooter.

Ed Zeigler of Naval District of Washington Public Affairs on FOX 5: "two shooters, I think. Of course, journos then go off multiple times chirping two shooters confirmed. This is how the fog spreads.

[LibWhacker]

Someone on Fox just said the authorities always assume there is more than one shooter, and then they search for them.
