There's a bit of good news.
Washington Post @washingtonpost 2m
Police: 2 possible shooters White man, 40-50, wearing tan, beret hat Black man 40-50, wearing olive, gray sideburns http://wapo.st/18s1bP6
LOL!
Behind every cloud....
C of Police said - “Multiple pieces of evidence” that two more involved.
The police do seem pretty sure two more are involved, citing “multiple pieces of information”.
They must have a tight perimeter to not lockdown entire city.
12? There had to be several shooters. The guy with the rifle was only getting off 3 shots at a time, with an interval of a couple of minutes.
May the deceased rest in peace. May their loved ones be comforted.
This is a massive security failure, and perhaps just the beginning of a larger coordinated attack.
Obama must be fainting in his shoes!
That is not him. Not even close. Tsarnaev’s chest is very different from naked man. See side-by-side comparison below:

The frequency of mass attacks has surged during 0bama’s presidency. This attack has the same ‘smell’ to it that Sandy Hook had. The news media dropped DEAD after Sandy Hook as if they too knew that the facts didn’t add up on that event.
“We are confronting yet another mass shooting,” President Obama said. And so it begins. “ANOTHER MASS SHOOTING”. Why the big deal? Apparently they are a daily occurence. At least in chi-town. Crank up bloomies bus. Here we go again.
I'd like to know if those multiple pieces amount to anything more than several 'witnesses' says "I heard a shot and then saw a man in a uniform with a gun".
With two suspects on the loose?
Where is Chief Moose when you need him. /sarc.
There are no ship at the Wash. Navy yard, and the only Marines w/ weapons close by are the gate guards 3 blocks away at Marine Barracks 8th and I. The Wash Navy yard is an administrative post; when I was there(stationed at the Barracks 93-95) DOD security did physical security, not the military.
Looks like the Senators are scared silly.
...and they should be.
E H Norton blathering....
“Have not had a day like this since 9/11.”
” This is a very secure facility.”
“Reserve judgement”
the republican senators have guns, the democrat senators don’t?
Coincidentally, that movie, “Blue Caprice”, came out this week.
Ohhhh man, I’ll betcha their surveillance camera system went down today. By coincidence.
