The White House has been put on lockdown after a person was shot outside. Visitors wrote on Twitter that they saw 'lots of people with guns' after shots were heard. The shooting took place on 17th and E Streets NW at around 2pm, the United States Park Police said. It is not clear who has been shot or whether they have been killed.

Gee, that was awfully convenient.

Just as Trump was finished with a speech at the NRA-ILA (Institute for Legislative Action) in Lousiville, Ky.

Just as Harris Faulkner (a Fox infobabe) was frothing at the mouth at the standing ovation and NRA endorsement that Trump received for his support of the 2nd Amendment, up comes the breaking news.

I wondered who was sacrificed on the altar of Obama's agenda this time. Just too cute to be a coincidence.

Now Neil Cavuto is busting his buttons and reporting on the now non-news instead of doing the job he was hired to do. What a joke--I can't wait to get these jerks out of office and hopefully behind bars.

Thank goodness the president was playing golf rather than doing his job!

Enlighten me.

The perp was brandishing a handgun.

And all this time, I thought handguns were verboten in DC.

Terrorists likely would have had a better plan then walking to the white house with an exposed weapon. I am guessing its just some angry nut.

I just watched the dailymail video - the evacs, the JBTs all dressed in stormtrooper black with military weapons, the counter-assault team, the shelter in place, the prison terminology “on lockdown,” cameras everywhere etc.

When governments reach the level of corruption the USGOV has, raping the Constitution, subverting and bypassing an entire brach of government, and when they force faggots and pervs and sickos upon shoppers and even schoolchildren and have to barricade themselves behind layers of military-grade security from “the governed” the end is very, very near.

Absolutely no difference between any third world authoritarin regime, dictatorship, or banana republic.

“While Obama is golfing.......”

If Obama is golfing then he can’t be signing stupid executive orders......there is a bright side to everything.

Hillary at her finest....now she’ll come out and say:

“See I told you so, guns are bad and what did Trump do? Went to the NRA and talked about guns, that kill people, and they endorsed him!”

All the while, as her SS is standing near by, she says: “Oh shut up and go away!” That’s how she treats these people, that why when a SS guy or woman is told where their assignment is going to be, and they hear ‘Clinton’ they asked what they have done wrong to be punished .... True story...

No, it somehow seemed fitting.

Discussing an armed overthrow of the government on an open forum is never a good idea.

In this case it would not be an overthrow, but a restoration.

Looks like it was a simple case of suicide by SS. Person approached a checkpoint near WH carrying a gun, and kept walking towards them. Their bad luck, was shot in the stomach and critical in hospital. So suicide attempt failed.

The perp was probably a transgender wanting to look up some skirts in the White House ladies room.

I was referring to the statement that it was unclear whether “they” had been killed.
