According to one TV station in Minneapolis, he is the majority ‘white’, I kid you not.

I blame the Democrats for this...

They want a Civil War because they lost a rigged elections, and know President Trump is bringing back America.

They are crazy and will fail if they try this.

Maybe Shakespeare in the Park will present a critically acclaimed play about this.

FoxNews suggesting this may be a conspiracy. Jogger came by and asked if the guys on the practice field were Republicans or Democrats.

My trauma first aid is pretty limited, but I am not sure how you would tourniquet a hip shot. But pressure on the spot is the universal first step.

I was wondering the same thing.

/// Time to arm yourselves, carry daily, and make a list BLM/Antifa members/supporters & liberals you know. ///

I’d put main stream media (e.g. The New York Slimes, The Washington Compost, CNN etc at the top of that list)

You should also evaluate your neighbors... as to which ones would support you, which ones might come after you, and which ones would simply try to lie low and hide from it all.

Perhaps start forming neighborhood watch with like-minded people, with the idea of banding together when SHTF. Also assess which direction the local law enforcement is liable to go in.

Good GAD. Given the station involved, have to ask: accident or ON PURPOSE.

Imagine if this was a Trump crazed Dem. Imagine further if leader Scalise was not accompanied by security, whose guns stopped this before everyone was killed.

Listening to it...

The gunman asked someone leaving if it was Dems Or Repubs who were practicing.

This was without a doubt targeted.

-- ... then I saw that the weapon was a rifle. They better get to the bottom of this and not "sanitize" it, for political purposes. --

Some people say that the shooter was encouraged by Democrats in Congress.

Just putting that out there so the press can run with it.

Jogger, huh? Presumably a jogger hauling around something toting a long gun, unassembled or not, would stick out, so at least 2 people?

A hip wound would not be treatable with a tourniquet. Likely it was treatment for an extremity wound to a different victim.

To quote “The Hunt for Red October”:

“This business will get out of control. It will get out of control and we’ll be lucky to live through it.”

I think the guy with the tourniquet was the staffer who was hit in the calf.

Shooting started about 7:15 , about 10 min. after a guy asked if the group was Republican or Dems

Morning Joe had Rand Paul recounting and they are replaying/commenting on his eyewitness account. Scalise trying to drag himself off field, two aids being shot at laying on the ground, one sprinted over 20ft wall where Rand was on the other side at batting cage. Brooks used tourniquet on Scalise?, Rand suggesting ar-15 and reloading? (pauses).
