Had it been DemocRATS receiving fire, the MSM would have gone wall-to-wall with the story and would have already tried and convicted Trump and the Republican “leadership.”
Taken cover on the field? Pitchers mound ain’t that tall. Journalists.............
I think Dr. Paul was in the practice cage on the adjacent field, beyond the centerfield fence. That is why he was not among those attending to Scalise.
Can’t help but think that the Shakespeare play in the park (where POTUS is attacked) is adding fuel to the fire and is emboldening the crazies more.
It was only a matter of time before something like this happened.
Paint them as the party of lawlessness.

“As we were standing here this morning, a gunman walked up to the fence line and just began to shoot. I was standing at home plate and he was in the third base line,” Bishop said. “He had a rifle that was clearly meant for the job of taking people out, multiple casualties, and he had several rounds and magazines that he kept unloading and reloading.”
The shooting went on for roughly 10 minutes, with some accounts putting the number of shots fired around 100. Four people were injured, including two Capitol Hill police officers and House Majority Whip Steve Scalise, of Louisiana. The suspect was also shot.
“The only reason why any of us walked out of this thing, by the grace of God, one of the folks here had a weapon to fire back and give us a moment to find cover. We were inside the backstop and if we didn’t have that cover by a brave person who stood up and took a shot themselves, we would not have gotten out of there and every one of us would have been hit — every single one of us,” said Bishop. “He was coming around the fence line and he was looking for all of us who had found cover in different spots. But if we didn’t have return fire right there, he would have come up to each one of us and shot us point-blank.”
Was the shooter a gun control advocate?
Between Muslims and Libtards, it looks like we have to face the fact that Civil War II is underway. Let’s not forget the drug gangs who will be on the other side as well.
Add in “rogue” AgencyPersons wanting to make a ‘Hail Mary’ effort to protect their gubment job, bennies, retirement, ad nauseam - as the Chinese say, Interesting Times.
Meanwhile, Americans all across the land are arming up and the word of our time(not just the day) is B.L.O.A.T.
For those with no knowledge of the situation, the acronym means Buy Lots Of Ammo Today.
May G*d rot the Libtards, and collectivists. Muslims, too.
Look for the Democrat propaganda machine to kick into high gear today, and try to spin this as a “Gun Safety” issue (that’s the more benign term they are using these days in place of “Gun Control” - same agenda, new name.) Also, look for the name Gabby Giffords to be repeatedly invoked in an effort to divert attention away from the fact that the shooter was deliberately targeting Republicans.
“The shooting went on for roughly 10 minutes, with some accounts putting the number of shots fired around 100. Four people were injured....”
Jihadi or gang banger marksman. Was he holding the rifle sideways? (gang banger). Was he holding the rifle over his head? (Jihadi).
“and he described the gun as sounding like an AR-15.”
Did it sound like...”PEW PEW PEW PEW PEW PEW”?
100 shots and only 5 hits.
How many shots did it take to down the sniper?
