House Majority Whip Shot

Quote about shooter...
Rep. Ron DeSantis, R-Fla., told Fox News he left just before the shooting. As he walked to his car, a man asked DeSantis if it was Republicans or Democrats practicing. About three minutes the shooting began, DeSantis said.

Prayers for Rep. Scalise and all affected.

This is the kind of stuff you see in 3'rd world banana republic and cannot be tolerated.

Open season on vocal conservatives and/or Trump supporters?


Note here in the linked article immediate reference to the race of the gunman, "white gunman...", you can almost feel their commie sigh of relief that it wasn't someone black or middle eastern.
Note how they instantly inject the race...

Another reminder why it is so important to fight for our 2A Right.

"Rep. Brad Wenstrup told Fox News he "felt like I was in Iraq but without my weapon." Sen. Jeff Flake said the congressional group were "sitting ducks."

"Without the Capitol Hill police it would have been a massacre," Sen. Rand Paul told Fox News, describing the scene as "sort of a killing field."

Opening salvo of hot CW2? The left has doused the wood with gas and waved lit matches in the air since Nov 9th. You stir up enough hate with constant 24/7 criticism of everything having to do with the President and the Republican party, eventually someone is going to take the next step.

I'm sorry this happened and hope all recover quickly, however I am not surprised.

It is unclear to me how many were injured. One article said 4, another said 5. But I am struck by the comments that the shooter fired at least 100 rounds. If you can find a silver lining in this story it is that the shooter was very, very bad at what he was trying to do. Over 100 rounds fired and only 4 rounds found a target?

It is also unclear whether or not the shooter survived. If he did, this should be prosecuted as a hate crime.
Do what you say you're gonna do.

According to early reports the gunman has been arrested on the scene.
Senator Flake believes the shooter started his attack with a long gun, then switched to a handgun.
YMMV.

What I'd like to know more about the shooter is whether or not he is connected to any of the Dems, Soros, Leftist Groups etc.

Moreover,

Why did he target Republicans?
Who inspired him to do this?
Was it the latest broadway garbage about Trump assassination that triggered this desire in him?

In response to gun grabbers I would say, this is precisely the reason why you will have to take my guns from my cold dead hands if you want them.

You'd like nothing more then for all of us to be sitting ducks for you, you little fascist commie pigs.

Wow... so by Friday, every one of the 330 million Americans should be shot.

Do they even think before they speak? Of course not, why let facts get in the way of their political agenda.

The reason I'm so heated about this is due to the fact that this was not only an attack on few individuals, which would be bad enough, but this was a deliberate attack on republican Congress members, and you can just imagine the catastrophe if this lowlife would've been more "successful".

And the leftists have the nerve to lecture us about guns?

He's probably using a Bloomberg or Soros talking point that is supposed to reflect number of people shot worldwide every day.
