Breaking: Rep. Steve Scalise shot

[iifymbro]

"Congressman Mo Brooks on the phone stated that this was a rifle"

Aw fuk that is not good, pistol rounds are dainty little love taps compared to a center fire rifle round. Hope everyone makes it.

No description of shooter yet.

Per witnesses, suspect asked if Republicans or Democrats on the field, Republicans on the field, started shooting.

The OP said he was

Stop deflecting. Clearly the problem is baseball. We must ban baseball.

Lol.

This is going to open up a really bad can of worms if this is some US Leftist.

[tk217]

The shooter was a FUKKIN WHITE MALE?

ANTIFA seems a likely suspect.

We need to allow our congresmen to carry on the job.

Rand Paul saying it "probably would have been a massacre if Scalise had not been there, because he's congressional leadership and has added security assigned."

[JrM703]

Rand Paul: "The first shot went off, and no one hit the ground. We hear gun shots often in the South. Then we realized we are in the city."

Paraphrasing

[JrM703]

I laughed.

...and this is why we can't have nice things.

Get ready for the false flag CTers to come out because he had a rifle and failed to kill anyone while shooting at a field full of people.

I remember when Rep. Jim Webb's Aide brought his gun to Capital Hill, got in trouble. Doesn't seems like a bad idea now.

...and just happened to hit the most powerful guy out there.

I meant at the obvious absurdity of your post where the shooter wasn't identified but somehow someone clearly heard him ask if Ds or Rs were on the field. I thought you were making a funny.

A congressman is saying he had a conversation with the shooter before he attacked, and he asked if it was republicans or democrats on the field. The congressman's description of the guy matches the shooter (the basic one being reported so far is "white, chubby male"

So not only is he a fat shamer but also a transphobic bigot...how the hell does he know the person is a male?

These are the consequences for a divisive political narrative pushed by sensationalist media outlets. The left does not have the moral high ground and the political consequences of the republican majority are not cataclysmic.

I couldn't agree more.

-Liberal celebrity stages beheading of President
-Play that simulates the assasination of the President

O, no big deal!
How did we get here?

Damn, I hope he has a good government sponsored health insurance plan!

Legit political terrorism.

Except reports seem to indicate that's exactly what happened. I'm actually embarrassed for you.

Politicians, political activists, celebrities and the media have created this environment of normalizing anti-Trump/Republican violence. They are complicit in this.

How does Sam Hyde keep getting away with this?!

I don't know why, but I've always hated "reap what you plant"..."Reap what you sow", or "Harvest what you plant" sound much better in my opinion.

What a disgusting human being though.

If it was a standard pistol round he'll most likely be fine (relatively speaking).

Evil scary assault rifle being reported.

I'm sure they did their best and I hope they fully recover, but only two Capitol Police with side arms to protect that much power located in one place that's easy to access? Would seem an obvious nut/Mormon magnet.

Unemployed. Fits the bill.

[Mumra]

the fact that they are quite about the description of the suspect makes me think it's not a white dude. otherwise it'd be the headline, "Cis gendered white male radical shoots up park." etc.

[Venom08]

Typical liberal. Has 10 minutes to fire off 50 shots and barely wounds three people lmfao. Hope they torture his ass.
