[Valli6]

By the way, today is Trump's 71st birthday.

can anyone read what the button on his shirt says?

Probably ASHI - American Society of Home Inspectors

This is why the SPLC is retarded. Right wing violence my ass.

 

[jllundqu]

Is it just me or does this guy look like Walter from The Big Lebowski?

 

[dannno]

He not only was a Bernie supporter, he volunteered on the campaign.

 

[angelatc]

Who is going to play short stop now?

Who's on first.

This is what happens when the left and MSM sets the hate filled narrative, day after day, to take down a President and Republicans.

A Trump-hating Bernie supporter, James T. Hodgkinson

This still doesn't change my mind this isn't enough to make me not hate cops who blindly follow orders and are cowards who don't go after bad cops out of fear of others turning against them. I am glad though that Rand Paul is alive and fighting for my liberty.

It's good that the Police were there to respond. No doubt about that.

Rand is being a little hyperbolic saying that everyone would have died. That is never the case. People always run or sometimes take down the shooter without firearms (baseball practice, hint, hint).

And a huge sigh of relief goes up on the left that it was a white guy.

40 shots and a bunch of misses is understandable. I was a good shot, but the first time I shot at a deer I had buck fever so bad my shaky hands made me cleanlymiss the deer with about 3 shots. It just stood there looking at me like I was an idiot and it was within 40 yards.

Killing another man is much harder. I read a stat that in most prior wars the majority of combatants weren't aiming to kill their opponents.

In the Marines they taught us to charge straight into an ambush for this reason. It's hharder to shooot a man facing you than shooting his back sometimes.

They have poisoned all of society for their perceived political gains. Now we all pay the price.

People have private security. Scalise is the majority whip and is always accompanied by armed officers.

Still, he is one if them.

 

[liveandletlive]

wouldve been great if Rand was armed and took down that leftist loon himself.

 

[timosman]

Trump speaking now. Says shooter has died.

This is how you know it is BS.

 

[Lamp]

aw hell

I always thought congressional baseball was missing something

 

[Brian4Liberty]

Newt Gingrich is saying this is just a wacko like the guy that shot Gabby Gifford. More than one talking head has made that comparison.

Hate to break the bad news to them, the guy that shot Gifford was a true crazy person, as are the majority of mass shooters.

This guy today appears to be a fully functional person who made a conscious decision to engage in political assassination. This is far more dangerous.

He was armed. But his weapon only works at close range, and he was far away.

 

[acptulsa]

So, has anyone explained how a cadre of trained federal bodyguards allows a guy carrying an assault rifle into the venue undetected? Or are we still getting nothing but Congress critters saying, 'Don't shoot us. We're really nice. We may be robbing y'all blind, but we don't know what we're doing, so don't shoot us.'

Sounds pretty out of character
