According to Congressman Mo Brooks someone had walked up to him minutes before and asked if there were Republicans or Democrats at the practice.
In the military we would call this an attack on soft targets of opportunity that suddenly appeared on the battlefield…If this were a coordinated attack there would have been numerous shooters and not a Congressman or cop would have survived.
I wonder if the shooter’s name is “John Brown?”
It looks like the shooting part of the Second U.S. Civil War has begun.
Wait for the news reports to say “Crazy Lone Wolf Shooter” in …3…2…1 seconds.
I wonder: Islamic terrorist? Leftist activist? Democrat Party Member? BLM activist?
The shooter is Tango Uniform – toes up – dead.
Shooter of the Congressmen was a Bernie supporter, Trump hater and Democrat!

Trump just on television with the standard sort of remarks…heroic cops and Congressmen…no critical remarks about the Democrats as they so richly deserve.
It appears the Capitol policemen were only along because Congressional leadership was present. If it had just been the 25 rank and file Republican Congressmen at the baseball field the affair would have been a massacre, because the would-be victims had not a gun between them and were fenced in making escape difficult.
Leftists go wild with joy!
More Symbolism: Today is Trump’s Birthday!
There should be no doubt in anyone’s mind this is a direct result of the daily hate spewing from the left and the left controlled media. Ron is correct in saying this is an opening salvo to CW II.
The jerkoff hermaphrodite governor of Virginia was quick to point out he has been a proponent of gun control from day one of his administration and “thinks about it everyday”. There is little doubt he, and others, will be beating that drum into the ground over the coming days / weeks. To him / them I say have a Coke and a smile… and shut the fuck up. Those people have helped cause this. Armed, we will finish it.
Apparently what we have here is a whole cadre of nutty progressive terrorists-

Hmmm….the guy was a member of several anti-Republican groups and asked first who was playing at the field, Republicans or Democrats.
This ain’t no equal-opportunity shooter, despite Dem attempts to paint him as one in order to distance themselves from the shooting.
Exactly…This climate of hate spewed by the Left 24/7 on their Lackey Media is the stuff civil wars are made of…If you turn back the pages of your dusty old history book on the shelf, the 1920s and early 1930s in Germany much the same thing happened – a “Hate Storm” from the German Left of Nazis and Communists…and after a long period of hate rhetoric from the German Media open civil war broke out in the streets between the Red Guards of the Communists and the Stormtroopers of the Nazis over which group of totalitarians would rule the dying German Republic.
We know that Hitler won that civil war…
Do we not see the same sort of thing today? In America, the Left has divided itself between the Old Guard Left like Hillary Clinton and the New Guard Left of Bernie Sanders, who are often at war with one another – however, both groups are the enemies of the American republicans, as was the case in Weimar Germany.
Of course, Trump wasn’t the republican Chancellor of Germany in 1933, so I think we are in for a hate storm lasting years, but not a hostile takeover.
I wonder if right thinking Americans are being “nudged” into retaliation. The leftards have demonstrated time and again that they do not hesitate to use violence. It might be best to wait a few beats, whilst preparing of course. Public opinion will turn this around pdq if there is a right wing response. I hope for a speedy recovery of those injured.
@andy:
I agree it is part of the Leftist game plan is to provoke the Right to action – to overkill; however, I don’t think this is going to happen at this stage. I mean we stayed non-violent for eight years while Obama was president.
Yes, there may be a response by mentally unstable people who will claim republican principles, but if they do they will be firmly denounced by the general run of Rightists.
It’s going to take something far bigger than this bloody incident to provoke the Right into putting on the gauntlet and start smashing faces…It’s kind of like the situation in the 1850s prior to the U.S. Civil War, where in Kansas the northern and southern factions fought one another in small armies.
But the USA is clearly headed in that direction….and next year…or maybe this summer we’ll start fighting those “Bloody Kansas” style militia battles all over the country.
Americans are well armed…on both sides….there is gasoline spread all over the American floor.
Someone will light a match one day and the unthinkable will be reality.
All I got to say to the left is,be very fucking careful.Many of us on the right know how to operate heavy equipment.
Ditches will be dug
Ronbo,
Speaking of armed Americans, have you heard of any measures being undertaken to disarm some of the Federal Agencies Obama militarised?
@Michael:
To my best knowledge nothing has been changed in that regards…and this is a worry, since loyalty of about half the members of federal government is questionable.
The Deep State runs deep.
A GOP Congressman finally had the guts to say it on air.

CNN still has it up, suggesting that the rep is about to be raked over the coals by the Left and the GOPe (but I repeat myself) for saying it.
The Proof you need that the Left (CNN) wants Trump and his supporters assassinated, as provided by CNN itself.
