And so the assassinations begin... https://www.infowars.com/leftist-gu...-congressman-in-media-inspired-terror-attack/

Looks like he'll recover, though. So only attempted murder will likely be charged. https://twitter.com/realDonaldTrump/status/874971795362897921

But....I thought these GOP congressmen were all armed and could take down an assailant no problem?

Having said that, violence is never the answer and hopefully all recover regardless of their political leanings.

Just seems like an overenthusiastic Trump supporter exercising his 2nd Amendment Rights.

You know Republicans are behind closed doors celebrating this. This is exactly what they needed to change the subject.

No doubt they are popping the champagne corks as we speak, overjoyed some guy came and shot up their baseball team.

The right wing media outlets are already making political hay out of it, not to mention the president's son. So yeah, I don't think they're weeping.

DC city code:

You did read statements from Rep. Duncan that he's giving to the police, about how the assailant asked which political party was practicing, yes?

So far the GOP has the only jackwagon Congressman doing it:

While most elected officials steered clear of attempting to turn breaking news about the shooting into a partisan issue, Rep. Chris Collins (R-NY) told a Buffalo radio station, “I can only hope that the Democrats do tone down the rhetoric.”

Your point is well taken, but I do see a difference between "This shooting further demonstrates the need for more gun control" and "Liberals caused this shooting".

edit: and there you have it:

There's a pretty big difference between one side blaming the "libruls" and the other side that would maybe like to save a few lives here and there. All Freedom aside.

The shooter will not be receiving a trial. Judge, jury, and executioner have already carried sentence.
