Gunman opens fire on Republicans in Virginia
 
http://www.foxnews.com/us/2017/06/14...ople-shot.html

Has the left finally inflamed someone to take action against the evil Republicans?

The Reaper 06-14-2017 07:58

His goal was to kill as many Republicans as possible.

But that wouldn't reflect on the MSM or the Dim party.

With the Dems, the MSM and lib-alternate media pressing the evil Repubs 24/7, Antifa and BLM running wild without any consequences, Police standing down during protests, and George Soros funding these scum.....OH! And lets not forget all the open talk of assassination that goes un-checked.

It was only a matter of time before something like this happened, and possibly the first shot over the bow for the Summer of Rage.

"M-4 Assault Rifle" being reported.

Here comes the wave.

There goes the price of High Capacity magazines again.

Shooter has been identified. This is supposedly his Facebook page: https://m.facebook.com/jthodgkinson

If that's legit, hardly a right wing gun nut.

This is coming out... Of course the race to be "first" means very little vetting of information

1. Hodgkinson Is a Supporter of Bernie Sanders & Democratic Socialism Who Wrote on Facebook, ‘Trump is a Traitor. Trump Has Destroyed Our Democracy. It’s Time to Destroy Trump & Co.’
Also that there were reports of someone asking if the participants at the ball field were "Republicans or Democrats"

Who is James T Hodgkinson, the gunman
 
A Bernie-Buddy.

Baseball shooting: Who is James T Hodgkinson, the gunman who opened fire on congressional team practice?

The gunman who opened fire at the congressional baseball practice this morning has been named as James T Hodgkinson of Belleville, Illinois, by law enforcement officials.

Mr Hodgkinson, 66, owns a home inspection business.

He is understood to be in custody.

Mr Hodgkinson was vociferous on social media about his dislike for Donald Trump and reportedly volunteered on political campaigns for Bernie Sanders.

Charles Orear, 50, a restaurant manager from St Louis, told the Washington Post he met him during a campaign in Iowa.

“He was this union tradesman, pretty stocky, and we stayed up talking politics,” he said. “He was more on the really progressive side of things.”

The gunman was armed with a rifle and reportedly asked onlookers whether the baseball practice was held by Republicans or Democrats before opening fire.

He was shot before being taken into custody.

Retired Marine Corps General Jack Bergman, who was there on the field, just said on Fox News live that, " Had the security detail not been there, we would have had two choices; Duck and cover, or grab the bats and try to subdue the shooter."


Prayers out!:(

And Edit to add: REP Jack Bergman is a Republican from Michigan. And he spoke very eloquently for someone that just went though 50+rounds of ammo fired on a damn baseball field at 0700, IMHO.

Looks like they should be carrying in Gun Free DC.

Trump portrayed by CNN celebrity as being beheaded.

Trump murdered onstage during play in NYC.

Berkeley and other college violence...

Now this...it is becoming evident that it is the radical Statist/progressive/commies resorting to violence...

Can you imaging if this inexcusable violence happened during the Obama administration?

According to that article the source for that was CBS. Earlier this AM a lengthy on-camera interview with a witness (whose demeanor seemed much more knowledgeable than anyone CBS can muster) made a point to describe it as an "AK-47 type" referencing the "distinct profile" they have. We'll see, since round count also varies 400% depending on who you listen to. Witnesses, "witnesses" and... somewhere, the truth.

Methinks the curtain has been fully pulled back, though. The left has already been a-twitter wishing it was POTUS. Another point for The Letter; only abatement was a good guy with a gun.

The ground truth is aptly illustrated by the image below, Many of us suffered through the previous administration and saw through all the rhetoric spewed out by the players mass media, and pollsters.

If liberals can't understand the damage they are doing to this country and it's system, if they can't understand the info in the image in the context of our system...Id say that speaks volumes, even to other liberals who still have the capacity for critical thought.

The left is becoming very transparent for what it really stands for!

Senator in surgery

MSM frothing to a frenzy

Another wave of misinformed stupid forthcoming.
