It's not a non-event, it's an "isolated incident".

"Construction workers and police said the man drove his SUV through a barricade at the Capitol"
If he went through it, i'd say it wasn't much of a barricade. I find it extremely worrisome that he got into the capitol. I'm Glad he didn't have a jacket full of explosives...

No worries... If the guy is a black southern congressman, it was racism, and he'll get a slap on the wrist.

The man was armed with a gun, said one security officer speaking anonymously pending an official briefing. The officer said the man was captured by police after running through the Rotunda in the center of the Capitol and down a stairway into the basement.
It seems he managed to make a rather extensive trip on foot during his excursion through the Capitol Building. How did Security allow him to get that far? Is Barney Fife the only guard on duty that time of day?

He got into the basement?
As far as building security goes, isn't that 'game over' at that point?
No description of the attacker is supplied. No name, nothing. Care to open the wagering on the religious affiliation of the suspect in question?

So 2 terrorists with an SUV could get into the Capitol building and kill our Congresscritters.
Where's all that security again?
To: NormsRevenge
to get into the Rotunda, you have to first go up some pretty steep steps outside, thru security inside the doors .. this just doesn't make sense. But what in Washington does ?

Police cordoned off the vehicle, a light-colored SUV, which sported a "kerry/edwards" election sticker on its damaged front fender, and were searching it. ;'}
