He’s a nasty old baby boomer, full of smug arrogance. There’s a lot of them.

And I say that as a baby boomer myself.

.....”Seems that some folks need to be held responsible for the incendiary terrorist rhetoric they have used to incite this type of behavior”.....

Doubt that’s going to happen.....Demorats already calling for gun control...blaming Trump....next it will be Russia’s fault!

“Looks like a lot of SEIU types...”

From friend:

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

Yep.....and so his life has ended.
I think the guy was full of rage that had not only festered over the Demorats sabotaging his candidate Bernie.....but the media and Hillary and Obama and others leading this ‘resistance” obstruction of our Pres and Administration looks like he took in a steady dose of hate ....which when complete always leads to death.

You can tell from his TV show likes that he’s an unhinged moonbat.

Hossiermama....All.....this seems to be the best depiction of what went down....Coming From Bishop who saw it all,.....

Michigan Rep. Mike Bishop was attending the practice around 5:30 a.m., in Alexandria, when shots rang out. He said he and his colleagues were “sitting ducks.”

“As we were standing here this morning, a gunman walked up to the fence line and just began to shoot. I was standing at home plate and he was in the third base line,” Bishop said. “He had a rifle that was clearly meant for the job of taking people out, multiple casualties, and he had several rounds and magazines that he kept unloading and reloading.”

(The shooting went on for roughly 10 minutes, with some accounts putting the number of shots fired around 100.)

“The only reason why any of us walked out of this thing, by the grace of God, one of the folks here (security detail traveling with Scalise) had a weapon to fire back and give us a moment to find cover..... We were inside the backstop and if we didn’t have that cover by a brave person who stood up and took a shot themselves, we would not have gotten out of there and every one of us would have been hit — every single one of us,”.... said Bishop.

“He was coming around the fence line and he was looking for all of us who had found cover in different spots. .....But if we didn’t have return fire right there, he would have come up to each one of us and shot us point-blank.”

“Two of our staff was hit, Steve Scalise was hit on second base, I watched him get hit and I couldn’t do anything to help him..... We tried to get him off as fast as we could but this guy was relentless with his fire,” ...said Bishop..... “One of our staffers got hit in the chest and I pray for him, I just don’t know what the outcome is going to be. This is a tragic situation and frankly, it’s changed everything as I know it forever.”

Bishop said the man didn’t speak a word.

“He stood there silently. None of us saw him walk up,” he said. “One of our coaches had his son, his 11-year-old son — I have an 11-year-old son, too, who’s supposed to be here — and I am just, I can’t even tell you, I don’t know. Fortunately everybody’s OK. It’s just traumatic.”

Oh dear....I trust God he’ll pull through this shooting.....very serious situation all around.
The political climate has fueled this as we know
and it sickens me hearing the Dem. Leadership suddenly
talking about ‘we’re a family’ and “need to come together”.

They’re acting like a kid who’s snuggling up to their parents hoping they won’t be too harsh with them if they just be really really nice....UNTIL it passes over.
