One of the shooters at large is dressed in fatigues. At least one has a long gun, police said.

The police do seem pretty sure two more are involved, citing “multiple pieces of information”.

12? There had to be several shooters. The guy with the rifle was only getting off 3 shots at a time, with an interval of a couple of minutes.

May the deceased rest in peace. May their loved ones be comforted.

This is a massive security failure, and perhaps just the beginning of a larger coordinated attack.

Obama must be fainting in his shoes!

That is not him. Not even close. Tsarnaev’s chest is very different from naked man. See side-by-side comparison below:

The frequency of mass attacks has surged during 0bama’s presidency. This attack has the same ‘smell’ to it that Sandy Hook had. The news media dropped DEAD after Sandy Hook as if they too knew that the facts didn’t add up on that event.

“We are confronting yet another mass shooting,” President Obama said. And so it begins. “ANOTHER MASS SHOOTING”. Why the big deal? Apparently they are a daily occurence. At least in chi-town. Crank up bloomies bus. Here we go again.

I'd like to know if those multiple pieces amount to anything more than several 'witnesses' says "I heard a shot and then saw a man in a uniform with a gun".

In a Navy yard there would be rifles available at least to ship’s forces if not the Marine guard contingent.

There are no ship at the Wash. Navy yard, and the only Marines w/ weapons close by are the gate guards 3 blocks away at Marine Barracks 8th and I. The Wash Navy yard is an administrative post; when I was there(stationed at the Barracks 93-95) DOD security did physical security, not the military.

“Have not had a day like this since 9/11.”

” This is a very secure facility.”

“Reserve judgement”
