security guard at the Family Research Council's headquarters in Washington, D.C. is being hailed as a hero after he stopped a gunman posing as an intern, taking a bullet in the arm before wrestling the suspect to the ground.

The gunman entered the lobby of the organization's Chinatown headquarters around 10:45 and expressed disagreement with the conservative group's policy positions, Fox News has learned. When the guard, who was not identified, asked him where he was going, he opened fire, according to police.

That line has already been scrubbed in favor of:

Police and FBI officials said it’s too early to know the circumstances of the shooting, which occurred around 10:45 a.m. at the headquarters of the Family Research Council, or whether it was connected to the group’s activities.

Here is a pic of the leftist loon https://twitter.com/ChrisLoesch/status/235815023736414208/photo/1

He does not particularly look gay; nor like he had an abortion. So what is the deal here? I'm sure all the major media will investigate who paid this loser.

So, in that vein, we shouldn’t also “speculate” overbroadly until we get more facts>>>>>>>>>>>

Of course speculation speaks whatever it will. But history does not lie.And many have been gathering facts since 2007. Just examine closely Obama’s conduct in Kenya in 2006/2007.Fascist all the way.

This is a very good read:

It was reported that after being disarmed, the perp asked the injured guard not to shoot him. Apparently, he was willing to kill for the cause. >>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>

Typical leftist radical. But hey, soon he likely will be dead or a conservative.

Now we are seeing glimpses of the left wing fascists who are willing to die for their cause.

From the article:

Sources told Fox News that after guard took away his gun, the suspect said, "Don't shoot me, it was not about you, it was what this place stands for."

I'd say he was willing to "kill" for their cause, but not to "die" for it.

No what we are seeing is the fascists & leftists deciding that killing those who disagree with them is justified this will continue to go down hill so make your preparations accordingly .

You can thank Iowa State Troopers for keeping Mr. Ryan safe not the Secret Service.
