The suspect "made statements regarding their policies, and then opened fire with a gun striking a security guard," a source told Fox News. WJLA-TV7 reported the suspect was also shot. Sources also said the gunman may have been carrying a bag from Chick-fil-A, the embattled fast-food restaurant whose president came under fire from gay activists after he said he did not agree with same-sex marriage.I think it's pretty clear, from the suspect's own statement, that he was there in opposition to the group's politics, that he was there to terrorize conservatives because of their stands, and therefore is an unambiguous case of domestic terrorism.Sources told Fox New 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."
Authorities were treating the attack as a case of domestic terrorism, although James McJunkin, the head of the FBIs Washington Field Office, said authorities do not yet know the gunman's motive.
I am delighted to observe that it is also pretty clear that this conservative organization is well-defended. I hope the Left learns that this is how all such ventures end.
As long as the penalties for domestic terrorism exceed those for hate crimes, I'm cool with that. Since it was left on right, he'll probably get time served. /sarc
