Shots fired at the Capitol (April 2021)

Post by billryan »

Our Capitol is on lockdown with reports of one or more active shooters, according to the DC Fire Department.
Thoughts and Prayers.

Anyone else think they should take away the added security?

Reports are that a guy rammed officers and jumped out of his car with a knife and they shot him. No active shooter.

Sounds like security worked out at current levels in this case.

The barriers have already been removed if I'm not mistaken.

A week ago, that street would have been closed to traffic, nipping the incident in the bud.
The suspect is said to have expired.

Now it is being reported one of the Officers has died from his injuries.
I'm not sure I would say the security measures worked.

Tell that to the officer's family. The only silver lining is the perp's fate.

The perpetrator allegedly had turned toward the "teachings" of Louis Farrakhan and the Nation of Islam. The Nation of Islam has been categorized as a hate group by the SPLC.

So much for blaming Donald J. Trump for this one Lefties, maybe next time.

Did anyone here blame trump or anyone for what happened? It's freaking sick when a Police Officer is killed and you seem to be celebrating that it wasn't done by what I guess you think is your side.

Don't lecture me about the death of that Capital police officer and don't you dare say that I am celebrating it.

Look back to your opening post here and even a blind man could see that you were just salivating at the chance to turn this into another anti-Trump rant. That post did not contain one bit of factual information and your sole purpose was to post it and stir things up.
