If they don't report a Trump/Limbaugh/NRA connection in the next hour, assume it's a lib wacko.

He asked if they were republican or democrats so he was targeting republicans.

From a Washington Post article
"Scalise, 51, a representative from Louisiana, is the third-highest ranking House Republican and has a round-the-clock Capitol Police detail."
"Flake said that it took almost 10 minutes to take down the shooter."
I think the Capital Police need to spend some more time at the shooting range, not that I would do better but they are professionals.
Any bets on if the rifle was an AR?

How many officers were on duty, I would sure think we should have more than one security guards if there is that many congressman present?

.... and the shooter is in custody..... There goes another 100 million dollars in his due process... Shoot the bastard dead. Save us all the time, hassle and money.

I may have been harsh on my shooting range comment. Rifles versus pistols at a baseball field ... not sure of the distance but from behind a dugout to 2nd base is about 100 feet, maybe 20 feet closer if it was softball diamond.
The shooter may have had cover(dugout) and the police did not.

Witness stories varied fromy a couple of minutes to 10, automatic handgun vs semiauto, etc. My wife was watching, I got fed up with non-stop speculation reporting and went back to work.
