Is there any word as to motivation?

It does not seem as if anyone had a reason to shoot this particular individual, or his aide. I could understand it if someone was pot shotting Jeff Sessions, Mike Pence, or The President himself, because all of these people have made very justly angry enemies over the years. Sessions tried like stink to suppress the civil rights movement, Pence is a homophobic piece of dirt, and Trump pisses just about everyone he ever did business with, right off.

But this fellow... I know of no particular thing which would invite the necessary ire for someone to shoot him with a rifle in such a manner. Anyone have any idea what might have motivated this, beyond the casual assumptions and weak tribalism people usually blame for this sort of activity (despite simplistic explanations of complex problems being invariably inaccurate)?


Wow you are disgusting.

People shot and you giving justification as to why people deserved it.

Way to show your true colors.

Taking Hi Moral ground? Ignoring whole nations decimated in "Wars of Terror", yah, I kinda see foggy too.



Have I ignored that? I guess I was required to say every time there is a shooting or tragedy that it pales in comparison to those that die in the middle East.

I find your excuses to justify this shooting to be disgusting, and part of the problem.

How many people here were aware of the charity game, that it was coming up, when practices were scheduled to happen?
I am just curious as to how the shooter had planned this. It doesn't seem like a random attack. There must have been some research and planning that was involved.


This is why I hope the shooter is still alive... need to find out how he planned it.

Well, Paul said they had been practicing for two months. So, if the shooter is from the area and uses the park, he could know about it. Or if he is associated with the Capitol or DC government in someway.

So now liberals openly ask us if we are Conservative "Republican" then open fire? ????? The civil war is on. It's about time Conservatives wake up and realize liberals want us dead...they want our kids dead...they want to erase any memory of our belief system. We lose this battle we lose the future and effectively enslave mankind to liberal philosophy

Who benefits the most from this attack?

My money is on the MSM.

We'll see how things develop, but sensational violence will dominate the news today.

That means ratings go up.

I think some of the reaction to this shooting shows just how much hatred the MSM have fomented.

He asked if they were Republicans or Democrats in the parking lot before he started shooting.

So in other words it's an alibi for TPTB, and motive for the patsy.

You're right.

Just do a search for John Brown Gun Club. They're now officially insane.

The Media is to blame. They all but encourage this behaviour through their propagation of seditious views and narratives, and promoting terrorist organisations like BLM and Antifa in a positive light.

I see more attacks like this in the future if the Propaganda is not dealt with.

Hopefully everyone injured makes a full recovery and the shooter has a nice long time in prison. 50 years should do the trick.

Now, now, settle down Odin, put the battleaxe away for 5. A false flag is an incident designed to throw the blame in a particular direction, then take advantage.

Sounds like Scalise was on the ground out in the open for a few minutes as the rest of them were taking cover in the dug out... if there were no security there, then he'd be dead, as would many others.

Folks, keep an eye out for news that may slip from under us as a result if this recent tragedy.

As one member said, there is always that chance of distraction and at the very least the man is okay and NOT dead, so keep your eyes peeled.

...OR...that's what someone wants us to think.

Come on people, as ColdWisdom said, we have to really pay attention. Make no assumptions. This is a conspiracy site. Are we going to be lead by a ring in our nose down they obvious path to Civil War?

I said it earlier and I will say it again.
CNN should call and take credit because they equal terrorists and that's what ISIS would do.

Always.

I find the ' blind eye' that accuses others even more disgusting and the sole problem.
