I often wish that someone would shoot me when I'm forced to go to a baseball game. So are these congressmen really victims or are they the luckiest men on Earth?

If this guy was on medicaid he should just claim that he was acting in self defense.

Not sure what was going on with security when the guy apparently walked right up to a congressman and asked their political affiliation before walking over to the other congressmen and starting to shoot.

That's because this probably didn't happen.

When you go to a baseball game, pretty much the only excitement is whether you're going to catch a fly ball, so I'd say Scalise is probably pretty happy right now. He should have the shooter sign the bullets.

I think guns should be registered and gun owners should get proper training and licensing before they're allowed to attempt political assassinations.

All these dudes on the news right now talking about how great it is that the incident was ended quickly and they're keeping the community safe. Like anyone outside of those directly associated with Congress doesn't wish the guy was still shooting.

I wonder what they'll do if it turns out the shooter is a republican voter angry about the republican health care bill. Would it be considered an act of self defense?

But seriously, people shouldn't have guns and it's good that nobody was killed (as far as I know).

Hopefully we'll be smart enough to deal with this the same way we've dealt with last year's shootings at Minnesota State, Northern Arizona, USC, U of Georgia, Bethune-Cookman University, Lane College, Delaware State, Johnson C. Smith University, U of Florida, Wichita State, Texas Southern, Savannah State, Delta State, Montana Tech, and a half-dozen community colleges:

By finally making it illegal to ban guns from baseball games.

Surely you don't mean anything else, as that would be victim blaming people that were shot.
