ON TRUMP'S BIRTHDAY: Shooting at GOP baseball practice in Virginia

[El Kabong]

Damn shame and exactly what we do not want or need. First tinfoil hat host on local radio initially mouthed off about it was possibly related to N.O monuments being removed too easily . That kind of bat shit conspiratorial nonsense we see more and more that can feed these. The guy lived in his van waiting for targets of opportunity busy raging on the net it sounds. And fortunately couldn't shoot for shit but not for lack of trying.

what's amazing is there would have been zero security in place had Scalise not been there and those two officers absolutely shut him down. Make those two stars!Unfortunately sounds like Scalise took much more damage than initially thought.

Why again were the statues of Confederate Generals being taken down? They ARE a part of history....a part of history well worth remembering.

These "How could this have been prevented" and "What warning signs were there that this guy would go off" angles are becoming tiresome and repetitive. In this particular case, the answer is basically "NOTHING, pretty much." It's a classic horse and barndoor scenario.

Society is f*cked up, and this is the new normal. Can you imagine trying to profile all these nutjobs BEFORE they have a chance to commit their hideous crimes?? You'd have to spend $$ BILLIONS to keep track of all the mentally unhinged people running around who might possibly potentially maybe probably empty their gun clips on a bunch of people someday.

Simply put they shouldn't have been. Landrieu grabbed onto rising racial tension much from murderer Dillion roof and is a misguided muppet who believes deleting inanimate symbols and monuments will right the strife and struggle that can often be N.O. in the name of "moving the City forward" and that they were "symbols of a cult of a lost cause". In 2015 City Council voted them a public nuisance. Landrieu frankly stoked discord on 'either side' that really citizens do not wear on their sleeves or take to heart. People here take pride in Southern culture and they take pride in getting along. Apparently he's also convinced himself that the Civil War was entirely and strictly about slavery and nothing else. Citizens of all makes and models are concerned about one thing mostly and it's just being honest...crime and getting shot! Next time I have a statue of Robert E. Lee kick in my front door I'll let him know, just glad we've lessened that chance now . You simply cannot bleach and sanitize history or sweep it under the rug. Supporting the real picture of a historical Cities best and worst times does not make you a flag waving nutter. When Politicians start erasing historical facts in the name of manufactured public opinion we should all be concerned. I don't pretend to speak for ancestors of slaves and racism IS alive and well..but collectively, and N.O is a great melting pot that unites like no other, we have MUCH bigger fish to fry. Like crime if I had not mentioned it . Oh and pot holes and weak levees.

Initial cost was stated at near 700,000k but when all was said and done it was 2.1 Billion! They actually used off duty firemen..unknown to even their president..who wore masks and flak jackets. And ready for this..under the cover of snipers at 1 or 2 A.M. Now some of the proposed contractors and companies did receive random death threats that were found to be from "anti removal" groups. As did the NOFD after the first was removed. Likewise we had a couple dozen shittards from the "pro removal" side smash downtown shop windows and run rampant with graffiti. I do believe that the majority of both were outsiders. City has it's problem but we are not at each others throats like that. Not at all. I've had too much coffee tonight.

THE DEMOCRAPS pitbulls like Colbert et al calling daily for beheading Trump have caused this.

It didn't take long for all those left leaning on social media to go from "Aww, well I hope he gets better" to "Soooo, basically he got what he deserved"


I guess Steve Scalise shouldn't have done all that wrongthink yo, why ain't you woke Steve? Woke up everyone!!!! Get woke stay woke! That's how you don't get shot by an insane leftist!

Belee dat

The shooter was apparently a child abusing alcoholic and drove his foster child to suicide he was such a miserable bastard....the world is better off without him.

How do the Democrats support NYC's Shakespeare In The Park version of 'Julius Caesar' featuring Donald Trump both before AND after this shooting?

Has anyone, I mean ANYONE seen any "Gee, maybe I should tone down my rhetoric" think pieces from the Left? I certainly haven't.



Obama as President was SO protected that a rodeo clown who dared wear an Obama mask was FIRED from his job....when he had done the very same for previous Presidents Reagan, Bush, and Clinton. And not only did he get fired, he received death threats........for having the audacity to joke about a President.


I'm a free speech guy, I'm not calling for the show to be banned or stopped or anything like that....it's just the support of such ain't helpful. People think they are justified in violently attacking Republicans rather than beating them at the ballot box and that is a shame.
