Members DramatistDreamer Posted June 14, 2017 Members Share Posted June 14, 2017 Sen. Jeff Flake of Arizona just spoke at length about the shooting as he was one of those on the baseball field. I saw bits of it on the livestream. The shooter was described as a chubby, White male who had a LOT of ammo. A Black man (not sure whether he was part of the police detail/security detail) who had been shot in the leg, took down the shooter. Trump, not making a formal statement so far ( because...not a terrorist, I guess), has only tweeted and has only mentioned Rep. Scalise though others were shot too. No ridiculous statements from the NRA yet, but it's still early... EDIT: The man who took down the shooter, appears to be a policeman. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
