I'm watching. Paul said he hid behind a tree and that others were hiding in the dugout. He said without Capitol Police showing up, it would have been a "massacre" because none of the Congressmen had any defense.

Senator Flake reporting shooter in his 40s-50s, white guy with dark hair.

Also reporting that Scalise dragged himself to the center of the field to be farther from the shooter.

Dear God!

Well, they had better wise up, and gun up, if they are going to be major political players. Especially Conservative Players. No way they can be protected at all times, from this kind of threat.

This will piss a lot of Republicans off. Instead of playing baseball games, maybe they'll get off their asses up there, and quit letting the Dems run their bs *Investigation* shows which are enraging the Dem Base.

I suspect that when one of the Prime Time MSM Dem Hacks gets whacked...everything changes. Sew the wind...reap the whirlwind.

Could you imagine the firestorm had the shooter been able to kill a dozen or more reps/senators? Scary thought
