Prayers for the injured
Apparently, he came up to a congressional aide and asked, "Who is that playing?" And, when that aide replied, "Some congressmen..." he asked, "Are they democrat or republican...".

I see some commentary now on whether that should be a "security" question... (i.e. one not answered when asked because of that security risk)...

People are posting things from his FB page, which would support that report (that he was a Sanders supporter). Bernie has already gone on record as condemning the act.

just an aside... I'm beginning to wonder about the political inclinations of mass shooters. What were the political leanings of the Sandy Hook shooter (known fact, since I lived one town away at the time, his family and he were very liberal Democrats. What about Columbine? etc etc etc?

Just thinking... because there are those who will insist that ALL shootings are done by right wing conservatives... they just haven't said it yet.
