I'm really surprised the MSM have not blown this up yet, I guess they are too busy blaming the shutdown on conservatives.

Retired cop shoots at court house with "assault rifle", usually when someone shoots up a court house they recently got hosed in a messy divorce or lost everything to a bank or eminent domain. He has firearms training, sounds almost if this guy just popped of rounds into the structure not really targeting anyone particular and wanted suicide by cop. We'll see how this one plays out . . .

My guess is that it is because the shooter doesn't match the desired mold for the gun control crowd to rally against -- just like the Navy Yard incident.

I guess they can't rake the muck as well as they would want. You would think "Assault rifle used against federal courthouse!" Would be right up the MSM's alley.

I'm with hacker on this. It must not be the desired story, or they haven't had enought time to spin it yet.

Sounds like suicide by cop.
