Officers were scouring the area just outside the Senate with rifles at the ready. A notice broadcast on the internal television system ordered employees to “close, lock and stay away from external doors and windows."

There are so many guards / security around that area, you must have huge cajones if you're going to start firing on Capitol Hill.

Hopefully everybody in the area is alright. Not overly surprised though with what has been occurring in Washington this week.

Well, this is about the most unsurprising news I've heard in a while. When you have one small group of people in a specific building causing misery to about a million people, there is bound to be someone that's going to go off.
I hope that nobody got killed by this.

I have no idea about motives or what the hell happened but perhaps now maybe gun control can be talked about considering it is on their doorsteps.

They may have a bit of a skeleton crew going, since they're working for free right now.

Where's Channing Tatum when you need him? Hollywood should step in during government shutdowns.
