Active shooter taken into custody after White House Correspondents' Dinner shooting
An active shooter at the White House Correspondents' Dinner was taken into custody after shots rang out outside the venue while attendees sheltered under tables inside the ballroom. The Secret Service detained the suspect before they reached the ballroom and escorted journalists, political figures, and staff to safety. After the incident, Donald Trump pressed for access to the WHCD ballroom he has sought. The episode underscores persistent gun violence risks at high-profile political events and will prompt tighter security and renewed debate over public safety.
Leaders last night experienced what it feels like to be a student in school dealing with an active shooter. Unfortunately, the current occupant of the White House is delivering the wrong message from last night. We don't need a ballroom sales job. We need a determination to end gun violence.
I’m sorry if this offends anyone but they experienced none of that. They’d only experience it if an active shooter was actually in the ballroom area and there weren’t armed FBI and SS agents to rely on. It’s evident by their reactions afterwards.
I was one of the first generations of kids to do a shooter drill. I'm sorry but they hardly got a taste. They had armed security, swat teams, and secret service on hand and at the ready. School children have none of that and often don't even have a competent police department to do a single thing.
Leaders and also the news media, who have failed to do their part to fully, honestly, urgently report on the epidemic. Instead we will have endless TV discussion of THEIR trauma and disingenuous editorials about political violence.
In order, being told there's an active shooter He sure looks scared and surprised.
They won't bring up Butler, either
He seems "concerned" Maybe he's been taking lessons from Susan Collins
He is nothing but a blowhard that loves to hear himself talk.
He looks like my mom with dementia when we brought her to see my dad in the hospital. She had no idea what was going on.
Good morning Brown eyes. He looks his usual dazed and dumbfounded
