And in virtually every Tweet quoted on HuffPost, the Tweeter is "praying" for his recovery. I know that American voters are generally horrified of a politician who isn't Christian, but ffs.

I wonder how far these charges will go? I bet there is some plea bargaining.

There are possibly people out there who don't know what someone shooting someone else looks like?????

Get used to it, there will be another one next week two more the week after, and so on, and this will probably be the only one without a pile of dead bodies, If only because "arse #1" wasn't a proficient shooter and his victims were accompanied by police guards willing to put their lives in jeopardy to protect them.

If only. .... There was another later in the day, in San Francisco, where a worker almost literally "went postal" (he was a UPS employee), shooting five people, killing three, then killing himself.
