"The suspect "made statements regarding their policies, and then opened fire with a gun striking a security guard," a source told Fox News. WJLA-TV7 reported the suspect was also shot.

Sources also said the gunman may have been carrying a bag from Chick-fil-A, the embattled fast-food restaurant whose president came under fire from gay activists after he said he did not agree with same-sex marriage.

Sources told Fox News that after guard took away his gun, the suspect said, "Don't shoot me, it was not about you, it was what this place stands for."

Authorities were treating the attack as a case of domestic terrorism, although James McJunkin, the head of the FBI’s Washington Field Office, said authorities do not yet know the gunman's motive."

I'd like to know more about this young man. Is he a registered voter? What are his politics? Does he lean Occupy Wall Street or Tea Party? Was it George Bush or Michelle Bachmann who supplied the firearm?

Maybe he thought the guard was going to swipe his chicken.

I had to go read the article just so I could figure out what that meant.

FRC is a Christian organization, and the young man is (supposedly) an LGBT activist.

Marriage is none of the governments business. Marriage is a concept created by a religion, so you know what a freaking mess. The Gov't should be out of the marriage business already. (I realize then certain people would cry out and ask the gov't to force churches to recognize their marriages I get it. I also realize when you're married it effects you're govt theft taxes and if you can visit them at the hospital and all that those are minuscule problems that can be addressed. )

I support all "Liberty" but as stated the gov't has nothing to do with all that and this is just nutso stuff shooting an innocent guard at a building wont make people suddenly like you're cause or defend you or defend anyone... What a bunch of hateful wackos. Going around banning chicken and shooting people, spray painting chik-fil-a's. What a bunch of rebels with out a cause.

The government isn't really in the "marriage" business as much as it's in the divorce business. Unfortunately, the vast majority of those problems (child rearing and support, division of real and personal property, etc.) are far from "minuscule" and having nothing to do with whether or not a church may or may not have recognized the "marriage."

The violence from the left in November will make this look like a picnic.

Well you got me, I'd have to agree with you there.

...James McJunkin, the head of the FBI’s Washington Field Office, said authorities do not yet know the gunman's motive.

I know I'm not supposed to, but come on - how can you not giggle when you see that name? It's like FBI agents get to create their own aliases, and this guy got in when he was 12.

Now back to your regularly-scheduled political mutterings...

Would this line be there had he eaten Wendy's instead?
