Who knows?
Even weirder, the gunman was reported to be 80 years old.

Worse, there's going to be an asinine push for MORE stupid security tricks in DC now. Because it works so well from stopping a determined individual.

and just to make things more fun
Due to an earlier shooting incident at the Holocaust Museum today, and the ongoing investigation, there are significant street closures that will impact the afternoon rush hour. Authorities advise that the area around 14th Street and Independence will be impacted by this incident. It is recommended that you monitor local radio stations for updates and plan your commute accordingly.

I was just reading the updates: apparently, only the gunman and a guard were shot: another person was injured by flying glass. Still no word on WTF prompted this.

It's worse - Ofr. Johns died.
I can't make a post about this - I am too upset.
And it is PuppyBoy's birthday - I just can't do it.

But it was prompted by the murderer's bigotry.
He was an lifelong antisemite, and wanted to
"go out in a blze of glory" at a bigotedly
significant age: "88" sounds like "seig heil",
FWIU.
