Guard Shot at Holocaust Museum

By Philip Klein on 6.10.09 @ 1:53PM

A man armed with a "long gun" entered the Holocaust Museum this afternoon and fired at a security guard, and then was shot by two other security guards, according to the United States Park Police.

In a press briefing that aired on Fox News Channel, Sergeant David Schlosser of the U.S. Park Police said that both the gunman and the guard who was shot were rushed to George Washington University Hospital. The shooting occured at about 10 minutes to 1 p.m.

Schlosser said there was no evidence of another shooter in the building, but they have shut down the museum and are searching just to be sure.

UPDATE: Shooting suspect identified as white supremacist James Von Brunn, born in 1920 (so either 88 or 89 years-old).

Thank God there was an alert and brave guard on duty. I pray he heals well.

Yes yes yes!!!!! Immediately tie any shooter who is white to the mythical "white supremacists" or (as it was described on MSNBC.com) "anti-government" groups.

However, go back and re-read the accounts of the muslim who prior to shooting 2 soldiers in Little Rock went to Yemen, met with radical imams, and was being watched by the FBI. He was IMMEDIATELY cleared of any connection to "terrorist" groups. Hmmmm. Did we ever find out what was in HIS house? Wonder why?????

The conspiracy continues~~~

My thoughts & prayers go out to the guard's family, as it was just released that he passed away. I can only hope that the gunman shares his fate & hurries off to stoke the fires of hell with the rest of the murderers & Jew haters.

Gee, as a white male i had almost overcome the negative stereotypes surrounding my ethnic background ( you know, nazi, depriver of women's 'choice' etc) and now the media comes out with this insensitive coverage.

Obama's Miranda Madness

Less than an hour into the interrogation of the Christmas Day "underwear bomber," the U.S. Justice Department instructed FBI agents to advise Abdulmutallab — an al Qaeda operative from Nigeria — of his Miranda rights. Shockingly, interviews since have yielded "no actionable intelligence."

Stop plea bargaining with terrorists!
