Ft Collins, CO –-(Ammoland.com)- “The first five seconds are more important than the next five hours”
Last weeks’s shooting incident in VA:
I won’t comment on motive of the single shooting suspect (now deceased), as these facts have been reported elsewhere.

Representative Mike Bishop (R-MI), who was there, said this in a radio interview:
“The only reason any of us walked out of this thing, by the grace of God, one of the folks here had a weapon to fire back and gave us a moment to find cover.

Scalise’s bodyguards [Uniformed Capitol Police] where apparently the ones to which Mike Bishop (above) was referring.
