"The gunman suspected of shooting of a security guard at the conservative Family Research Council in Washington, D.C., on Wednesday shouted political statements and was carrying a Chick-fil-A fast food bag, according to reports.

The shooting occurred on the 800 block of G Street NW, inside the Christian lobbying organization’s headquarters, FRC President Tony Perkins confirmed in a statement.

The gunman shouted comments about the FRC’s positions on issues, according to reports by Fox News and the Washington Post. The shooter, identified as a 28-year-old Virginia man, was carrying a bag that had a Chick-fil-A bag inside it, according to the The Washington Post. NBC said federal sources told the network he “was carrying a backpack containing materials related to Chick-fil-A restaurants.”

He was a volunteer at the DC Center for the LGBT Community, the group’s executive director David Mariner told the AP Wednesday night. “He always struck me as a kind, gentle and unassuming young man. I’m very surprised that he could be involved in something like this,” Mariner said."...

"Even after the shooting of a security guard at the Family Research Council, the Huffington Post can’t stop slamming the pro-family organization as a “hate group.” The Huffington Post waited less than three hours before publishing an article which complained about “the Family Research Council, which the Southern Poverty Law Center deems a hate group.”"...
