The story I read, which likely the same as you did, said no such thing. It did, however, state that the licenses had not been renewed. Totally different than "losing" a license.
This is true - he didn't "renew", but that doesn't really suit the Narrative does it?
Could be that at age 66 he retired, could be he wasn't in good standing to get his license renewed.
What we do know FOR SURE is that this man actually posted that he wanted harm to not only President Trump, but also to those that voted for Trump. We also know that he came from Illinois to Alexandria to a baseball field that was likely to offer an opportunity for his goal.
Another thing that needs to happen is that Bernie Sanders needs to apologize to the Republican House caucus for the conduct of his deranged supporter. He also needs to pledge to stop inciting violence by his supporters.
No.
The deranged supporter was deranged. No one else was responsible for his actions. Sanders bears no responsibility for this morning's shootings.
I started reading that thread and not too far into it there are conflicting claims that the shooter was killed and that he was in custody, I didn't see any reason to read further.

Yeah, I keep hearing that. And on the news I keep hearing how important it is for everyone to calm down and approach this in a reasonable manner.
I don't think so.
This is time to point fingers. This is time to point fingers at the the MSM for the nonstop barrage of lies they've leveled at Donald Trump. This is time to point fingers at Democrat politicos who encourage the base with their daily tidbits of hate aimed at Trump. This is time to point fingers and acknowledge the left is out of control and today is just a manifestation of the hatred the left has for Donald Trump.
This isn't time for civility.
"The shooter was James T. Hodgkinson of Belleville, who belonged to a number of anti-Republican groups, including one called “Terminate the Republican Party.â€
As people offered prayers for the victims, a profile began to emerge of Hodgkinson, a onetime home inspector. A Facebook page believed to be Hodgkinson’s includes pictures of Democratic presidential candidate Bernie Sanders and rhetoric against President Trump including a post that reads: “Trump is a Traitor. Trump Has Destroyed Our Democracy. It’s Time to Destroy Trump & Co.”
Sounds like some of the left out here....they don't know the difference between reality & the agitprop they have been listening to in the media & the DNC. The symbolic slaughter of Trump in the NYC Central Park Shakespeare play is part & parcel of this raging, irrational hate.
Thank you. Sadly both parties have fed off the trough of people's feelings and fears to get what they want which is $$$$$$$ and reelection.
Promise this and that and whip up furor against anyone who might stop you from getting the goodies.
I think you and I have stood on opposite sides of the Trump thing but I will unite with my fellow American to bring about unity in our country.
Anyone else care to meet in the middle? It's pretty peaceful here, as long as you ignore the screaming from the sidelines. And it's where things get done.
How come CNN, MSNBC, WaPo, NYTimes, liberal talk radio (if it exists), college profs, Madonna, etc. are not being blamed for this?
Whenever anyone suspects someone from the right doing an action like this, they immediately go right to Fox News, Limbaugh, and Hannity.
We should be more focusing on those who spout the rhetoric like the left does to the right.
Part of the problem is blaming anybody or anything else for the actions of an individual. Bernie sanders or any of the liberal media didn't make this guy shoot 5 (latest figure I've heard) people. Neither did the regular calls for exterminating liberals in the Breitbart comments. He latched onto something and took it to an extreme. People do that regularly unfortunately. They do it with politics, religion, movies, books, history, and even video games (remember Columbine? it was all about how video games were "too violent"). No matter what is going on in the world, somebody will find a reason to be angry and violent because of it.
I'm a good counter - the count for the right was 2 and I responded to both with a "stop it", violence is no answer. I'm sure you can must have also responded to the Leftists to tell them to "stop".
It's actually too fluid to count. Posts are being deleted left and right this morning. Pun intended.
