Gunfire shattered the tranquility of a light-hearted baseball practice outside Washington on Wednesday, wounding five people that included House Majority Whip Steve Scalise.
It's the latest in what's been a series of public shootings across the country in recent years - events that have stirred the gun debate in the U.S. in the aftermath.
U.S. Rep. Mo Brooks saw the shooting up close - too close - at the workout the day before the annual Congressional baseball game at Nationals Park. That experience, however, hasn't shaken him from his position as a staunch supporter of the Second Amendment. |

TO REMEMBER |
| Are we at last brought to such humiliating and debasing degradation, that we cannot be trusted with arms for our defense? Where is the difference between having our arms in possession and under our direction, and having them under the management of Congress? If our defense be the real object of having those arms, in whose hands can they be trusted with more propriety, or equal safety to us, as in our own hands? — Patrick Henry, 3 J. Elliot, Debates in the Several State Conventions 45, 2d ed. Philadelphia, 1836 |
