The lunatic liberal had promotional materials for Chik-fil-A. Family Research Council supports traditional marriage. A security guard at the Family Research Council was wounded before the gunman was disarmed.
WASHINGTON (Reuters) - A gunman wounded a guard on Wednesday at the Family Research Council, a conservative Christian lobbying group, and he is in FBI custody, authorities said.
The male security guard was shot in the arm after confronting the suspected gunman at about 10:45 a.m. in the lobby of the group's headquarters in downtown Washington, a police spokesman said.
Guards wrestled the suspected gunman to the ground and he was taken into Federal Bureau of Investigation custody. The wounded guard was taken to a hospital, where he is in stable condition.
The Family Research Council strongly opposes same-sex marriage and abortion, and police thought the shooting "might fall under being considered a hate crime. That's why they called us in," said FBI spokeswoman Rebecca Callahan.[...]
Television station NBC4 reported that the suspect was armed with a 9mm handgun. Authorities found two loaded magazines with 15 rounds each in the suspect's backpack, as well as promotional materials for Chik-fil-A, a fast food chain.
