"It is a stray bullet as part of random gunfire,'' Lepley said. Police said they have no suspects. Cantor's office declined comment.

I'm also against news media making shit up.

Or drawing unsupported conclusions.

I doubt we'd be making up idiotic fairy tales about "gunmen shooting up her office."

But kudos for taking the "they  did it first" gambit to an entirely new level - "they might have done it too."

Perhaps you missed where the Police have made an arrest...

I would have thought you would be able to read your own link and recognize these are two separate incidents.

Just saying every news agency was at Cantors press conference while he was saying people should not use these events for political gain then his my life was threatened speech began
