Shot fired at Obama campaign field office in Denver - The Denver Post








Police say someone fired a shot at an Obama campaign field office in Denver on Friday afternoon.

No one was injured, though people were inside the offices when the incident occurred, said Denver police spokeswoman Raquel Lopez.

"It looks like it was one shot that was fired into the structure," she said.

The incident happened at about 3 p.m. at the campaign's offices on West Ninth Avenue near Acoma Street, Lopez said.

An evil despicable action. The guy that did it will receive justice.

I hope so. As much as I dislike Obama, shooting at him or any of his supporters or staff is just not the answer.

Am I the only one wondering what in the hell is going on in Colorado?
 
Re: Shot Fired Into Obama Denver Headquarters

How ****ed up. I hope they catch the asshole who did it. Thankfully there were no injuries.
 
Re: Shot Fired Into Obama Denver Headquarters

As weird as it sounds coming from me, this looks staged. And by staged, I mean that my spider senses are tingling and I think this was done by an Obama supporter. What is there to gain from firing a single shot into an Obama office? Either the guy was too chicken **** to keep shooting or the point was to create controversy. It looks like the only goal of this shooter was to get on the news. As such, I'm starting to lean towards the possibility that this was done by somebody hoping to make the Romney campaign look bad.

Staged like the girl who claimed Obama supporters carved an "O" into her face when she was canvasing for McCain? Why the hell do people do stuff like that?
 
Re: Shot Fired Into Obama Denver Headquarters

You got a bunch of crazies.

Fixed it for you. For all we know, this could have been a high powered bb gun/air rifle. Or hell, it could have just been a well thrown ball bearing.

I'll assume that the authorities have a good reason to claim it was a gun though. Until otherwise shown differently.

I'm going to assume a bullet unless otherwise stated.

In the case of the McCain campaign worker who claimed a black man noticed her McCain bumper sticker and scratched a "B" for Barack on her face with his knife has to be one of the dumbest acts ever.

The "B" was backwards on her face as she did it with a mirror.


I put her moronic act up there with the 62 yr old Alabama football fan who poisoned rival Auburn's celebration tree. Then had the stupidity to go on a radio talk show and brag about it. Sixty two years old and going out to poison a college's famous tree. Good grief.


Politics has quickly become like a sport where the two opposing fan base taunt each other. And occassionally one of the aspiring moron fans goes way off the deep end.


This shot into the window of the campaign office has a smell to it too.
 
Re: Shot Fired Into Obama Denver Headquarters

Obama's campaign offices were vandalized in 2008. I smell rednecks/drunks/teenagers not some elaborate conspiracy by a Obama supporters to evoke sympathy.
 
Re: Shot Fired Into Obama Denver Headquarters

How is shooting out a window going to solve anything and why do some people even think guns are an answer to thier disagreements.?

Just do not understand that kind of thinking.

Entirely possible. There are crazies on both sides. But whether it was a crazie Romney supporter trying to "show those pinkos a lesson" or a crazy Obama supporter trying to paint the other side as gun toting wackos, let's not blame the actions of one on an entire campaign.

Sam Levin, a reporter for the alternative newspaper Westword, later posted a photo on Twitter showing one of the office's large front windows broken out. By early evening, the window shards had been removed and a glass company was putting up plywood.

I am glad nobody was hurt, but people need to control their emotions.

I don't know, we'll have to see about that.
 
Re: Shot Fired Into Obama Denver Headquarters

Sounds like someone is trying to get Obama's attention. The only thing to be accomplished by sending a single shot through a window is to scare people, but one does not simply scare the most powerful man in the world with a trivial terrorist act. I'm guessing the shooter is just another idiot.
 
Re: Shot Fired Into Obama Denver Headquarters

I don't know what they thought they'd accomplish. It's not like Obama was there for one thing. Even if he was, do you know what happens if he dies at this point? Do the words "President Biden" mean anything to you?

Embrace Chaos. It is inevitable.

I don't believe this was an assassination attempt. It's a stupid scare tactic that smacks of 1950's KKK, but I guess they forgot that the President of the United States is not just another "nigger" to be intimidated, and ran out of town. Whoever the shooter is, he's in for a world of hurt.

That is pretty scary.
