Police shot and <a href=\"http:\/\/www.newsmax.com\/Headline\/Gunman-Deceased-Identified-Illinois\/2017\/06\/14\/id\/796007\/\"><strong>killed the shooter<\/strong><\/a>.<\/p>\n<div id=\"dfpTV\"><\/div>\n<p>&#8220;My first reaction was relief. Thank God no one was killed. I pray for the people that were injured. That they&#8217;ll pull through,&#8221; Klayman said. &#8220;I understand Rep. Scalise was in critical condition earlier today. I hope he&#8217;s out of that by now.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>Klayman then steered the conversion to a political one.<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;This is part and parcel to the hatred that&#8217;s been whipped up against Trump,&#8221; he said. &#8220;Nancy Pelosi came out there and congratulated the Speaker of the House Paul Ryan and said great we&#8217;re all coming together, [singing] Kumbaya, but just a few weeks ago she was at a rally in California in Sacramento where the then-head of the Democratic Party in California was screaming &#8216;F\u00a0President Trump,&#8217; and she was laughing and carrying on. They have brought this kind of hatred forward and they&#8217;re largely responsible for what&#8217;s happening because this is a green light.<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;It&#8217;s giving people the means to express themselves in this violent way and it&#8217;s very, very dangerous and we can see that the country is in a civil war right now. I advocate peaceful revolution.<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;I want to bring this country back to the vision of the founding fathers. It&#8217;s far from that right now.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>___<br \/>\n<a href=\"http:\/\/www.newsmax.com\/Newsmax-Tv\/larry-klayman-baseball-shooting-civil-war\/2017\/06\/14\/id\/796103\/\">http:\/\/www.newsmax.com\/Newsmax-Tv\/larry-klayman-baseball-shooting-civil-war\/2017\/06\/14\/id\/796103\/<\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"","protected":false},"author":1,"featured_media":0,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[1],"tags":[],"class_list":["post-75349","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","hentry","category-uncategorized"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/stateofthenation2012.com\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts\/75349","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/stateofthenation2012.com\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/stateofthenation2012.com\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/stateofthenation2012.com\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/users\/1"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/stateofthenation2012.com\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fcomments&post=75349"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/stateofthenation2012.com\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts\/75349\/revisions"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/stateofthenation2012.com\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fmedia&parent=75349"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/stateofthenation2012.com\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fcategories&post=75349"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/stateofthenation2012.com\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Ftags&post=75349"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
