BREAKING: Possible incident at Comet Ping pong DC (pizzagate)

submitted ago by Skanda

A man just walked into the Comet restaurant with an assault rifle. No shots fired but everyone ran out. I'm next-door at the red fox coffeeshop. 10+ police cars are already here.

EDIT: a man just exited with his hands on his head. He was handcuffed and put in a squad car. Still holed up in the red fox.

As posted on Reddit's Washington DC subreddit

UPDATE

“u/d COMET PINGPONG, 5037 Ct Av NW-DC. A man has surrendered to PD. SWAT-ERT and bomb techs will sweep Comet and man’s car parked outside.”

UPDATE 2: CONFIRMED

The good thing with that kind of braindead statement is that anyone educated will see that this is a baseless generalisation and smell a cover up. I start to wonder if that's not journalists way of signalling to everyone that they are under a gag order.

It's not just people like us looking into this shit now... I mean, you know there has to be AT LEAST ONE powerful person that has seen this and believes it, and hopefully wont let it be buried. Can't we assume there are multiple peope like this?

If they haven't been blackmailed yet...

Dude. Not everyone has blackmail that can be used against them.... Right? Or at least not damaging enough to prevent them from doing anything.

I mean. being gay is the black mail used against some people, right? What a good time this would be to come out, as a gay man who helped bring down the D.C pedo ring? That'd do good with common man republican who still has mixed feelings about the gays..

one can hope.

We can only hope, yes. This stuff has been going on all the way back to Reagan/Bush Sr.
