UPDATE: 13 killed.
Possible Terrorist attack in DC, 2 shooters... One described as bald black man dressed in all black
http://www.washingtonpost.com/local/police-search-for-active-shooter-on-grounds-of-washington-navy-yard-in-southeast-dc/2013/09/16/b1d72b9a-1ecb-11e3-b7d1-7153ad47b549_story.html
What police believe to be two shooters, including one in fatigues, killed at least four people and wounded eight others at the Washington Navy Yard on Monday, throwing the region into fear and chaos as authorities tried to contain the incident.
At least one of the shooters is “down,” police said mid-morning, but it was unclear whether that means the suspect has been arrested or shot. They said the another suspect may remain at large, and police believe they have pinned him down in a building on the installation in Southeast Washington.

LIVE UPDATES: Shooting at Washington Navy Yard
STORY: Police search for active shooters on grounds of Washington Navy Yard in Southeast D.C.
VIDEO: Witnesses: Navy Yard shooter aimed at us
(The Washington Post)
Gunfire was heard shortly before 11 a.m., and police were sweeping the building where the shooter was apparently holed up. Witnesses said the gunman was heavily armed.
At least two police officers were shot, but it was unclear whether either was among the fatalities. Police on the scene said one is a D.C. Metro Police officer who was shot twice in the leg and was evacuated on a helicopter that took off from a rooftop. The other was a base officer.
Annamarie DeCarlo, a spokeswoman for MedStar Washington Hospital Center, said the hospital has two patients from the shooting being treated in its trauma unit. She said she did not know their conditions or if they worked in law enforcement. At least one other patient was taken to the trauma unit at George Washington University Hospital, a spokesman there said.
Ten public and charter schools and a public school administration building in the District were placed on lockdown as a precaution, and flights out of Reagan National Airport were briefly halted, causing delays even after they began departing again.
The U.S. Navy said that three shots were fired around 8:20 a.m. at the Naval Sea Systems Command Headquarters building, where about 3,000 people work.
Rick Mason, a program management analyst who is a civilian with the U.S. Navy, told the Associated Press that a gunman was shooting from a fourth floor overlook in the hallway outside his office. He said the gunman was aiming at people in the building’s first floor cafeteria.
David Stevens, a Navy contractor, was on the phone talking in building 197 when he heard an initial volley of shots fired. He heard people shouting that a shooter was on the building’s fourth floor.
He said he ran to the edge of a glass atrium that overlooks all the floors and glanced up, only to hear a “second deluge” of shots. The fire alarm sounded, and people began exiting the building.
Stevens described the building as very secure. He said employees must present an ID at the entrances. Visitors must have security clearance to get in.
“It’s unbelievable that someone could get a rifle in there -- if that’s what the shooter had,” he said.
Two Navy yard employees interviewed on CNN said they were fired on in a hallway by a gunman they described as a tall black man.
A woman who gave her name as Terry Durham said that as she and co-workers were evacuating, she saw a man down the hall raise a rifle and fire toward them, hitting a wall. “He was tall. He appeared to be dark-skinned,” she said.
“He was a tall black guy,” said her co-worker, Todd Brundage, who is black. “He didn’t say a word.”
One man who said he was at his desk on the second floor when the shooting began recalled hearing a loud noise “like someone dropping an old metal desk.” The man, who declined to give his name, said there was a pause, then several noises close together and he realized the danger: “There’s a shooter in the building. I started walking toward the door and I heard people running down the hall.”
Employees described the chaos, as a fire alarm sounded and people shouted, “Where is he? Where is he?”
Police closed the 11th St Bridge as well as M St SE between 2nd and 4th streets SE due to the shooting. Entrances to the Navy Yard Metro station remain open.
U.S. Capitol Police confirmed enhanced security at the Capitol, but no immediate threat.
Tyler Elementary School at 10th and G streets in Southeast was on lockdown.
As helicopters circled overhead and emergency vehicles continued to rush to the scene, crowds of onlookers gathered on sidewalks and at a construction site near the Navy Yard, but police pushed them back, yelling at them to keep a distance from the grounds.
President Obama has been briefed on the situation at the Washington Navy Yard, according to a White House official who asked not to be identified because the situation was still fluid.
“The President has been briefed several times about the unfolding situation at the Washington Navy Yard by Assistant to the President for Homeland Security and Counterterrorism Lisa Monaco and Deputy Chief of Staff Alyssa Mastromanaco,” the official said. “The President directed his team to stay in touch with our federal partners, including the Navy and FBI, as well as the local officials. We urge citizens to listen to the authorities and follow directions from the first responders on site.”

Here is a picture of the ape. I am speculating this is a prison conversion to Islam.

I won't be suprised if the shooter or shooters were muslims.
-
Im reading that Aaron Alexis was a devout buddhist. Lol what the hell is going on in America? We have black buddhists going on shooting sprees. Still, we shouldnt rule out a recent conversion to Islam

As much as I hate to say it, I don't believe this is an Islamic terrorist attack. It appears to be an angry black man letting off some steam. Appears he had security clearance and made a premeditated attack against a highly secure naval base at which he or somebody he knew worked. The guy has a history of being hot-headed and was arrested in the past for shooting his gun in some reckless attacks.
Who knows why he did it, but the greater question is how he managed to enter a very highly secured government compound and unleash such carnage. Another fact is that this shooting would have never had happened had the employees at the facilty were not prohibited to carry guns. As people know it is illegal to carry guns in a federal building or military compound and all the victims were unconstitutionally unarmed. Considering, the innocent victims were forced by the government to be unarmed and that the security personnel failed to do their job allowing this madman access to a highly secured government building, I would say the blood is on the hand of Obama, and the government thugs who have stepped on our Constitution and forced Americans to be disarmed and helpless.

Of the late he would have converted in to muslamic, otherwise Buddhists are not supposed to kill even a sitting duck.
-
Not an Sh*tlamic terror attack, just an angry negro mooch/welfare bum that wanted to cap some whiteys.
-
I guess he's like that black police officer in California that killed other police officers last Winter. I wonder why they don't call a hate crime. If it was a white attacking only blacks, they would, even if racism was not the motive.

In this case it doesn't appear to be race related... Several of the victims of this attack appear to be black too, so he was not trying to kill only whites...

Blacks kill other blacks all the time. It doesn't matter if it wasn't a racist attack. The dominant black culture in this country produces this type of behavior. Whites usually don't go around killing people unless it's some insane guy on a rampage like in the school in Connecticut or the movie theater in Colorado. Most murder victims in this country are blacks killed by other blacks. That type of culture produces that even if they don't do it because they hate people for being white. Of course there are blacks that don't belong to that culture so I have nothing against blacks as a race.
