The suspect, who is now deceased has now also been identified:
I only had seconds to look at Noah Green's Facebook page before it was deleted. He was living in Norfolk, Va.
From what I saw, many of his posts were of a religious (Islamic) nature. He appeared to be a deeply devout follower of the Nation of Islam & went by the name, "Noah X."

Now try to blame this on Trump. The only one’s to blame are the DEMOASS’S especially Biden, Piglosi, Harris and Shitmer.
Amen!!
It’s obviously Trump’s fault. Trump disrespected Muslims by supporting police. Of course a Muslim man was triggered to retaliate against the police and a Capitol half-filled with Trump supporters. Who wouldn’t be? Remember the Prime Directive: ORANGE MAN BAD!!!
What is globalist puppet $oro$ and his globalist puppet, libby snow flake sheep up to now . . . . .
OK, no one is at the Capitol today so what genius decided this was the day to attack? Just proves that only dumb people resort to violence to solve their problems.
How much you want to bet this time it will be a semi automatic gun that was used, to keep the gun confiscating laws pushing through.
I’ll bet it was also a democrat
Thats why he picked a day when there was few people there to shoot at them. All planned crap.
For sure
Yes but it does give an excuse to keep the fence around the capital.
The ultimate reward in Islam is to die as a martyr while killing infidels. A Muslim terrorist needs no more a goal than that, and the odds are irrlevant.
If it attacks like a Muslim terrorist, kills like a Muslim terrorist, and dies like a Muslim terrorist and the FBI says its not a terrorist…then you know …it’s a terrorists.
Wait til pervyJ0E tries to come for our guns….
perp shot?
officers hit by car?
officers fired shots not the perp!
Here we go again. Yet another contrived lame excuse to try to take our guns.
Every time the Deep State pulls one of these False Flag events, more people see it for what it is.
This is what happens when you steal a election Dumbocrats
Is this a Democrat pre planned attack to push their gun control agenda???? I have no faith in the people controling America at this time!!!
If I was these Dumbocrats I would not be going home for spring break I would be sleeping in my office at the capital
Another ploy for the democrats to take our guns!!
Seems oh so interesting this is happening when the libs are fighting to keep people from using our state Capitol for Easter sunrise. How convenient. This would never be even a thought if th ed proper president was in the office.
Is this all a setup just to be able to leave the fence up longer?
Pelosi at it again!!!!
Set up? In my view, more than likely
Another false flag to convince the public to built a permanent fencing around Capital Hill.
gee now they will want to ban cars
No trumps there. Piglosi is to blame with crying chuck
MY FIRST THOUGH TON THIS ———-THESE DEMS AND DIMWIT ARE PUSHING THE PEOPLE TO THE BREAKING POINT ON TAXES AND EVERYTHING ELSE THAT THEY ARE DOING, TO US ALL. YES I KNOW JUST GOT MY PROPERITY TAX AND IT HAS GONE UP ALMOST 600.00 PER YEAR. AND THIS IS IN NEW MEXICO. YES THE BLUE STATE IS GOING TO TAX US TO DEATH WHEN WE HAD NO REVENUE COMING IN LAST YEAR. SO HELP ME THE GOVERNING BODY BETTER NOT BE GETTING AN DAMN PAY RAISE. AND SURE ENOUGH WE HAVE A DEM GOVERNOR. AND SHE WAS CAUGHT SPENDING OUR MONEY ON BOOZ AND FOOD. ——- YES WHAT ABOUT A BREAK TO THE RESTAURANTS AND THE POOR PEOPLE OF OUR STATE. YES SHE PUSHED THE LOCKDOWN TO THE MAX LET ALONE NOT LETTING THE KIDS BACK IN SCHOOL SOONER. ALL BECAUSE THE TEACHERS USED THE WEIGHT BEHIND THE SCENE TO KEEP THE SCHOOLS CLOSED. WHICH IS A BUNCH OF CRAP.——- THEY WERE LAZY AT BEST
Truth be told the commiecrats pulled this shit to blame it on conservatives
I am sure that the left will try to find a way to blame this one on Trump too, every time that someone sneezes, they swear that it is all his fault and that he should be punished severely for it, yet nothing that any of them say or do, no matter how bad or wrong, is ever their own fault, they can always blame it on Trump or his supporters.
I am think Nancy Pelosi and her cronies instigated this little issue. They need an excuse to continue to keep the troops in DC!!!
It isn’t helpful to blame guns, or religion, or mental deficiencies. Or groups, or nationality or poverty or lockdown or political affiliation.
What is happening right before our eyes is a response to the completely inept leadership in government, and the hatred those leaders sow toward each other as well as the citizenry of the US.
Common people are rising up against the elect. At the moment, most people are afraid to act out their true feelings, but as life deteriorates we will see much more of what happened today.
Every time we point out how banana republic Pelosi’s fence is an unhinged leftist suddenly appears to attack. I think the left keeps a supply of crazies to trigger when their policies get too nuts for people to stomach.
Funny how constent the FBI is when it comes to killling lone Islamic terrorists. Once they are dead it is scrubbed of any connection to Islam.
