Did the Accused Family Research Council Shooter Target a Second Christian Group Too?

Local and federal investigators work to gather evidence after a security guard was shot in the arm at the headquarters of the Family Research Council Aug. 15, 2012 in Washington, D.C. The head of a second conservative Christian organization said Friday the accused shooter had a note with her group's contact information and may have targeted them, too. (Getty Images)
WASHINGTON (AP) — The head of a second Christian conservative organization said Friday she was told by authorities that a note containing her group’s contact information was found in the pocket of a man charged with opening fire at the Washington offices of another such group, wounding a security guard.
Traditional Values Coalition President Andrea Lafferty said FBI agents visited her group’s Capitol Hill offices hours after the Wednesday morning shooting as part of their investigation. The next day, she said, members of the Joint Terrorism Task Force came by and confirmed that “our information was in his pocket,” including the location of the group’s offices.
“I was stunned,” Lafferty told The Associated Press, adding that she believes her group may have been targeted.
It wasn’t immediately clear if that was the case.
An FBI representative could not be immediately reached for comment late Friday.
The accused shooter, Floyd Lee Corkins II, of Herndon, Va., was ordered held without bond Thursday on accusations he opened fire in the lobby of the Family Research Council in downtown Washington.
Corkins, whose parents said he strongly supported gay rights, had a backpack full of Chick-fil-A sandwiches and a box of ammunition when he said words to the effect of “I don’t like your politics” and shot a security guard, authorities said.
The guard was shot in the left arm but nonetheless managed to help take down the gunman, preventing what the police said could have been a deadly attack.
It wasn’t immediately clear why Corkins, 28, had the chicken sandwiches.
Like the FRC, the Traditional Values Coalition has supported the president of Chick-Fil-A and his staunch opposition to same-sex marriage.
Tony Perkins, who heads the Family Research Council, hinted Thursday at a news conference that the FRC was not the only group targeted, although he did not elaborate.
“Maybe, going forward, you may find out more information that we may not have been the only one,” he said.
While blaming Corkins for the shooting, Perkins also faulted the Southern Poverty Law Center, an Alabama-based civil rights organization that tracks and litigates against hate groups. On its website, the law center labels both Washington conservative organizations as “active anti-gay groups.”
Lafferty also was critical of the law center. “We have been on their hit list longer than any other group,” she said.
Mark Potok, a senior fellow at the SPLC, had called Perkins’ accusation “outrageous.” He said the council earned the designation for spreading false propaganda about the gay community, not for its opposition to same-sex marriage.
Lafferty said she has written Attorney General Eric Holder seeking protection for her group, but that authorities have not been responsive.
“Under this Justice Department, Christians are a very low priority on their lists of concerns,” she said
Corkins had recently been volunteering at a D.C. community center for lesbian, gay, bisexual and transgender people. He lived with his parents in northern Virginia.
Prosecutors requested a mental health evaluation, and Corkins’ public defender did not address the allegations in court.
Corkins faces charges of assault with intent to kill and bringing firearms across state. The judge ordered him held pending a hearing next week.

Posted on August 18, 2012 at 1:17pmWell, let’s see: Guy shoots a guard at the Family Research Council as he headed in with 15 chicken sandwiches. Guard has a gun, so shooter gets no further; if he got inside to distribute his sandwiches, all hell could have broken loose. Guy was LGBT volunteer and told guard he didn’t like the political orientation of the FRC. Strange how the LSM find nothing to see here: No political motive whatsoever; appropriate target if there was one; move along, nothing to see here. What was once the major media are now the progressive media; part of the problem. Turn to FOX for a half-decent shot at the news (only half; fair and balanced, you know.)

Why do I know this, because the day after Appreciation day I was confronted by a Liberal dork – she told me that the CEO of Chick-fil-a gave to hate groups. I asked her to name me just one of the Hate Org. She could not do it.
Then on the way home, I hear the CFO for Avante go weird on an attendant at Chick-fil-a. He too repeated the same talking points of the Liberal Media that day – CFL gives money to “Hate Groups”
Now this young , filled with hate useful idiot will spend the rest of his life knowing that the Liberal Media lied to him about this so called Hate Organization – shame on the Liberal Media.

Posted on August 19, 2012 at 12:46pmI have a gay friend at work and he showed me an anti-CFA meme and I had to carefully *eggshell walking is a talent of mine* ask him if he saw any hate coming from me. He said no. I asked him were was the hate in Cathy’s statement. He couldn’t tell me but he came back with how Cathy supports hate groups. I asked him to tell me how any of those groups were hate groups. He told me that they make it harder for him to get married. Because one day he wants to get married in a church because all of his family were married in a church and now he’s an outsider because of a book that was written a thousand years ago. I stopped the conversation, went in and prayed for him as I do now. As far as I’m concerned the whole movement is contradictory to its goals and I am angry at the people behind it that think by criminalizing one point of view they can justify another point of view. And meanwhile they’re using my friends by ******** promises of freedoms and rights in exchange for never ever being able to go back and change their lifestyle. By attacking Chick-fil-A and the groups they support go further than just hating Christians. They hate their own that turn straight because while the argument is “born that way” and mine is “choice,” they try to make sure that it’s instilled that being gay is permanent and there is no going back. Well honey, I did, so when you attack CfA or any of the groups they supported, well, you don’t know any better.

Posted on August 20, 2012 at 12:41amI hope the FBI checked the 15 Chick-Fil-A sandwiches to see if they had been poisoned!!! He was posing as a delivery man (sounds like plan “A” was make them choke on Chick-Fil-A sandwiches but the guard was having none of it and duffus had to switch to plan “B” start shooting).
I think the FBI dropped the ball by throwing away the sandwiches before anyone could check them for poison… everything is going to hell under Obama, it would seem.

The Black Panthers & Nation of Islam says this all the time. They never get arrested. I see a double standard here. When you allow one group to foam at the moth & get other fearful & do nothing (as the government), you can expect others to get agitated.
Of course that is a cynical strategy too. Do nothing about one group threatening violence against another group. Do nothing & wait long enough when the latter group gets agitated& them clamp down on them.

Yes, because Christians never cite Christianity as their reason for opposing abortion or gay marriage. In this context, it seems rather funny that so many of you are dedicated to bringing religion into government–to breaking down exactly that separation of religious and political/legal issues that prevents the U.S. from becoming a theocracy like the Islamist countries you hate.

You’re assertions there make no sense, and merely reflect the most unsubstantiated claims that inevitably circulate on right wing talk radio. Loughner cannot be consistently pinned to either side of the spectrum, there is no evidence that the V-Tech and Amish school killers were leftists–what motives have been found for them have nothing to do with the political left. And then there is this gem:
Report Post »“The Sikh temple shooter = not a conservative, so Nazi = wacky lefty.”
Sorry friend, but that’s not how logic works. That doesn’t follow, and if it did, the Nazi’s were not lefties. The very definition of “right wing” politics is the belief in political hierarchy, and the denial of equality, and those are two of the most prominent facets of Nazism and the broader doctrine of fascism.
So, basically it seems your qualification for being a “lefty” is to not be proven a tea party conservative (regardless of whether your motives are political or not). The logical behind this is so obviously flawed that I don’t have much to say here. Please, stop merely repeating this talk radio drivel.

Would it be all over the news if a Christian group “targeted” the above group and marched in there with a gun! Would Holder respond immediately!! Who are the violent ones? The Progressives have the mentality of little children. If I don‘t get what I want and you disagree with me I’m going to get even. It really must be a mental disorder to be a Progressive.

Posted on August 18, 2012 at 10:26amIt is a person with a mental illness that thinks that only if you believe in their point of view and none other, that it is a hate group. How come they can have their opinion but nobody else think differently? We have a family member like that and they have been mentally ill their whole life. They never take responsibility for the awful things she does either. She is completely alone and now she is old, she is all alone, cut off from the rest of the family in a retirement apartment where nobody goes and sees her because as you grow older with this mental disease of “liberal progressivism” (narcisstic personality disorder” and you never repent or change, you also die completely alone and nobody has to listen to their crap anymore. A person like Individulaism most probably lives a life of fornication and dishonesty and has all kinds of “unfair” life altercations. They are simply reaping what they sow but don’t have the wisdom or common sense to break free of their twisted warped views that evil is good and good is evil.

Posted on August 18, 2012 at 9:59amNBPP is labeled as right wing ? Is this the way the Left gets a pass on their OWS/ Black Bloc/ anarchists ? By labeling all wacko groups as “ right ” wing ? They need to start labeling “ extremist ” groups which all of these nut jobs are. Right or Left doesn’t matter. Bullying, intimidating and violent language should be the issue. It isn’t a matter of ” direction.” It is a matter of hate and violence. The Lefties are tricksters: they redefine words to serve their agenda . Marriage. Transparent. Forward. All redefined to serve their agenda of ” change.”

They use those numbers to tell the public and the MSM that the number of right wing hate groups are growing. They also lump in various peaceful Christian organizations who refuse to go along with the left’s ideals.

So what exactly does it take to be qualified as “evil” in your book? Basically anything you disagree with? The word “evil” is quite strong, and when you use it to describe anyone who annoys you, you really make a fool out of yourself.

Alright, that’s fair, although it seems strange that the NBPP is never actually mentioned as a right-wing organization.
But OK–what then is your objection to this organization being seen as “Right Wing”? It is a Nationalist-Separatist organization specifically opposed to the liberal civil rights agenda. How exactly would this make it more “left wing” than “right wing”?
