Rep Steve Scalise Returns

ms traditional — Thu, 28 Sep 2017 14:18:14 GMT

after that horrific shooting in DC at the baseball practice, and months of surgeries, and rehab, Rep Steve Scalise is returning to the House of Representatives. i admire his grit - and wish him well. i am sure his family is all smiles.

@ms traditional Thanks for the update. I was recently thinking about his fate and happy to hear he is on the mend!

I saw video this morning of him walking with crutches, he's made wonderful progress, and he wants us to know he is not hospitalized, as one person has been claiming.

It's Thad Cochran, a senator, that that person was referring to. He's also denied being hospitalized -- lol.

It is beyond distressing that some think they can express their unhappiness with a gun. I do not agree with Mr Scalese on just about every issue but these monsters who express themselves with violence are a great threat to our democracy. I wish him well in his recovery and naively wish we could be more humane in expressing our views. If this post is zapped, that's all the more reason to be distressed.

I loved seeing him get that warm reception after what he's been through. I saw that the officers who protected him at the scene got recognized the other day-- I think it was for "Capitol Police Officers of the Year" or some such other honor.

Good news for the day!

Those officers deserve the honor. If not for them I don't even want to think of how bad it would have been. Good news indeed!

that was a nice return - it was interesting to hear of the well wishes of world leaders and great to hear tributes to the Capitol police and the medical team who obviously have done an inspired and outstanding job. we all read the odds against him being on his feet again due to the seriousness and location of his injuries. hallelu! so glad to have something to smile about.

He gave them the honor so deserved. He called them "his hero". What a moving welcome back for Rep. Scalise and his strong, loving wife.

@Hoovermom I agree. I meant they deserved the honor or Capitol Police of the Year that Oznell mentioned. I didn't mean Scalise did not deserve the warm outpouring he got. Sorry if my comment was taken wrong. I thought it was a beautiful speech and it was heartwarming to see him doing so well.
