3. Can I be the first to deny those shots ever occurred?

I bet its a plot to repartition the Smithsonian art museum and give half to Israeli Studies.

At least two people were shot Wednesday at the U.S. Holocaust Memorial Museum in Washington, authorities said.

D.C. police spokeswoman Traci Hughes said a person walked into the museum at about 1 p.m. with a rifle and shot a guard. Hughes says the shooter was also shot.

Hughes said the conditions of those shot were not known. Both were being rushed to a hospital.

U.S. Park Police gave slightly different information, saying three people had been shot. Fire department spokesman Alan Etter told CNN a third person was hurt after being cut by broken glass.

Shooter was 89 year old James Von Brunn and he apparently has ties to white supremicist groups.
