"Fanning The Flames": Shot Fired At GOP Rep. Cantor's VA Office

Rep. Eric Cantor (R-VA) announces a bullet was fired at his Virginia campaign office.

Cantor: "I want to stress this, and it’s very important. Legitimate threats should be treated as security issues. And they should be dealt with by the appropriate law enforcement officials. It is reckless to use these incidents as media vehicles for political gain. That is why I have deep concerns that some, DCCC Chairman Chris Van Hollen and DNC Chairman Tim Kaine in particular, are dangerously fanning the flames by suggesting that these incidents be used as a political weapon."
