00:00:00.100 --> 00:00:09.000
They were up in the lobby, or not the lobby but the seating up one floor above the chamber, 

2
00:00:09.000 --> 00:00:17.000
and then they quickly left and they were captured in the hall and some made it to Union Station, but they disappeared. 

3
00:00:17.000 --> 00:00:23.000
There wasn't a great emphasis on rounding up the scoundrels. 

4
00:00:23.000 --> 00:00:29.700
The emphasis really was getting the injured out and providing for them, particularly from our standpoint, we were there with them. 

5
00:00:31.000 --> 00:00:37.000
But, and there wasn't the type of retribution that was expressed later on. 

6
00:00:37.000 --> 00:00:46.500
You know we knew, I had concluded in my own mind, it was a horrendous thing that they had done, but I understood the political nature of what they had done. 

7
00:00:47.000 --> 00:00:52.100
And not that it forgives them, but it puts a context of understanding. 

8
00:00:52.100 --> 00:00:58.500
You know, it was different than what's happening today with radical activity, because 

9
00:00:58.500 --> 00:01:06.700
at least they were shooting at a body that had somewhat the power to do something about what they were disturbed about. 

10
00:01:06.700 --> 00:01:17.000
It wasn't blowing up a building with 3,000 people who didn't know from nowhere, and it was just an ability to get attention. 

11
00:01:17.000 --> 00:01:20.995
It was quite different than the terrorism that we experience and see today.
