<P> Hours after the shooting, Senator Bernie Sanders responded on the Senate floor to news that Hodgkinson was a campaign volunteer for his 2016 presidential run: </P> <P> "I have just been informed that the alleged shooter at the Republican baseball practice is someone who apparently volunteered on my presidential campaign . I am sickened by this despicable act . Let me be as clear as I can be, violence of any kind is unacceptable in our society and I condemn this action in the strongest possible terms . Real change can only come about through nonviolent action, and anything else runs counter to our most deeply held American values ." </P> <P> Reactions to the shooting among political activists were split . Some liberals, like Virginia Governor Terry McAuliffe, called for stricter gun control laws, while some Republicans, like Chris Collins, blamed anti-Trump rhetoric . Other activists blamed growing national polarization for causing the shooting . </P> <Table> External video <Tr> <Td_colspan="2"> 2017 Congressional Baseball Game, June 15, 2017, C - SPAN </Td> </Tr> </Table>
