Mass Shooting at Texas Church

Post by de officiis » Sun Nov 05, 2017 2:56 pm

At least 27 people killed' at a Texas church and multiple people injured - including a two-year-old child - after a gunman in full combat dress opens fire during the service

At least 27 people were shot dead by unidentified gunman and at least 24 others are being treated for injuries

Police said the gunman walked into the First Baptist Church of Sutherland Springs in Texas and opened fire

One witness told authorities that among those who were shot in the attack was a two-year-old child

First Baptist Church Pastor Frank Pomeroy said his 'beautiful and special' 14-year-old daughter is among dead

Another witness said the man, who isn't from the Sutherland Springs community, was dressed 'in full gear'
Police confirmed that the gunman is dead, but it's unclear if police took him down or if he took his own life

I wonder whether that is already legal in Texas. Someone tweeted that about half the congregation was killed or wounded.

I think as long as you have a CCW permit it is legal. I might get a CCW license specifically for this. I normally wouldnt feel the need for a firearm outside of my vehicle, since I avoid danger. But I cannot avoid mass, so I might as well.

Obviously, in the typical parish, that's like a nuclear bomb, but whatever. As long as it's legal, that's that. I know martyrs are the most honored, but I'd rather hang with the crusaders.

Honestly, I am shocked a Baptist church in Texas wasn't armed.

Several hours later, and not much info released.

You can see in the videos that it's a bunch of old white people in a small town, but nowhere in the print is that mentioned. Shooter is called nothing more than shooter.

Reformation sermons today. Might have been about that.

I'd be surprised if its a BLM....I would expect them to target suburbia....From my experience...most black and whites in rural America get along just fine...it's the cities where things are fucked up.
