Hearing shooter killed himself.....two others also dead and 10 wounded.



Side note....CNN reporting and Don Lemon and Sunny Hostin already invoking gun control and Obama.....oh look, Van Jones now on to talk about gun control some more while old Obama statement plays.....hacks.

yeah, churches of any race are considered a bit more 'sacred' than movie theaters

Um...officially 2 dead....which you would know if you actually read the whole thread... but even though the shooter is white, it is believed the victims are also so theres nothing for YOU to see here so move along now.

yeah, all life is sacred

, yet nobody cries when a cop shoots a 'criminal'? right,, and they are a human life?


in an ideal world, all life would be EQUALLY Valuable, but some times life ending makes more 'sense' than others

it doesnt make as much 'sense' to us for someone to shoot a child,, for instance, than for them to shoot someone breaking in their home

likewise, it doesnt make as much 'sense' for someone to go into a place of peace like a church and shoot it up,, as it does for them to go to a place of entertainment and (usually) vulgarity and start shooting

we expect certain situations in some places much less than in others

sad that its come to that, but thats just facing the REALITY of why some things seem more shocking than others,,

Don't take it so seriously. We can all comment or not on any topic of interest that we want to. Everyone will not always agree with each other but that's ok.

Condolences to the families of those killed.

Thoughts and prayers for those injured, that they may have speedy recoveries.


It's a shame, the shooter was such a p�ssy, as to attack innocents, then kill himself.

Angola would have been a suitable home for him.

From FoxNews.com: Police Chief Jim Craft told a news conference that authorities had identified the gunman as a 58-year-old white man, but did not release his name, citing an ongoing background check. The chief added that the conditions of the injured victims ranged from critical to non-life-threatening.

its the standard when people stop trying to report 'first', and start trying to report 'accurately'
