Concerning the checking of Military records by employers:
Many don’t check and some don’t care. Their attitude is that the Military is a poor choice and can be overlooked as an error by a young person. The eventual employers will regret that idea many times.

The only discharge to consider is an HONORABLE discharge. All others are tainted.

Atheism doesn’t lead a person to commit mass murder. Kelley was unstable way long before he found atheism.

You don’t have to believe in God to be a good person. Some people though turn to the dark side.

Why, no one knows.

He listed “VBS Teacher’s aid” [sic] on his Linked-In employment resume. It is a rather minor credential. VBS typically only lasts a week and is mainly to let kids have fun with singing songs and reading Bible stories from picture books. A VBS helper basically just helps the teachers keep in kids in line.

Many VBS programs will invite members of the community to enroll their children in VBS for outreach. (The parents basically see it as a week of free day care.) In many churches you don’t even need to be a believer to volunteer as a helper.

I have a theory about atheists. I think they’re always trying to convert us believers because they are secretly scared that they are wrong. So, they desire to surround themselves with people who share their erroneous beliefs. If you do something wrong and then have folks around you telling you that you didn’t do the wrong thing, eventually you’ll be safe in your delusion of rightness. I know, that’s pretty condescending of me. I think atheists are scared of being wrong.

I posted the child porn thing-then later heard on Fox that he was charged with domestic violence against his wife and kid ( oh what a big strong **ssy of a man!). Sorry for posting info that was not vetted. Oh and he ended up in the brig for a year. They should have kept him!

I’ve seen a photo of this guy side by side with another photo of a guy in a black hoodie with one of those skull partial face masks/bandanas, the sort that I’ve seen AntiFa goons wearing during previous AntiFA riots. Looks an awful lot like him from the eyes up. Can’t say for a fact that it is the killer wearing the mask or bandana, but it’s out there, and there’s a strong resemblance comparing the facial features that are visible.

SSan Antonio newspaper quoted a local resident saying they were told 2 shooters in the church, not one. Could be incorrect early info, but here’s the quote and link:

“Devy Collins, 53, said she was inside the community center when law enforcement announced 22 people have been pronounced dead. She said they told everyone inside that two men dressed in black walked into the church and opened fire.”

People need to quit giving these asshole losers the out of “being crazy”, they’re EVIL. They know WTF they’re doing. Buying into the progressive mantra that they were, or all the sudden, became mentally unbalanced does nothing but reinforce the elites mantra that “by golly you can never know when this will happen apparently so nobody should own a weapon and nanny G should keep the citizens all pumped up on happy pills etc...!”

'He was always talking about how people who believe in God we're stupid...

That's what they teach in public schools. Throw some psychosis into the mix and this is what you get, and there are bound to be a few psychotics who are being prepped and primed by the curriculum when you are trying to teach the entire student body to feel contempt for Christians, say.

Not all kids will act on it because not all kids are sick, but for those who are sick enough, it's a very dangerous thing. Teaching a psychotic kid to hate is like lighting the fuse on a stick of dynamite and tossing it into a crowd.

the truth that Jesus spoke when he said, “As sin increases, so shall my grace’.

Jesus didn’t say that.

The Islamists says “There is No God but Allah”.

What the Islamist means is, "There is no god but the Moon God, and a child molester is his Prophet!"

I wonder how he felt about the Bergdahl sentence.

Maybe that's what pushed him over the edge!

In which case, the whole tragedy could be laid at the feet of the military arm of the Deep State! Obama's fault!

Maybe he had a “Gillespie” bumper sticker on his window as he chased the guy in his truck! (sarc)

From everything we have in the rough draft profile that we have on Kelley now, he was highly likely a pothead.
