Nice spin, NBC dipwads! The second 'victim' was the shooter.

‘There was just something not right about him,’ says woman who sat near church gunman

Since all of these articles are coming out at roughly the same time I’m wondering if there was an embargo on reporting detail.

All churches should have an armed QRF, cpr training, blood clot, tournaquets , comms, etc. ...and take courses such as active shooter, stop the bleed, Etc.

This could have been a massacre if in an anti gun state/church.

Also, why no ID of the murderer? Had he been an NRA/MAGA hatter, he’d be plastered over everything. Probably Antifa incel liberal loser with a nudge from the ATF/FBI).

The old saying “When seconds matter, the police are minutes away” is so true in this instance- (As good as the police are, they just can’t be everywhere to protect everyoen all the time)-
.
The whole tragic incident took just 2 seconds from the time the gunman fired the first shot to the time he himself was shot- on the video the gunman shoots at the 16 second mark- then shoots again a second later, then the guard shoots the gunman at the 18 second mark- in the matter of only 2 seconds, three people were shot (Thankfully one of the people shot was the gunman!)-

It probably seemed like an eternity to the people that had to go through it- but it was only 2 seconds, and three people were shot- Thank God that the guard was so accurate- and so quick to recognize what was happening, not freeze, and react- otherwise things could have been much worse- Just goes to show how quickly and unexpectedly, and devastatingly things can go badly- the blink of an eye practically- Thank You Lord for that guard!

[[“It just happened so fast,” she said.]]

you hear that a lot- but in this case it really did happen so fast- 2 seconds infact- between the time gunman first shot and when the gunman himself was shot- incredibly fast- fantastic reaction time and accuracy from that guard- but sadly the poor deacon didn’t make it-

Didn’t this just happen this Sunday morning? Today?
If one of my parents had just been shot to death, I would not have been in any shape to give interviews for a long time.

Of course, being the daughter of a reverend, she may be accustomed to people expecting her to say something appropriate at any given time. Some may be looking to the bereaved family for guidance even now.

Who did it?

Can there ever be a reason other than pure evil?

I’ll have a conversation with a former associate tomorrow morning. One of the first things he will reassert is the need to confiscate guns. Once more, I will say that I fear this sort of thing a lot less than I do the gooberment without an armed population.

Sad, very sad.

“He was amazing. He was a godly person and even when we talked about going to heaven he always said, 'I’m always prepared,'" she said.

God is sovereign over life and death. There are no coincidences. He knows every life taken and this was their turn to pass on.

Why does He allow it? There are reasons. Perhaps to illustrate there is truly no "safe space" in this world, only in the world that is to come. Mr. Wallace (and I suspect the other man that was shot first) were spiritually prepared for this day. For the believer, death is but a transition not an end.

His daughter seems to understand this.

Daddy no!
Daddy no!
Daddy no!

God love her...that just breaks my heart and makes my eyes well up can’t lie

Whew

We people have got to get back to where we institutionalize psychotic folks

It’s not perfect but it’s better than this so called homeless crisis and nuts killing people for no reason.

Today you cannot commit someone against their will baring them being a threat which by then it’s too late

Thankful the killing was stopped. But so sorry for the two victims and their families.

You just wonder why?

I don't wonder why. I know why. Liberalism is synonymous with sin, and sin has pervaded America. Cf Meninger's "What Ever Became of Sin?"
