NASHVILLE, Tenn. Authorities in Tennessee say at least six people were injured in a shooting at a church in the Nashville area.
Nashville fire department spokesman Joseph Pleasant tells the Tennessean newspaper that at least six to eight people were hurt and were being transported to Vanderbilt Medical Center. The nature of the injuries weren't immediately known.
A dispatcher quoted by the newspaper said that the scene was still "active" at the Burnette Chapel Church of Christ as of 11:40 a.m. Sunday.

Body building...
Should have worked on
his mind and Soul.
Unless..some idiot makes it a race issue...Libs are always out to make it so...or else some other ungrateful group.
I see the Mayor etc. are all in the standard how to keep calm in the community mode.
Yes....
He’ll be talking so we’ll know soon enough why he says he did this.....frankly he’s simply a murderer....he’s killed a woman and attempted to kill 6 others in a room full of 50 people.
The fact he wore a ski mask in the parking lot before killing the gal there and entering the building ...does evidence he knew what he was doing.

FBI might possibly investigate for Civil Rights violations. Victims all white???
Cops are hailing a 22 year old kid as a HERO for confronting the suspect and egaging him in a physical confrontation whereby the shooter shot himself, possibly by his own hand or by the hand of the hero.
Just stay away from Nashville and Memphis.
Oh no. Seems like he was aiming at the important people. Prayers up for full hearings for all wounded.
He is from the Sudan and the Sudan is Muslim. So, sudden jihad syndrome?
If you can afford it, move to Williamson County, just south of Nashville. Property is high there, but the schools are excellent. Crime is much lower than Nashville, too.
From some of his posts, he was also a bodybuilder. They tend to be extremely narcissistic about themselves. That would partially explain the “Become the creator” post.
Good luck with your hunt. For a big city Nashville isn’t bad and it’s pretty conservative. My parents lived there for a while when my brother was in college there. I’m just a small town girl. The main thing is to stay away from Memphis. Memphis is the only place in Tennessee that I have ever felt unsafe. Also, Nashville has one of the best hospitals in the country with Vanderbilt.
Brave young man. He had the fearlessness of God in him.
Just saw a report that he’s a Sudanese immigrant.
Yes..his photo is all over this thread...
I believe that as well...God uses the willing....and he can make giants out of them in the moment! This young an will forever be changed after this heroic move.....
He went to Smyrna High School less than 10 miles away and probably knew the area. This little church is off the beaten path and he probably chose it because it was secluded. Also, it is in the very southeast part of the county where police response time would be slower.
Word is that he went to the congregation a few times a couple of years ago. Don’t know exactly how that plays into the story.
As per NBC, he is from the Sudan.
It’s on his FB page, too.
Definitely looking there. Thanks.
I just don’t see buying property here in CA when really ANYTHING could happen here to overturn the rights of property owners in favor of the Welcome Illegals and Refugees etc. And the whole water thing.
