Photos on the church’s facebook page show Christians of all colors. It’s called fellowship in Christ.

That’s fine - I’m posting the same comment on all three threads to dispel the racial speculation. Photos on the site show parishioners of all races.

I appreciate that. We need to get it right even if the press often does not.

There are those among us in the US who want badly to divide us.

Church = "target of opportunity" for Muslims, Antifa, and the left.

This is the reason why parishioners I know have gotten their concealed carry permits and ALWAYS attend church armed with "one in the pipe".

I understand. There are a number of people that I know locally who concealed carry. Suspect some in our church. I know one who does up the street at the local Church of Christ.

At this point I don’t want to speculate on motive.

“One woman was shot in the parking lot after she exited the building.”

“Police said the gunman, who was wearing a ski mask, entered the church through the back door.”

“Police said one church member confronted the gunman and was pistol-whipped.

This man, who has a handgun carry permit, went to his car and retrieved his gun.

When he entered the church and confronted the gunman with the gun, the gunman shot himself.”

If it is an infidel who did the shooting, we would have his name, religion and social security number by now.

Yes, at times what is not said by the media is a strong indication of what really happened.

At times the media’s motive is so strong, they simply lie.

It is reported the gunman was a 26 year old black male who entered through a back door and was wearing a neoprene ski mask.
