It’s probably not this time. It’s a small rural town.

Let's wait for more info. Someone shooting up such a tiny remote town may have a very personal grudge, or may simply be psycho. It does not seem like a very likely setting for a jihad terror statement.

SUTHERLAND SPRINGS, TX - The Wilson County News is reporting that the man who allegedly walked into a Sutherland Springs church Sunday morning and shot several people has been taken down by police.

What not? There way of letting us know that no one is safe. Also, there are more small churches in this country than mega ones that can afford security. Ours has undercover officers because it is big.

How sad for all Americans that our government deteriorated to the point where when something like this happens the prime suspect is our own governmen.

The insane are on the move. Nothing to stop them and our violent society has been pushed on from Hollywood for many years. Add the communists Democrats and the constant corruption and we have the base for hard cruel death.

Don’t know about the town but the church has videos up and it looks small and about 100% ‘Anglo’.

My God. Prayers for the victims, families, and this community. In a community with only 1,000 residents, I can’t imagine the impact this will have.
