At least 16 people have been shot inside a Texas church after a gunman opened fire during the Sunday morning service.  

The shooting happened at the First Baptist Church of Sutherland Springs, where around 50 people usually attend service, according to local reports.  

Witnesses said a man 'in full gear' walked inside the church and opened fire just before 10.30am.

Neighbors in the area said they may have heard the shooter reload multiple times. 

Another witness at the scene said a two-year-old was also shot in the attack.

According to KSAT, there were at least six helicopters called in to transport victims to the hospital. 

It's unclear if anyone was fatally wounded in the attack.

Innocent people go to church on Sunday to honor their God, and while doing so, get shot in killed. What country? America. Why? Republicans.

Sometimes more information can be gleaned from their friends. The two friends who pop up show that one is in the Banditos and the other was in prison and addicted to drugs.

I always hear about who deserves to die from democrats for believing differently. They do a good job of making me despise them even more.

The profile did not have anything about his occupation. In fact, very little personal information at all except he was getting married Nov 5 (2011) and lost a baby - I can only assume he was referring to a baby he had with his girlfriend (miscarriage) and seems to refer to an indictment only he spells it "endictment." There's only a handful of public posts from the 2010-2011 timeline and they are typical of the self-indulgent banalities that you see on FB (to be kind). I'm glad I never caught the FB bug myself.

Anyway, no confirmation this is actually the guy. The FB profile is still up (the link is further back in this thread).

He and a child killer should be thrown together into a gladiator death match. Winner gets flamethrowered.

Innocent people go to church on Sunday to honor their God, and while doing so, get shot and killed because they were unable to defend themselves because guns are not allowed in church. What country? America. Why? Democrats.

Corrected.

“She is from New Orleans and more than likely raised Catholic so she might just be referring to what she knows the name of the service to be”

If she is that ignorant of such basic things, she really shouldn’t be on the air.
