Devin P. Kelley, who was court martialed from the U.S. Air Force, was identified as the gunman who walked into the First Baptist Church in Sutherland Springs, Texas, on Sunday morning and murdered at least 26 people, wounding many more in the tiny, rural community near San Antonio...

.....His LinkedIn page also says, “I am a hard working dedicated person. I live by the core values on which the Air Force go by.”

However, CBS News reported that the suspect is former “US Air Force E1 (2010-2014) He received a dishonorable discharge He was court martialed in May 2014.”....

UPDATE

La Times, Wash Post, and CBS now say Kelley had a bad conduct discharge, not a dishonorable discharge.

Man identified as Texas shooter was court-martialed for assault on his spouse and child

The man authorities have identified as the shooter in the massacre at a Texas church was given a bad conduct discharge from the Air Force three years ago after being court-martialed for assault, a military spokesperson confirmed Sunday.

Federal law prohibits a person who has been dishonorably discharged from buying a firearm. Whether Kelley's discharge would trigger the law was not immediately clear......."

So the gun control law failed.

As did the murder control law.

As does every law, because no law eliminates the behavior it outlaws.

So don’t propose more laws as if they are a solution to anything, because they ain’t.

Yep.

Now the question is, how did he get ahold of those weapons?

Don’t jihadis shave their beards sometimes right before an act of terror?
Not the recent one in NYC though.

When Mark Zuckerberg immediately deletes the Facebook account of a murder suspect, isn’t that obstruction of justice? This guy always does this.

Given the suspect’s background, the Left’s going to have a field day with this.

After the Las Vegas event went down the rat hole, I wonder if the cops in Texas will come up with a motive and go public with it.

I would assume,no,because access will be given to law enforcement.

Leaving it up could get very nasty.

I’m reading that he was deeply into Antifa.
He may have been triggered by the Nov. 4th date. That was when Antifa was supposed to begin their big war to drive Trump from the White House. The few anarchist activities I saw were a little underwhelming.

Dishonorable discharge makes him a good guy to the liberals.

As for why his time teaching “Bible” to children was brief, it sounds like he did a bad job of it.

I dunno. Are we certain this is even him? There have been a lot of fake photos and other names and info attributed to this guy...he a convert, no, he’s antifa, no, he’s just a right-wing nut...everyone’s got their bias.

I’m also a little confused why they let his name leak but wont identify him publicly.

Pretty disturbing to watch people leap to conclusions based on political agendas.

Meanwhile, at least 26 people in a small town were slaughtered while in church.

The Bureau of Fake Book Information goes to work to squirrel that info away for themselves.
