SUTHERLAND SPRINGS (CBSDFW.COM/AP) — The gunman who killed 26 people at a small-town Texas church went aisle to aisle looking for victims and shot crying babies at point-blank range, a couple who survived the attack said.

Rosanne Solis and Joaquin Ramirez were sitting near the entrance to the First Baptist Church on Sunday when they heard what sounded like firecrackers and realized someone was shooting at the tiny wood-frame building.

In an interview with San Antonio television station KSAT, Solis said congregants began screaming and dropped to the floor. She could see bullets flying into the carpet and fellow worshippers falling down, bloodied, after getting hit.

Thank you. I wasn’t online or watching any news when this happened. So everything I am reading now is new to me. Thanks again.

Not sick (at least, not ONLY) but evil. I hope he died a painful death.

He murdered infants and other innocent people. Is it a surprise that people would be enraged?

Its perfectly understandable. Im not enraged but terribly disappointed in humanity. People can be horrible and extremely evil.

You seriously equate wishing death on a mass-murderer of innocents with said monster’s act of mass murder? Come on.

While i certainly dont condone or support mass murder, i understand why some people do that. Calling them all sorts of adjectives helps us cope or deal in some way, it unfortunately doesnt bring back the victims that had their lives robbed of them. Either way its a terrible tragedy.

Many people have watched psychopaths grow to adulthood while mistreating others. We know that the cruelties of each of them are defended by an adult, and that some of their misdeeds are covered up along the way.
