Thank God for this man and this church. My church has a well-trained and well-armed security team made up of church members (many of whom are ex-military). Plus, no telling how many regular members carrying during any given service (this is Texas, lol).

Would-be criminals need to think long and hard about attacking a church in this day and age. It may not work out so well for them...

IF the lil Hogg had his way, there’s a good possability all these church members would have been injured and/or killed. It’s way better to do away with the lil Hogg and his filthy commie ilk instead.

“in critical condition at Stroger Hospital.”

At taxpayer expense no doubt.

ut no report mentions that he had a security guard license, or that he was paid as a security guard.

So he is a security guard, whether he had a license or got paid, he did in fact provide security.

The older man was struck in the left arm and taken to Mount Sinai Hospital in good condition. The robber was shot multiple times in the chest and was in critical condition at Stroger Hospital.

Sounds like the protector was great under pressure of fire and had trained well with his firearm. Not so with the perp.

God protects all who protect themselves.

Ah, the photo of a Chicago PD cruiser.
Did Mayor Rahm rush to the scene to comfort the church members.

The implicit bias in the article is probably purely reflexive at this point. The make a point of telling us that the church guy was a legal owner, as if we should care, but do not give us the same information about the guy who initiated multiple illegal actions.

later reports refer to him as a “security guard”, but no report mentions that he had a security guard license, or that he was paid as a security guard

You got a real blockbuster scoop there, pal. Somebody's lying! Turn over every stone to find the truth and crack this case wide open!

This is what works!

When are the schools going to take down their invitations to mass murderers?

Very well done to stand in there and get bullets on target after being shot. Wow.

He needs a bigger gun. Or the ambulance crew needs to drive more slowly.

But but wait!!

The NRA lied: A good guy with a gun couldn’t stop a bad guy with a gun

Do Armed Civilians Stop Mass Shooters? Actually, No.

Not actually reliable news sources but you hear this meme from the left over and over and over again, until one is practically forced to believe it is true. AND then a TRUE story like this one and Sutherland Springs, Texas church shooting pops up and offers clear proof that shooters are INDEED stopped by armed "good guys". Do we ever hear corrections or apologies from the left commie gun grabbers? NO and we never will.
