COLORADO SPRINGS, Colo. — At least four people were shot outside of a Colorado Springs church on Sunday, but it was not immediately known whether the shootings were related to an earlier shooting about 70 miles away, authorities said.

She fired 12 rounds, and 3 penetrated his body armor. That was in the same AP article as the report of Murray killing himself...

Don’t forget that it would also discredit her testimony/witness of asking G-d to be with her... Our MSM doesn’t like stories like that... And, you can tell that they were looking for an “out” on that matter even yesterday when one reporter directly asked her if she was lying...

I'm presuming that the shooter had two guns. A handgun from the previous night's murder, and the long gun from the second shooting where he was stopped.

He could have jammed one gun and then dispatched himself with the other after being mortally wounded by our heroine.

Yep... Someone else posted that her training would’ve been to empty the clip as well... I’m not that educated in these matters, but I wasn’t really questioning her. I also didn’t know that he had on the body armor. As it is only 3 of her 12 shots penetrated his body armor, so I’m definitely not questioning her emptying her clip now... It makes sense when dealing with someone intent on killing as many people as possible — especially if he was wearing body armor!

Agreed! That’s what I was saying earlier... There is no doubt that she turned the tide in this one. Even if he did kill himself it was not before he understood that his “plan” was at an end...

That’s what I was thinking... There was one reported account from Bourbonnais that mentioned them turning a corner and seeing him slide down and that he had started bleeding... I’d have to go back through to find the exact post. It could’ve been that he “retreated” around a corner after getting hit, and shot himself in the seconds before they turned the “corner” or something...

We all need to be extra cautious tomorrow night.

He often added a sig to his posts as “Mr. Crowley” - I assume he meant Alistair Crowley, the head satan worshipper.

That would make sense then... As the handgun was jammed. Also, I just posted to you about them turning the corner. It could’ve have been within the few seconds he was out of their line of sight as you mentioned. Thus, why no-one saw him shoot himself... They could’ve assumed that her shots were the ones that did him in at that point (although a shotgun blast at close range would cause WAY more damage than a handgun). Perhaps the full-view of the damage was in his back though and seeing as it was a while before they moved the body perhaps it wasn’t apparent to Bourbonnais and Assam that he had shot himself.

Obviously, the ammo found inside Murray’s body matched ammo found inside the Arvada victims and/or the New Life victims.

See that’s the thing... A close-range blast from a shotgun would cause way more physical damage than a handgun. One would think that a vet and an ex-police officer could immediately tell the difference between a handgun wound, and a shotgun blast. But, perhaps — depending on where he shot himself — the majority of the damage wasn’t visible from the “front”. And, if they didn’t move the body at all I could understand where they could’ve assumed that her bullets were what killed him.

LOL... I thought that’s perhaps what you were referring to! :) And, you’re right.. We all need to be very alert in the coming weeks. There are always copycats out there... And, I pray to the L-rd that this is not true, but this could be the “start” of something worse... We (Christians) know it’s coming... SOMEDAY...

A few things to keep in mind here:

I noticed they didn’t put on that list his post on Sunday morning, that came between his two rampages.

It hardly matters now. With the Omaha mall shooting and this psychotic church killer taken down within a few days of each other, it will all be swept under the national rug.

Here's why:

Doesn't fit the liberal agenda to have a CCW holder stop a crime. Conservatives not wanting scrutiny for various gun rights votes they may have cast. Both sides don't want to be questioned on the hypocrisy of calling attention to the tragedy of a handful of introverted white kids from flyover country who paint their fingernails black and wear trench coats when zillions of black kids are murdering each other every year in America. Under no circumstances can the media address the chemical experimentation on millions of Americans by the big pharmaceutical industry because they're paying print and TV broadcasters millions upon millions of dollars to peddle their new anti-smoking drug that causes violent reactions to horrifying nightmares and sleep aids that cause you to sleep-walk into your car and drive it the wrong way down the freeway. Why, if we talk about why so many young people are on ADHD medication, we might actually have to look at our nation's public schooling.

Therefore, silent agreement on behalf of numerous parties to clam up about it.

Give it another week and we'll all be back to sitcoms and 'Dancing With The Stars' and all the other bread-and-circus pop culture nitwitism that distracts our attention.

See my post at #2,279.

No-one will even care in a few more days.
