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.

Wow... the article on MSN that I read before coming here mentioned nothing of the sort — more than one shooter, or “bombs”... Definitely not a “random” act if that’s the case.

That church is actually an above average church.

Your notion of scamming people for money is wholesale out of place, exceedingly biased and grossly unkind.

It appears that you are writing totally out of your personal angry beliefs about such things without a shred of evidence or factual info to go on. I consider that outrageously worse than whatever accusations you lobby.

Because he did not know ... he did not know who the dead member of the Church was ... but he would get to know the family!

Thank you, Quix. I was afraid of that but had a weird feeling at the same time... It will be very interesting to find out who these people were and/or what, if any, organization and/or group they belong to if that’s the case.

Glad your friends are OK

Correct. The murderer was killed at the scene, and an innocent victim also died.

[I’ve been disappointed with a lot of the females I’ve seen in the Army.]

Being a woman, I would say that being in combat would not come ‘natural’ to a feminine woman. I know women have fought in various times and places throughout history.

A woman’s ‘killer instinct’ comes alive in an immediate need to protect her family.

You cannot walk into Wal-Mart and buy a AK-47 or an M-16.

But in FREE states you can walk into a gun shop, or pawn shop, and buy semiautomatic versions of either.

But criminals often steal their weapons, or buy from those who do.

"..”several suspicious devices were identified...” WTH?! Several??

In the chaos, with 7,000 people present, I'm sure people left stuff behind, so this may be less ominous than it sounds.

Thanks for passing that on. Of course, any rational person would think, being the Church and the Youth Ministries are linked, that the incidents are too. How could anyone think they aren’t. We can rule out copycat since the second was well prepared and obviously planned.

I agree with ya yield. She did what she had to do and saved a number of lives by her actions.

Hate to see what the left wingers and MSNBC would do to her.

One member shot dead, a security volunteer from the church shot the perp dead. Three are in the hostipal, one in critical condition, one in fair, one in good, all are stable right now.

Some of my friends are still in lock down, but it looks like it is over.

Check out this earlier post of mine. I found one myspace and the link I posted there gave another name.
