He had been given a Colt recently as a present, heard that. Not saying it’s relevant.
He said he was there “to shoot black people”? Reeeeeally?
How about the folks there stop flapping their mouths before some lawyer uses every trick in the book to get him off based on statements like that.
That was quick.
Press conference expected soon.
I sincerely am sorry this happened. Wish one of the church members have been CCWing.
Excellent!
Ask me why I carry at church. Go ahead, ask me.
I read it was against the law. Sigh.
Pastor Barry Obama will be preaching soon..
Good. Hang him HIGH!
Incidentally, its amazing how all of a sudden the media is OK with saying the RACE of the people involved.
“White man shoots Black people” mentioned dozens of times in each article, over and over and over.
Had the tables been turned, a ‘teen’ would be the shooter... no mention of hate or race after that.
Go to the Drudge Report.A witness reports that he said,”You rape our women and are taking over our country.You have to go.”
That pretty much settles it for me! Obviously a democrat southerner, ticked off because the South lost. Want to keep mass shooting from happening? Ban liberals, not guns.
Always.
Not here in Arizona, it ain’t.
Oh, their all gonna come out of the wood work for this one.
Your church have metal detectors? The one involved obviously did not
Evil punk, that will never figure out that color does not matter, actions do. And his (if it is him) deserve the maximum penalty of law.
