Sadly, âgoing to churchâ seems to have replaced âgoing postalâ.

Two more days for shootings in the US this year. Have we broken the record of 2018? This is sickening. Dog help us.

What kind of f**ked up country do we live in that you think you need to go to church armed, and then you actually do.

I assume it was a white church being that it was in White Settlement, TX.
Iâm still stuck at the âthou shalt not killâ commandment. When did churches abandon that one?

Sadly, I donât think a mere two killed qualifies as âmassâ these days.

Bevering said that the shooter was killed when armed churchgoers shot back at him.
This is a thing. A lot of people go practice shooting after church, so Sunday has become a packing day.

This will of course be a proof in millions of minds that guns make you more safe.

Also an excellent opportunity to sell ammo and gun accessories in the hospitality hour after the services. Think of the markup on a 100 rounds of 38 special bullets!

Was the critically injured person, shot by the bad guy or the good guy with a gun?

When I was a kid we had to take our clip-on tie to church. Now you just take the clip.

Finally the Good Guy with a Gun and his sidekick were in the right place at the right time.
Now according to the NRA this shouldnât happen again and kids should be able to worship Jeezus in complete safety.
Why didnât they have assault weapons? Nothing says "As for my house, we shall worship the Lord, " than an assault weapon.

This should put an end to âWhy donât you go to Church? What harm can it do?â
Now I can say, âI donât go cause I donât wanna get shot.â

Perhaps, but, then again, it did happen during church services.

Donât care about Traitorous Republican states. As far as Iâm concerned this is occupied land ⌠they can slaughter themselves all day long.
