Evidence that the shooting may have been perpetrated by a member of the neo-nazi group "Atomwaffen":

Thankfully, there was a guy from another church that came before the police responded who was armed and likely prevented even more casualties.
Only if the shooter had decided to try again to kill his mother-in-law. The shooter was done at the church and already leaving because he had exhausted the 15 magazines he'd brought for his AR-15.

Yet per reports from that "Good Samaritan" the killer returned fire & thus was still potentially a threat to kill more.

A pistol versus an AR-15. I'm just thankful that the "Good Samaritan" didn't end up shooting at a mistaken target . Under the circumstances, it would've been quite possible for two "Good Samaritans" to end up firing at each other because each thought the other was the bad guy.

Well the people there are thankful for their neighbor's assistance. While you continue to be sanctimonious to try to disprove the benefits of personal gun ownership.

There are plenty of people from Sutherland Springs who could dispute the benefits of our gun culture if they were only still alive.

Gov. Greg Abbot: hey, don't blow these shootings out of proportion guys. At least they're not as bad as the Holocaust.

I'm viewing the signature that is a picture of Samuel J. Tilden's tomb, in which his epitaph was, "I Still Trust The People". 

I'm wondering if he still trusted the people to keep and bear arms as per the 2nd Amendment.  Somehow, I think he did.

Not the same arms. Nice deflection though.
