Pretty bad when this is the norm. Wish I had a solution but I don't.
Best I can offer is to make mental health care a priority in this country, and make a national plan (egads, a socialist plan you say!). There are a lot of deranged people in this world, best to either help them or lock them up. I'm not talking about people who chase kids off their lawn. I'm talking about nut cases that have to buy an arsenal to feel "safe". Cowards like that are the ones who need help
Most won't agree with me, and a plan to help the mentally deranged won't ever happen. It'll be a political football which kills it on the spot.
Give me the days when you resolved conflict face to face, man to man. Those days are gone. Long gone. Enter cowards with an armory of firearms, bombs and the occasional truck you can either park in front of a federal building, or use it to drive over people you don't know
It's not the weapon, it's the deranged coward who's armed to the teeth for whatever weak assed deranged reason they give. Stop turd wrestling with the nra. They're trying to keep easy cushy low pressure jobs & feel like they're providing you a service. They're nut less. What we need is a national mental healthcare plan that works. If not, this will forever be the norm (multiple killings outside a church service)

Very weird targeting
They say he’s an outsider?
If so, this is very strange

The source has NOT been confirmed but they are saying the shooter was 29-year old and a recent convert.

There is no place that is safe any longer. I never imagined that it would go this far where you have to look over your shoulder when you do the basic things in life like practicing your faith.

That's brilliant.....are these the times of stupidity we live in? The TV and Movies made me do it "defense?" That's the problem in a nut shell. There is no longer any personal responsibility. Church? That's a joke too......that's where most of these nut jobs come from. So "Church" has pretty much been a scam of evil for centuries now. Why is it a majority of this crap resonates from "religion"? I don't want to here the ISIS, BS. propaganda crap either.....there are whack jobs from every walk.
People act like these are "dangerous times" ....  When were the safe times? History pretty much shows this has been going on since the beginning. People hating each other, people killing, genocide.......its all old news.
Then you'll hear all the crap . Prayers and wishes for the victims, same old garbage. Its too late for that now........that's what got these people killed. Church, religion........Mans greatest oxymoron........
