Indeed.

Our boys in blue should be allowed to carry everywhere IMO.

This is a disgusting attack. The motive is irrelevant. This is Evil.

Fixed it for you. Government agents shouldn't be "more equal" than the rest of us freemen.

"At least 27 have been killed," "At least 24 others were injured," "witnesses said they heard as many as 20 shots fired."

That's an awful lot of pass-throughs, even assuming no misses. And this at a church that usually sees about 50 worshipers...so basically everybody was a casualty. Some major inconsistencies there.

Many churches serve communion on the first Sunday of each month. Those seem to be the most attended services.

It sounds like what stopped the shooting and caused the shooter to flee was a "good guy with a gun."

Looks like a citizen engaged the shooter with his rifle as he left the church, stopping the gunfire. Shooter carried a Ruger AR type rifle which he dropped after being shot at by the citizen. Shooter wore all black tactical type gear with ballistic vest.
Official # of dead is 26 not including shooter. 25 at the scene and 1 a the hospital.
Video of the church is showing what appears to be bullet holes through the outside walls.

I disagree.

For example, in prison. In a court room/courthouse, visiting the white house or the capitol building, for example... sometimes it makes sense. Going to a trump rally...

Prisons are a special case; even officers shouldn't be carrying there (and generally can't even now). Some states do allow carry in courthouse and capitol buildings, and it hasn't proven to be a problem. And a political rally seems to be a place where defensive force is more likely than average to be necessary (see, e.g. Antifa attacks).

Swing and a miss, tristan. The government is us, and we are the government. Start creating a special class of masters and you're headed down a dangerous and scary road.

...but this is all off-topic.

I know of at least 5 other people besides me that carries in my church. THere would be a 6th but for some reason he don’t ever carry even though he has a license. Maybe this will change his mind. I carry every single place I go. I don’t take any chances. This is why we should be allowed to carry everywhere. Because nowhere is safe. May God bless all that are hurting in this terrible tragedy.

If the shooter has been identified correctly, he was dishonorably discharged from the USAF so he should have never been able to own a firearm.
