I was wondering if that location was on my brother's school bus route

It is, AND he said he'd seen a pick up truck with those flags aggressively driving by that church on more than one occasion. Sometimes the flags were trump and another featuring an assault rifle. Could be a coincidence. He's going to look at the photos of the truck.

The Grand Blanc School District has called off classes for tomorrow. They cited traffic conditions There's already traffic issues due to road work, both street and freeway, so it was a nightmare getting around even before this happened.

He is pretty convinced this was a retribution attack to avenge Kirk's murder by a Mormon.

That would be a very interesting wrinkle if the shooter was retaliating against Mormons Ocelot II Sep 2025 #1

for the murder of Charlie Kirk. If so, Trump and MAGA will be disappointed that he's not a Black trans Mexican Antifa immigrant instead of the usual messed-up white guy with a thing for guns. OTOH, maybe they'll actually celebrate him for avenging Kirk's death (if that's what he was doing), and fundie Christians think Mormons are heretics anyhow.

He was on the road back from Chicago when he heard the news.

The city of Burton is badly infested with MAGAts.

There are still a couple of people unaccounted for. The fear is they burned in the church.

On another thread, someone speculated this violent mass murder might have been retribution for ck murder by mormon.

The whole violent mess sickens me.

I hope your neice is ok.
