In reply to the discussion: Breaking:_Multiple people shot at a church near Fort Worth Texas [View all]intheflow
(30,197 posts)49. My prediction: this was a ammosexual church and the shooter was a member with a vendetta
against another member. Just assuming this because a) it's a white church; b) members are armed in the pews; c) The shooter had an argument with someone before he started shooting. Maybe he's just related to someone in the church community. But I'm guessing since this doesn't seem to be racially or ethnically motivated, and they didn't mention the race of the shooter, it wasn't a random attack on Christianity, it was a personal, targeted shooting.

Good points. Crappy marksman, and Nealy Cox's asinine statement. Where is it OK to be subjected
