#3 Word is it's a guy named Chris Ward that killed his family before attacking the church. Apparently a local. Betcha either a divorace and/or taking something for mental issues that pushed him off the deep end.

#4 But that's unconfirmed so don't take it as fact yet. They also are saying that services typically had 50 people or so.

I don't think BLM or Antifa could find Sutherland Springs Texas even if they knew about Google maps.

#21 Does dishonourable discharge and court-martial remove rights to own firearms??

regardless, a Special and General courts martial conviction makes it a federal felony. Thus one convicted in such a court is a felon and not eligible to own guns. It's that felony thingy that the feds in Chicago are using to prosecute gun crimes there.

#22 SALTTexas Rangers: Armed Citizen ‘Engaged’ Killer, Ending Rampage

Today's mass shooting in Sutherland Springs, Texas, was only halted after an armed Texan "engaged" the killer and put an end to the rampage, the Texas Rangers reported.

Freeman Martin, a major in the Texas Rangers and a spokesman for the Texas Department of Public Safety, says the suspect dropped his rifle and fled after being confronted by a local man who had grabbed his rifle.

Freeman provided a timeline of the tragedy in a press briefing Sunday evening.

"At approximately 11:20 this morning a suspect was seen at a Valero gas station in Sutherland Springs, Texas," Martin said. "He was dressed in all black. That suspect crossed the street to the church, exited his vehicle and began firing at the church."

"That suspect then moved to the right side of the church and then continued to fire," he continued. "That suspect entered the church and continued to fire. As he exited the church, a local resident grabbed his rifle and engaged that suspect. The suspect dropped his rifle, which was a Ruger AR assault-type rifle and fled from the church."

"Our local citizen pursued the suspect at that time," Freeman went on. "A short time later as law enforcement responded that suspect right at the Wilson/Guadalupe County line crashed out and was found deceased in his vehicle. At this time we don’t know if it was a self-inflicted gunshot wound or if he was shot by the local resident. We know he’s deceased in the vehicle. "

The suspected killer is being reported as Devin Patrick Kelley. However, Freeman would reported, "The suspect has not been completely identified. We believe he’s a young white male, maybe in his early 20s. He was dressed in all black, tactical type gear and was wearing a ballistic vest."

#25 Sounds like the rifleman scored a solid hit. That is deer hunting area. Sounds like the rifle was a deer hunting rifle. Appears the rifleman knew he was pursuing a hit animal. Good job.
