Praise the Lord, and pass the ammunition.

Wow, he really didn't like gingers.

God knows I have that reaction to children's plays.

Why?

/is Omarion ok?

It's a hard knock life.

Read about this on Wii a few hours ago. strange

Bicycle safety tip: It's a hard knock life.

LOL!

Meh, I usually just go stabby.

Why? Guns are too quick.

Snarfangel: Praise the Lord, and pass the ammunition.

Well it's obvious, the Lord told the man to shoot those pagans.

"Over Powered by worshippers"
I dont know why that made me chuckle.

Sounds like he ran out of shells and they jumped him while he fumbled to reload. Shows a lack of preparation and knowledge on the shooters part, for not reloading as he went, or at least take something with a larger capacity, that is going to be reloaded quicker. Sucks for the victims too. Who would think that a large crowd, stuck in a tight place with no easy avenue of escape would be such a target.

Just another reason I don't attend services.

WTF?

I think he hated Gay's, TV told me so.

For a moment there, I thought Woody Allen died from a gunshot wound and the shooter was going after Annie Hall.

/Never saw the movie, yet.

Dangit, this is serious!

Stop making me lol!!

A bystander allegedly witnessed God frantically updating his plan for those who were shot and wounded, and their friends and family.

Sad, but it was God's will.

Well, last I checked the Unitarians aren't considered a religion by the boyscouts, so we can't really chalk this up as religious violence.

Quick! What video games was he playing? What's on his iPod? WHAT CAUSED THIS?

yeah, yeah... killed and wounded

Did it sat 1 dead, 8 injured a second ago?
because now it's 2 dead and 7 injured.

I wonder if I should stop clicking the link ...

i imagine a lot of conversations going like this

"someone shot up a church"

"oh my gawsh thats just so terrible, why would someone do something like that in God's house"

"oh wait, its a unitarian church"

"dirty heathens"

Was he a disgruntled worshiper?

/not obscure

Okay people, try to control yourselves here... I know this is a church and some of you are anti-religion, but we all know this is a horrible situation...

/who am I kidding, I'm outta here before this thread gets epic

As they fled the scene, survivors saved the holiest of holy relics from the UU church -- the coffee pot.

Now, Smackwater Jack,
He bought a shotgun
'Cause he was in the mood
For a little confrontation.
He just a-let it all hang loose;
He didn't think about the noose.
He couldn't take no more abuse
So he shot down the congregation.

You can't talk to a man
With a shotgun in his hand....shotgun...

Wow that Churches' name is a mouthful. Kinda like what that priest is putting in that choir boys mouth.

/too soon?
//Don't care

At least no children were hurt.

Wonder if this will be a gun nut thread, a religious flamewar, or both. Ought to be interesting.

/makes popcorn

That's the same church I got married in last October. Wow.

TFA: Church member Barbara Kemper told The Associated Press that McKendry "stood in the front of the gunman and took the blast to protect the rest of us."

A lot of good it did...

I know this is a church and some of you are anti-religion, but we all know this is a horrible situation...

It's the UUs. Those of us who are "anti-religious" are opposed to hateful churches, not the tolerant, friendly, "take what you want, leave what doesn't work" buffet style of religion that is the UUs.

This is terrible.

I wonder if he refers to himself as "Cowboy Dan".

/God, if I have to die...you will have to die

You see that liberals? Self-defense isn't so ridiculous now, is it?

These people have guns and they want you dead. You can't reason with them, because they aren't rational. You can't appeal to their better nature, because they have none. They don't feel guilt or remorse, but they do feel shame - it drives them mad, fueled by their resentment of your superiority.

Your only chance is to arm yourselves... before it is too late. One day the tall trees will be cut down.

Based on the number of comments referencing "God", "Lord" and or "Christian", it appears a lot of folks don't know about Unitarians.

Nicotinus: At least no children were hurt.

This gun nut will do no such thing. I made my snarky comment. This is a disturbed person who because of whatever was going on in his mind felt the need to shoot up a church. I am also glad no kids were hurt.

However, still believe children's plays should be outlawed.

I agree. I'm basically atheist, but I am also a prominent member of a UU church. Yeah, I know it's somewhat hypocritical, but it works for me.

OK, fundie Farkers, time to see what you are really made of. Where's the outrage at this despicable act?

Ah, there's one. Seems a bit trollish, but I'm sure the thread will be full of this sort of earnest nonsense before long.

Stupid troll. Even the most hardcore gun advocates I know do not bring their guns to church. Wouldn't have made a damn bit of difference here.

/Idiot

god is lame and guns are stupid

Oh, everything is gonna be just fine. Just remember, the victims are in a "better place" now.

Shut the hell up. Honestly. Shut. The. Hell. Up.

I said, stop it!!!!!

/more lols

So conservatives are in favor of bringing guns to church?

Doesn't surprise me, I guess.

Did it sat 1 dead, 8 injured a second ago?
because now it's 2 dead and 7 injured.

Yeah, another one died. Hence, 2 dead instead of 1.

All right, fine. I'll agree with you on that one.

Oh, this should be epic.
