'Mass shooting' reported at small town church in Texas
 

The attack happened at the First Baptist Church in Sutherland Springs in Wilson County.
Local ABC affiliate KSAT 12 reported the gunman entered the church at around 11:30 local time and began shooting.
Police told the outlet there were "multiple victims" and the gunman had been killed in the aftermath. The number of casualties is not yet clear.
Photos and video from the scene showed the area taped off by local law enforcement.

:( wtf is going on atm

this has muslim militants written all over it.

I'm assuming it's too soon to talk about gun control

(It's too late btw)

But they need the guns to protect themselves. They deserve that right.

Imagine the death toll if they were actually under strict controls?

The statistics in our country are out of control because we don't have guns to protect ourselves from the criminals.

Right?

to be fair id rather be shot in the head in and die instantly in texas.

than die from a butual london stabbing

Oh no :(

Hate hearing stuff like this

RIP </3

Apparently a gun attack and a knife attack have the same fatality rates, i.e. if someone attacked you with a knife, you'd be just as likely to die if you were attacked with a gun. While you can't exactly attack an entire church with a knife, I'd rather live in a country where I can legally defend myself.

You wouldn't quite need such extreme measures of defence in a country that actually controls itself.

just another day in america

Like these 27 people defended themselves...

That's it. The death toll would be much lower if he was waving a knife around.

If someone walked into a church in Texas with a knife, I very very very highly doubt they would manage to kill even like 8 people - and that's pushing it a lot

i am sympathetic to the victims and their families. but honestly, why is this even a story? if america refuses to acknowledge that their gun laws are utterly moronic then so be it. the frequency of these atrocities can be reduced, these incidents can be prevented. but they choose not to do anything about it. so let's not bore the rest of the world with the same repetitive arguments. let them deal with this mess themselves.

very kill bill volume 2 teas

Tragic. R.I.P.
Those poor people murdered like that.
This wonderful world gets a little bit less wonderful by the day.:bawling:

Thoughts to the families and survivors.

just catching up on this - omg usa are having it bad. change is needed but where to begin ?

It has been just as bad for attacks in Europe over the past couple of years.

No it hasn't. This is Americas 377th mass shooting this year.

It's usually a white male when it's a mass shooting like this actually........

ooh look
