Another mass shooting.....

[Minimalist]

He was court marshaled and received a dishonorable discharge from the air force based on charges he abused his wife and child.
His in-laws were members of the church in question. Not present that morning, however.

No motive has been officially announced, and may never be, but I think revenge on those he saw at fault for his dishonorable discharge seems possible, even likely.

If that's the case, he's a real coward for taking revenge on the military by killing children in a church. I would have loved to see him try that against actual military members at a military facility.

Why is a church so special compared to a school?  Remember, right-wing nuts started calling Sandy Hook a government conspiracy almost from the beginning.

And being at a military facility hardly even slowed down the Fort Hood shooter.

It is important to understand that the attacker always has the advantage because he decides when (or if) to act.  If armed soldiers in a war zone can be taken by surprise no one should wonder why civilians in any kind of setting can be taken by surprise.

What's the next infamia, I wonder?  Opening fire on the crowd at a football game?  Lots of symbolism there, for sure.
