Shooting at a Knoxville Tennessee church

Tweet

There was a shooting this morning at a Knoxville Tennessee church. The shooter walked into the church and started firing. The children were performing a play so they were all up front. When the shooting began the children were escorted quickly out throught an exit. 9 people were shot (2 have now died) and others in critical. The shooter apparently was mad because his parents used to make him go to church and he thought the bible contradicted itself. I was especially effected because my husbands whole family lives in Knoxville Tennessee and we were so happy to find out that it was not their church. But I am still so saddened the fact that this happened to anyone. It makes me so angry that a person can not go to a place of worship with out thinking that someone with a gun won't come in behind you and kill you. That scares me. What is wrong with these people, going to church's, going to schools, and just killing people for no reason, just because they have problems. I feel for these families. We need to pray for the families. I thank God that the kids were able to get out alive and that more people were not hurt. It just makes me sad that things like this happen.
