Complete embodiment of evil. And, now the stories and pictures of the deceased are coming out. In particular, the Holcombe family comes to mind...they lost 8 family members................................

Holcombe-Family-640x480.jpg


One Texas family lost eight of its members, four of whom were children and one a pregnant woman, in Sunday’s tragic church shooting rampage that claimed 26 lives.
Eight of the Holcombe family members were among those who attended and were shot dead during services at the First Baptist Church of Sutherland Springs when a gunman, identified as Devin Patrick Kelley, stormed the church and killed 26, as Breitbart Texas reported. Kelley later died from a self-inflicted gunshot wound. Authorities believe his horrific actions were related to a domestic dispute.

A relative of the family told KSAT that John Holcombe was in the church Sunday morning with his four months-pregnant wife, Chrystal, and her four children, parents, plus brother and sister-in-law. Three of the children, 13-year-old Greg Hill, 11 year-old Emily Hill, and eight-year old Megan Hill, were slain inside the church with their mother. Medics rushed six-year-old Evelyn Hill to University Hospital where she remains in stable condition. John Holcombe was released from the hospital Sunday night after sustaining injuries from shrapnel. Holcombe’s parents, Bryan and Karla also died in the massacre as well as his brother, Marc, 36, and his one-year-old daughter Noah. The eldest of the Hill children, PJ, did not attend church with the family because he was home sick.

Family friend Christopher Foster created a GoFund Me account in honor of Holcombe’s sister Sarah Holcombe Slavin who is also alive.

It states:

We are putting this together in honor of Sarah Holcombe Slavin, who has lost half of her family. Her father was the guest speaker at church that day; she was running late. She has lost her father, mother, sister-in-law (who was pregnant), five nieces and nephews, and her best friend since childhood, Tara. This means her brother John has lost his mom, dad, wife, and three kids (with two more injured) in one day. Another brother has lost two children as well. Keep them all in your prayers. If we could all gather up some financial support to send this family during this devastation, it would be a blessing. This is too much to bear on their own, let’s be the Church!

“It’s going to take a lot of funds to cover eight funerals, lost wages, perhaps child/adult counseling, and who knows what else,” said Foster on Facebook, according to the Austin American-Statesman. “No matter what number the Go Fund Me reaches, it will never be enough. But everything helps.”

So far, nearly 1,000 people have joined forces to raise almost $60,000 of the $100,000 goal.

Because "gun control" doesn't work, anchovies.

Why not admit that confiscation is your goal?

They should make the minimum age for weapon possession over 25, have each owner declare every weapon and serial number and set up a national database. Any weapon found with a filed off serial number should be confiscated and the owner jailed.

It's already an offense to possess a weapon with an obliterated serial number, slimy Limey.

As to the rest of your pompous polemic, I direct the dishonorable member to the memoirs of General Thomas Gage, who tried to impose British tyranny on American arms and was defeated.

On 14 April 1775 Gage received orders from London to take decisive action against the Patriots. Given intelligence that the militia had been stockpiling weapons at Concord, Massachusetts, he ordered a troop of regulars to march there on the night of 18 April to confiscate them. A brief skirmish in Lexington scattered colonial militia forces gathered there, but in a later standoff in Concord, a portion of the British force was routed by a stronger colonial militia contingent. When the British left Concord following their search (which was largely unsuccessful, as the colonists, with advance warning of the action, had removed most of the supplies), arriving colonial militia engaged the British column in a running battle all the way back to Charlestown. The Battles of Lexington and Concord resulted in 273 total casualties for the British and 93 for the American rebels.

Stick to your own tiny, impoverished and unarmed island, Lord Cornhole-us.

I know that but typically the perp just receives a fine for a first offence. You Septics do make me laugh though, so full of shit.

And this latest incident is being immediately used to once again complain about firearms and call out for more "regulations" and you're exactly correct with "where there is a will, there is a way"; because some actually believe that mass murder will end, when more regulations are in effect.

I guess dying from being run over or having your body mangled by a truck bomb or from being stabbed repeatedly, is way better. :palm:
