I'd be surprised if every Pastor did not keep a weapon behind the pulpit today.
Making such a threat, the intruder was lucky a church member was not armed.

Was the man armed?

Yes, the man was armed with at least a pistol. But he did not fire any shots. Apparently the pastor, with his law enforcement and crisis intervention training, defused the situation and the guy eventually fled. He's been caught.

Apparently he's ape ____ crazy but thankfully the pastor was able to reason with him and calm him down. The pastor has a background in criminal justice and crisis intervention.

We heard about this here in northeast Texas but I was wondering if anyone outside this area had heard about this event.


first I heard of it and I am in the Dallas media area.

It must be an Obama admin directive to not discuss any muslim immigrant issues. Did anyone notice the Syrian immigrant situation wasn't discussed at the Republican debate?

I just think it is VERY STRANGE that no one outside this area seems to have heard about this and it makes me wonder what else is not making the news.

If Republicans don't like Muslims, then why do they keep squandering trillions to the Middle East?
