Wasn't there another shooting (maybe mass shooting) awhile back done by a transgender person? I seem to recall that.
Yes, a Trans who was a former student of the Nashville Tennessee Christian school they targeted in 2023.



Here's today's CBN update on the Texas shooting:

Shooter at Joel Osteen's Church Had History of Mental Illness, Antisemitism

Interesting..... and weird


Conservatives posted about Moreno's gender identity prior to the press conference.

"JUST IN: The shooter at Joel Osteen's Lakewood Church has been identified as a transgender Bernie Sanders supporter. Shocker," posted conservative commentator Collin Rugg.

A Reuters fact check conducted in March 2023 also found that cisgender men, not transgender or non-binary individuals, comprise a majority of shooters. A shooting in Nashville last year marked the first instance of a transgender shooter in a mass shooting, in which four or more individuals were killed, a spokesperson for The Violence Project told the news outlet.

It is a longish article but this above has a term I have never heard so looked it up

cisgender

cisgender​

adjective

cis·gen·der (ˌ)sis-ˈjen-dər

variants or less commonly cisgendered
(ˌ)sis-ˈjen-dərd
: of, relating to, or being a person whose gender identity corresponds with the sex the person was identified as having at birth

How about prayer for those congregants who surely had to have been scared out of their minds hearing the gun shots?

Prayer for God to calm their hearts with His love?
I have from reading this first report. And for those listening remotely as well given they heard the shots during the live stream SAP broadcast.

Did Osteen actually say, 'pray for the dead woman'?

So......off duty police officers carry their guns when attending church??
Wasn't one of them hired as a security guard? And some other guy was the other guard?

Pretty sad stuff though, and it's not the first shooting at a Church in the US either.

No... The Tree of Life Synagogue... a hours drive from me had a nut go wild.

The congregation, along with New Light Congregation and Congregation Dor Hadash, which also worshipped in the building, was attacked during Shabbat morning services on October 27, 2018. The perpetrator killed eleven people and wounded six, including several Holocaust survivors. It was the deadliest attack on any Jewish community in the United States.

Please... NO ONE say anything about this being Jewish. It still was a horror on a group of worshipers

We had two Sheriff's Deputies in our church. Both were required to carry while off duty. The Board met and decided to allow the two plus three other Police Officers to carry while in the church. They laughed when one of the Board Members said "Why not? Ray wears his stripes when arriving from a football game? If I was in hurry I wore the stripes. Pastor stopped his sermon once and asked if I had a flag with me.

Cisgender means not transgender right?
I feel like that fact check is common sense when you consider that at least 99% of the US population hasn't changed their gender and that men are designed by God to be hunters and protectors and therefore naturally more aggressive than women.
