🚨The attack in Grand Blanc was carried out by a 40-year-old male who drove his vehicle directly into the front doors of the church.

After ramming the entrance, he opened fire inside, injuring 9 people and killing 1.

Working assumption is that this is another trans dude. These days, it's guilty until proven innocent.
Plenty of trannies in Michigan so even more likely.

Define assault rifle. Wouldn't that be any long gun (including shotguns) used in an assault?
Whose names do you want posted on social media platforms?

This wasn't the only shooting like this in the last 24 hours. Some guy in a boat approached a dock in NC and shot up the patrons at a restaurant.
For all the details we argue about (race, gender, mental health status, sexual orientation, etc) the thing that remains constant is the gun.
The bullet doesn't care about all the things we do. It just destroys lives. The bullet doesn't care that you're a better dude than me, when it comes at us, you could be ****ed.
We can do something about this. We won't. After Sandy Hook, I lost faith in our will to do what's right for the country.

In my 62 years of life, I have never once had any of my guns jump up and shoot at anybody. Not once.
Timothy McVeigh took 168 lives without pulling a trigger. Fertilizer and jet fuel are still legal.

Baby steps first. Ban assault rifles. There is no way firearms will be banned in this country but assault rifles are nut jobs weapon of choice.

62 is young. You're right, your gun is innocent. Still, we should make sure your gun never ends up in my diseased hands.
Every Hairy Dick Tom should not be able to get a gun just because they turned 18.

GT, we can't keep doing nothing and expect different results.
We keep doing nothing "because it won't work" we are smart enough to cut these shootings in half.

Although the odds are that it'd be a leftist anti-church type of person, I won't be surprised if it's just a non-political non-Mormon holding a grudge against the Mormon church for various reasons. Lots of control and power in that church and state that may have affected the person.

Do states like Illinois and Minnesota with strict gun control have any gun violence?
