    At least good guys with guns put down the bad person with a gun. I’ll bet this angle of the story disappears pretty quickly.

    News is saying they had a beef with family, some of whom are Jewish. I missed where this was connected to Osteen's church. Maybe some estranged family members attend there? Talking head didnt make that part clear enough.

    ..... formerly near the Wild Turkey
    Salvadoran ... hmm. Makes me wonder what our next decades look like, what with the giant river of humanity coming across our southern border and all. Maybe the world is sending it's best and brightest to enjoy the American Experience, but I'm doubtful.

    Good wake up call though. I really need to up my skill levels. I've been a slackard.

    From the The Texas Tribune:
    Authorities identified the gunwoman as Genesse Ivonne Moreno.

    Moreno has used other aliases, including Jeffrey Escalente, but has always been identified as a female who uses she and her pronouns, officers said. Moreno has a history of mental health issues, and Harris County court records show that she has a criminal history dating back to 2005. It is not clear how she obtained the two guns, but Hassig said the gun she used at the church was legally purchased in December of 2023.

    Any bets on her computers/phones were missing or destroyed?
    Overnight, law enforcement officers from multiple agencies executed a search warrant of Moreno's residence in Conroe, a city about 40 miles north of Houston. The affidavit requesting the search asked that Montgomery County law enforcement seize any and all ammunition, firearms, explosives, materials used to make explosives, weapons, cellphones and computers. Moreno's home was described as a single-family dwelling.

    I now know how Trump feels! Never get tired of winning!! :stickpoke::40oz:

    Some of that criminal history is as old as 2005. So not a recent border jumper.

    The claim that weapons were purchased legally suggests a green card holder. No comment on how that long criminal history didn't cause immigration or purchase problems.


    Take peanut gallery claims with a pinch of salt but it sounds like she was a well known lunatic who the authorities ignored reports about.

    My wife found a local news reporter interviewing the shooters neighbors. The criminal was not a friendly person. They had been bullied, stalked and generally harassed by the person that threatened and shot inside Lakeview church.

    So you're saying they were an all around good person and exemplified the American spirit?
