About 11:20 a.m., Jesse Gates returned to the church. The Rev. Guyton’s grandson, Aaron Guyton, 26, was in the recreation building separate from the church and saw Gates get a shotgun from the trunk of his car.
“At that point, I knew I had to do something,” Aaron Guyton said. “I wanted to try to contain him outside.”
Aaron Guyton went into the main building and locked the doors.

Of course it won’t and that just stinks!!
Glad the good guys knew what to do!

I’ve always felt that my congregation needs my gun in church, just in case. It may never be needed, but it’s there every day that I am.
Heh. An armed citizen stopping bloodshed?
Never happened, so sayeth the MSM.
Some news stories are more equal than others?
Agirl/Rev- True sigh…
Murphy- Same here
DT- Ain’t THAT the damn truth…
WSF- Yep, pigs AND news stories…
I just love a happy ending!
It won’t get a peep in the press.
I wouldn’t go to a church that didn’t allow me to defend my beliefs, in every aspect.
You can’t believe everything you don’t read…
