Having lived in MO for some time I CAN SAY they are insane about the Bible belt crap. My friend brought me to one church and they were running around like chickens for some time, speaking in tongues, then they proceeded to beg us for money so they can drive around in nicer cars. It was insane. INSANE.
The first man shot in the rural Missouri church sanctuary was a grandfather of three who had shepherded the local community of Micronesian immigrants for about 15 years.
His uncle started apologizing to the gunman in an attempt to defuse the situation, a witness said. Instead he was shot next.
Members of the tightly knit Micronesian community struggled Monday to comprehend why a gunman stormed into their church service, killed three religious leaders, and wounded five others. All of those who died were Micronesian immigrants and pastors or associate pastors, family members said.
”He was a very generous, outgoing person,” Lou Rehobson-Manuel said of her brother, Kernal Rehobson, the first man killed in the Sunday rampage. ”He was kind of a shepherd for all our sheep.”
