pretty sure my church has a guy that carries. always sits in the back pew, wears gun related shirts and tactical pants, and wears his sunglasses at 8am in church.


Sounds like a suspect!

I carry in church and, although prepared, I hope to never have to pull it! God bless us all.

I think its being bored in church. I hate to admit it knowing this, but our church has 34 overhead hanging lights. Third row second from left has a slightly different hue.

I see a lot of people talking about being armed at church. If you plan to do this, you should meet with the church and all of you attend training together. Also have a coordinated plan so that everyone knows everyone and you do not shoot each other when things get ugly. A few sessions of role play are vital.

I wonder if that applies to a flare gun?

Probably a Redditor who stares at r/Atheism all day. On a side note, I went to preschool there and have fond memories and hilarious 70's pictures from that place.

I’ll bet he means locked to the outside. There is probably still a door or two that that can lead to a means of egress just not the main doors.

Only searched with DuckDuckGo which could be the problem, but is it weird that only this loveshreveportbossier dot org website is the only place this story comes up in a search (besides this thread)? Seems like it should be a bigger deal. Is this a legit local news website?


Yeah I did the same. I could only find it on Facebook, Instagram, and LSB that’s why I went with that one. But my buddy heard from people that go to the church that it happened before it was on any of those sites.

I don’t just do it at church though. I look for exits and potential threats any time I’m in public.

Fwiw, the midgets facebook profile says he was born in 2000. The report says it was a 21 year old.

After the Dylan Roof shooting, many churches started putting security plans in place. Good thing this church had one. Evil lurks in the darkness. Shine a light on the good that this church did so others can do the same to fight fire with fire.

Oddly enough, sitting in church, I have thoughts of this happening.


It’s the exact reason I sit on the back row right by the door.

I see him walking all of the time in south Bossier. He has videos where he used to work at Gregg Orr selling cars. He seemed like such a nice guy in his videos. I think he’s been living on the streets and using so no telling where his mind is at this point.

That Sonic roller skate guy was working at the E 70th St location at least 15 years ago and this guy is said to be 21.

Is there a different little guy working at one of the South Bossier Sonics? I stop at the one by Brookshire’s about once a month and never saw him there.

Could they be related, as some types of dwarfism are more hereditary than others?
