Shooter was Devin Patrick Kelley...dishonorably discharged from the airforce. Used to teach a bible class and supposedly recently converted to atheism. Also had ties to the social justice crowd.
Kelley dressed in black and wearing a "tactical vest" shot into the church building as he approached, went inside and shot the congregation. Upon exiting the building a neighbor who had heard the shooting engaged him with a rifle. Kelly fled in his vehicle and was found dead some miles from the scene.
27 dead including Kelley. 20 wounded some severely.
"The time for war has not yet come, but it will come and that soon, and when it does come, my advice is to draw the sword and throw away the scabbard." Gen. T.J. Jackson, March 1861
