If the first thing you say when hearing about the shooting at a LDS church is “Mormons aren’t Christian” - please unfollow me.
I’m a member of the LDS church or a Mormon. There’s no greater influence in my life than Jesus Christ. My heart is too heavy to debate you.
If your first instinct in response to news of a terrorist shooting and arson at an LDS church is to point out that they’re “nOt ChRiStIaN” or a “CuLt”, please just shut up. Such a response tells me everything I need to know about you.
@BradRTorgersen I’m so heartbroken the last thing on my mind is correcting people for what they call us or even the trolls that want to bash. What a super heavy day 💔
A tragic act of violence occurred today at a chapel of The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints in Grand Blanc, Michigan. During Sunday worship services a gunman opened fire, and early reports indicate that multiple individuals were injured. We ask for cooperation with local authorities as details become available.
The Church is in communication with local law enforcement as the investigation continues and as we receive updates on the condition of those affected. We offer thanks to the emergency responders who are assisting victims and families.
We are deeply grateful for the outpouring of prayers and concern from so many people around the world. In moments of sorrow and uncertainty, we find strength and comfort through our faith in Jesus Christ. Places of worship are meant to be sanctuaries of peacemaking, prayer and connection. We pray for peace and healing for all involved.

@patriotUG2023 She’s traumatized. Her husband was just murdered and the video went viral. She had to tell her children their father was not coming home. Then she got to see crazy people celebrate the assassination of her husband.Maybe it’s not what you would do. She did because she wanted to.
@CarmineSabia I agree. He’s so young and the rhetoric is unhinged. When you hear it all day every day in those formative years, those sharing that awful rhetoric also are culpable. This young man is someone’s precious child. It’s tragic. Everyone loses. It’s devastating.
If you believe free speech is for you but not your political opponents, you're illiberal.
If no contrary evidence could change your beliefs, you're a fundamentalist.
If you believe the state should punish those with contrary views, you're a totalitarian.
If you believe political opponents should be punished with violence or death, you're a terrorist.
