  • CF has always been a site that welcomes people from different backgrounds and beliefs to participate in discussion and even debate. That is the nature of its ministry. In view of recent events emotions are running very high. We need to remind people of some basic principles in debating on this site. We need to be civil when we express differences in opinion. No personal attacks. Avoid you, your statements. Don't characterize an entire political party with comparisons to Fascism or Communism or other extreme movements that committed atrocities. CF is not the place for broad brush or blanket statements about groups and political parties. Put the broad brushes and blankets away when you come to CF, better yet, put them in the incinerator. Debate had no place for them. We need to remember that people that commit acts of violence represent themselves or a small extreme faction.

From what the reports are saying the shot came from a campus building about 200 ft away... The person they originally arrested wasn't the right person from the sounds of it... But hopefully that campus building has some sort of video cameras or something that can provide some clues.

This is so tragic. I feel so horrible for his family. Charlie stood up for the 2nd Ammendment and became a victim of someone using a firearm. He wasn't stupid and knew exactly what he was standing for. His poor family.

I certainly hope we find the shooter and discover his motive, what kind of gun it was and how he obtained it. It will tell us if anything short of banning all guns would have worked. Were there red flags?

Charlie was a great Christian man who stood up for what he believed in. He was a great husband and father from all accounts and a goid man.

A great EVIL was done today by an EVIL person. But death is swallowed up in victory for Charlie, though his friends and family will miss him dearly.

“Trump Says.” It seems CNN is where I’m at… He could genuinely be dead, or Trump could be… Trump and wanting to be the first old person to FB with the news.
I saw video of the shot, I don't see how he could have survived that.

Or because he is a human being that may have not wanted his death video bandied about for the masses to see as entertainment, and it is against my ethics to view it for that reason…

With a secondary concern that I have an involuntary throw-up response to seeing sudden gore and given that I’m waiting for an RX, throwing up here and now would be inconvenient.

I’m not sure who shot him, but my stance on gun control and gun violence has been consistent, so that person is no representative of mine.

Has somebody other than Trump confirmed his death…? The whole unreliable narrator thing, and all…
It's on Yahoo. If you seen the video. You would know, that he didn't have a chance. Even if you're hopeful.

Sorry. I didn't read it that carefully. Somebody above has a better source.
