i understood one man with a gun and a vet who came running towards the shooting who was fighting people running from it. he was unarmed.. called the shooter a couple off color names, telling shooter to put down gun..shooter finally opened up on him as he dove behind some wood , got hit and some splitters from shots into the wood.. he i think told another guy to shoot who had direct aim at the shooter but the guy froze. the woman came around the corner towards the shooting, i believe she warned him to lay down his gun , he turned and fired at her , she started firing while walking directly to him.

that is what i took away from news conference last night with police, minister and her report. seems she was on a three religious fast at the church and it was her last day when the shooting started.

One of the men had clear shooting and a Vietnam vet who ran to the scene was begging him to shoot and then begging him to give him the gun. Yelled some profanities at the guy to draw his fire away from the other parishioners and then finally the women arrived on the scene and started walking right at him and shooting. The one guard at least sounded about as useful as balls on a heifer.

This according to an interview I saw.
