This is not the right mood for me to go to choir practice in. As Brother Wayne Kramer says, “Bomb-loving leaders get bomb-loving citizens.” It doesn’t surprise me this happened at this point in history, after that election, not one bit.

The church sits by a traffic light and teenagers with a BB gun might have just popped off a few shots, she noted.
