Gunman ranted against Mormons before deadly church assault

[Ocelot II]

1. Trump was ranting about "another attack on Christians," apparently unaware

that throughout history nobody has attacked Christians more enthusiastically than other Christians. Most of the wars in Europe for the last thousand years or so have been one Christian sect against another. Even before the Reformation the Catholic Church was persecuting other Christian sects like the Gnostics and the Albigensians, then after the Reformation all hell broke loose and the Christian vs. Christian fighting continued through the 30 Years War, the Mountain Meadows massacre in the US and the Troubles in Northern Ireland. When you complain about violence against Christians it might be a good idea to first determine whether it's another Christian doing the violence, since it often is.
