A lunatic with a loaded gun walks into a preschool…

Heard this one before?

[Logan] Thorp walked up to the church side of the building and tried to open the doors, which were locked. He pressed the buzzer and a member of the church staff came to the door

Thorp pushed past her, despite her telling him the church wasn’t open. The staff member summoned the superintendent, who found Thorp in the sanctuary. The superintendent talked with Thorp for a while, trying not to agitate him. Eventually, Thorp tried to walk down the preschool [corridor] but found it locked, and the superintendent directed him to the exit.

On his way out, Thorp said he would have kicked the glass in if the church staff member hadn’t let him in … After he left the building, Thorp stood on top of his truck and used his hands to mimic holding binoculars up to his eyes pointing at the church. When the superintendent asked what he was doing, Thorp made a motion with his finger and hand going across his neck as if to indicate a threat of harm.

******************

Amazingly, he not only failed to shoot up the place, but was just convicted of carrying a gun on school property. Should keep us safe from him for a year or two.

    Some child must have offended this Christian soldier. I looked for more on this case and found this.

    I didn’t include an image of him because of what he did to his face. The people who dealt with him at the church/school must have been terrified.

  3. Dmitry Says:

    I’m not sure how terrified they were or were not. He and his family are congregants of that church. In any case, wouldn’t a church in the conservative southern US be armed and capable of defending itself if it came to it?
