Investigators said they were able to stop the potential massacre at Park Valley Church in Haymarket thanks to someone who saw troubling posts on Instagram and called police
Authorities arrested a man who they say was minutes away from carrying out a mass shooting at a church in Northern Virginia on Sunday morning.
Rui Jiang, 35, was taken into custody with a loaded gun and extra ammo at Park Valley Church in Haymarket. Authorities said he was on a mission to kill.
“This was a thwarted diabolical plot to kill churchgoers in Haymarket, Virginia … and local law enforcement stopped it,” Chief Kevin Davis of the Fairfax County Police Department said.
“Minutes. Minutes. The congregation was making their way into the church. He was in the vestibule of the church about to enter,” Davis said. “So, minutes or seconds away.”
Nice, they can thwart a shooting at a church but not at a school.
What is the point of your comment?
Prince William County (where the church was) and Fairfax County (where the guy lived) police haven’t really had to deal with a school shooting incident, but have intervened when students were reportedly bringing guns to schools.
If anything, earlier this year, Fairfax County Police sent officers to monitor a school when a threat was found in the bathroom of a school and earlier this month, Prince William County Police were monitoring a school after a threat was called in.
Good for Fairfax County, but your argument is a logical fallacy.
Nice, it’s been a while since I saw the classic fallacy fallacy in the wild.
This isn’t even that, as it requires a fallacy to have been made in the first place, but I can’t find any in the parent comment.
So it’s a fictitious fallacy
Fallacy^3
Can we go deeper?
How so? The original commenter was suggesting that churches get protection while schools do not. Their assertion is simply incorrect.
