I was under the impression both Haggards church and the mission were linked...and who has the carry permit volunteer guards...both or just one...where was he shot the mission or Haggards church...?
Either way my comment still stands...why does a mission or church need armed guards...just like the Warren Jeff/Mormon cult did!
He was shot at Haggard's former church "New Life" or whatever they call it.
Arvada Mission Center was where he started, it is owned and run by a church in Arvada called Faith Bible Chapel (the church I grew up in). That is where he tried to enter because he "needed a place to sleep" and was refused because he had a handgun. The leaders there are not armed. It is a dormitory environment where missionaries are trained. I had said earlier it is likely he had lived there because if you hadn't it is unlikely you would even know it was there, let alone know where the entrance you could gain entrance at that time of night was... It turns out I was right. He was a student there, but was kicked out because of a mental illness where he had begun to hear aural hallucinations.
5 years later, and who knows if he ever got help for the schizophrenia, he returned to kill. He wasn't allowed in, none of the students were killed, it was the leaders that were refusing him entry that were shot there.
He then left and went somewhere to post some idiotic diatribe on the internet finishing with a verse from a song by KMFDM (No, it isn't some band that sings about killing alot, they sing about politics, the song he chose happened to be about Christianity). After posting his diatribe he then proceeded to plant some smoke bombs and start shooting at Haggard's church where he was met by the lady with the conceal carry permit who is either a volunteer guard there, or simply a lady with a conceal carry permit. I am getting conflicting information from different sources on that one. Either way, the church was on high alert (another reason that I think they knew who he was when he attempted entry at the Mission Center in Arvada and they knew he was the Nephew of one of New Life's pastors.)
There was a link between the two places because of a different program that is run there too, but this guy had no affiliation with that program at all. The link is a loose one as they both have separate chapters of a more national program called "Exodus".
He was the Nephew of one of the pastors at Haggard's old church. This is the likely reason he went there, not from the very thin link that I mentioned before.
The Mission Center is in Arvada, CO. Haggard's church is over 65 miles away in Colorado Springs... So, my guess right now is he left and found a friend or an internet cafe in CO Springs to post his idiocy then drove on over to begin what he thought would be a huge slaughter. Thankfully it was cut short by a quick acting lady with conceal carry. He then finished himself off, likely to avoid getting raped nightly and shared out by his new owner Larry.
