A pastor shot and killed a man who was allegedly trying to attack him with a brick on Sunday in the vestibule of a Detroit church, police said.
Cops say Deante Smith, 25, attacked the unidentified pastor and threatened several parishioners of The City of God church with a brick and hammer. Police said the attack was not random; the pastor and Smith knew each other and the two have had problems in the past.
Assistant Detroit Police Chief Steve Dolunt said a previous police report had been filed against Smith, The Detroit Free Press reported.
“The pastor had had issues with the man before,” Dolunt told the Detroit News. “He had been threatening to do him bodily harm. He walked into the service and went after the pastor with a brick. The pastor pulled out his Glock and fired several shots. I think he hit him four or five times, and the man died.”

Good shooting Pastor I just love a happy and permanent ending.

There are no problems that cannot be resolved by the suitable application of high explosive.

Really, in church.

Either the pastor fired at a fellow with a brick from a distance whilst in service or he missed a couple of shots with-in brick smacking range during a service. Wouldn't want to be anywhere near him when he started shooting.
These are my opinions, feel free to disagree.

Sometimes the so-called Texas defense is completely appropriate: "He needed killing."

There was a reason even Peter was armed while in the garden... even the Christ himself in close proximity. There is a time and place for all things.

So, do the majority here think a Christian has no right to self defence? Should someone just stand and be beaten to death just because he has a personal beliefs in God? Does the second amendment only apply to non Christians?
