Who backgrounded that guy? He was arrested for the same thing in 1996.

Kinda sounds as if Jacob has wannabe hero complex

Guarantee that guy applied for the police department multiple times in multiple different counties and states

I suspected this story to turn out as it did from the the beginning.

I don't know why any church leader would report anything about that incident at all, pending an investigation! That was poor judgement and started untruths within the congregation!

Y'all need to show what Kyle was "preaching" about right before he was interrupted. Perfect timing or all staged?

Burnet, TX! I love Inks Lake State Park and Canyon of the Eagles. Great camping and hiking. I know that's off subject, but, hey, nothing happened after all.

Typical MAGA behavior. Lies on lies on lies.

That's easy for y'all to say when y'al didn't see the jihadists.
