Genesse Moreno have soft armor vests at home. Warrant suggests she brought Det cord and an attempt at homemade explosives to Lakewood.

The video makes a little more sense if Moreno was wearing armor... as one plainclothes LEO used about 2 magazines worth of ammo.
I’d be curious as to how she obtained det cord.
If you ever decide to watch MSNBC for very long, you'll come away believing that fully-automatic weapons are easily and plentifully available for just a few hundred dollars via the "gun show loophole," and probably that Det cord and C-4 can be purchased by MAGA Republicans at their neighborhood Dick's Sporting Goods.

Paladin wrote: Thu Feb 15, 2024 11:39 am I'm guessing Houston's Soros DA has a hand in Lakewood Church shooting. Keeping the shooter out of prison or keeping their criminal record clean so that the shooter could purchase a firearm. Maybe both.
And luckily for Harris County, there are currently only two front-runners for the upcoming DA election, and they're both bluer-than-blue dimocrats: Incumbent Kim Ogg and challenger Sean Teare. :banghead:

In fact, Teare is spending a ton on TV ads, so that money is no doubt coming from a source like Soros. And two of his major hit-points against Ogg is that she once brought in an attorney to investigate other dimocrats (What?! How dare she?!) and the attorney had once done work for Republicans (OMG! Even worse!). Not only that, Teare is quoting Ogg when she once said that she would "selectively prosecute [Gov] Abbott's extreme abortion law on a case-by-case basis"...the inference being, I assume, that Teare, in a DA's role, can somehow choose to never enforce any particular state law that he feels is counter to his ideological agenda. That's like when Sheila Jackson Lee tried to for Houston Mayor on an anti-gun platform. Sorry, Sheila, a city mayor can't reverse the 2nd amendment, the Texas state Constitution, and state preemptory laws. Idiot.

Dan Simons is the only Republican candidate. Good luck finding out a lot about him: https://ballotpedia.org/Dan_Simons. I can't link to one website (because of some of the language) that provided some info about him as of two days ago, so I'll just quote a part of it:
Dan is the Republican nominee for Harris County District Attorney. He is an attorney and a man of the people posing with his convertible Porsche on his website. According to his website he specializes in DWI cases. He ran for judge in 2018 and lost. He ran for judge in 2022, lost, then filed suit. That suit was dismissed.

While the Democratic candidates competing in the primary have raised millions in donations, Simons has raised $15,000 of which $15,000 came from his own pocket. I’m wondering if even Mattress Mac would come to his rescue in the general election.
Simons is running unopposed for the Republican nomination, so the odds of Harris County getting a law-first--or even law-abiding--DA come 2025 is slim to none.

Re: Lakewood Church

Yep. She definitely doesn't fit the desired leftist narrative. Sorry, Lina; sorry Uncle Joe; sorry Chucky Schumer. I'm actually a little surprised that I'm not seeing more willful suppression of the news about this. Or maybe I am and just don't know it.

From an ABC News update a few hours ago:

Suspected Lakewood Church shooter Genesse Moreno had criminal history, mental health issues, documents say
https://abcnews.go.com/US/suspected-lak ... =107179259
The past of Genesse Ivonne Moreno, the suspected Lakewood Church shooter, includes a turbulent marriage, a contentious divorce, allegations of child and spousal abuse, a checkered criminal record and a well-documented history of mental health issues, according to an ABC News review of documents and records....

Moreno, 36, has used "multiple aliases," including "Jeffrey Escalante," Christopher Hassig, heading the investigation for the Houston Police Department, told reporters Monday. Although it appears she has gone by "both male and female names" in the past, investigators' interviews and documents connected to her life so far show Moreno "has been identified this entire time as female," Hassig said....

"She is a diagnosed schizophrenic and [Child Protective Services] has told her that she cannot have a gun," he said. "I am afraid of her having my address. She has guns and she brags about it while having my son in the car." [said Moreno's ex-husband Enrique Carranza]....

In January 2020, Moreno "pulled an unlocked and loaded gun from underneath a seat in the car and pointed it at the head" of Carranza, "only hours after a first unlocked and loaded handgun was found" by their then-3-year-old son "in his own diaper bag," according to the ex-mother-in-law's affidavit....

The mother-in-law's affidavit also suggests that Moreno should not have been able to own a gun, claiming that under an alias, Moreno had been under involuntary psychiatric commitment at least four times....

Her son "has been reticent to file the criminal charges against his wife; now his former wife because, as she is not a US citizen," the mother-in-law's affidavit said, and "as she already has had criminal convictions, she would likely be deported if convicted of the 3rd degree felony that stems from filing a fraudulent birth certificate....

Among her charges are an Aug. 2009 assault, for which she was sentenced to 180 days in Harris County Jail for kicking a detention officer; a May 2010 charge for forgery, for which she was sentenced to two days in Harris County Jail for trying to use a counterfeit $100 bill; a Nov. 2010 charge for theft, for which she was sentenced to 30 days in Harris County Jail for stealing hats and makeup; a Dec. 2010 charge for evading arrest, for which she was sentenced to 75 days in Harris County Jail; and a June 2022 charge for unlawful carrying of a weapon, which is still an active case.
So, yeah. Not exactly the poster child of "Republican ultra-MAGA" that the left probably wanted. And also yeah: there is no way the rifle she used at Lakewood Church was legally obtained.

Re: Lakewood Church

And extreme liberal Dora the Explorer may almost instantly regret her accusation of a possible hate crime because--oops!--the shooter seems to have come from the wrong political side of the spectrum. May not fit the "racist ultra-MAGA" imagining after all...

Lakewood Church shooter had pro-Palestinian message written on gun, sources tell ABC News
https://abc13.com/lakewood-church-shoot ... /14414345/
A pro-Palestinian message was written on the gun used by a woman accused of firing rounds at Joel Osteen's Lakewood Church on Sunday, two sources briefed on the preliminary investigation told ABC News....

Detectives believe as many as 12 shots were fired, and investigators are actively reviewing a history of arrests they believe the suspect has on her record....

Houston police said the woman, who had a 5-year-old boy with her, walked inside Lakewood Church at 1:53 p.m. Sunday, wearing a trench coat and armed with a long rifle. She reportedly started shooting immediately.

A Houston police officer and a TABC agent who were working off-duty inside the church quickly returned fire, killing the woman.

As the woman went down, officers reported that she threatened to have a bomb. Officers with the bomb squad searched her car and backpack and found no explosives.

Re: Lakewood Church

Supposedly almost 2,000 people were present. If true, leads me to believe the female shooter got off no more than one or two rounds before being put down. She was wearing a trench coat and evidently claimed she also had a bomb. No explosives were subsequently found.

It seems uncertain as of now whether she shot the 5-year-old that was with her, or whether the child was hit by fire from the off-duty officers.

Judge Lina "Dora the Explorer" Hidalgo announced that she wants the incident investigated as a hate crime. Her only basis for this seems to be that the shots were fired before the start of the day's Spanish-language services.
