Another deranged killer has shattered the peace of a house of God, gunning down innocent children during morning prayers. On Tuesday, 27-year-old Robin Westman opened fire on worshippers at Annunciation Catholic Church in Minneapolis, killing an 8-year-old and 10-year-old before taking her own life. Seventeen others were wounded, including 14 children who were simply trying to start their school day with faith and prayer.
The FBI is now calling this a possible act of domestic terrorism, and the evidence shows exactly why. Westman left behind disturbing notebooks filled with hate-filled rantings against Israel and references to other mass shooters. She had an obsession with school violence and even drew detailed plans of the church interior, proving this was no random act of madness.
What makes this even more sickening is the twisted ideology the shooter embraced. Among her belongings was a sticker combining an LGBTQ flag with a gun and the words “defend equality.” This shows how far-left extremism and identity politics can warp vulnerable minds into instruments of pure evil.
The heroic staff at Annunciation Catholic School moved quickly to protect children, getting them under pews within seconds of the first shots. These teachers and church workers are the real heroes, putting their lives on the line while the shooter fired dozens of rounds through beautiful stained glass windows. Their quick thinking saved countless young lives that Tuesday morning.
Once again, we see the complete failure of our mental health system and the dangerous radicalization happening in our communities. This shooter legally purchased three weapons recently, showing how someone can slip through every crack in the system. The warning signs were there in her disturbing online presence, yet nobody stopped her.
Our children should be safe in school and in church, but evil finds a way to strike at the most innocent among us. These two precious souls were taken from their families while simply trying to worship God and get an education. Every parent in America is asking how we protect our kids from monsters like this.
The Pope has sent his condolences to the Minneapolis community, and prayers are pouring in from across the nation. But prayers alone will not stop the next attack from happening. We need real security measures in our schools and churches, not more empty promises from politicians.
This tragedy shows us that evil is real and it targets what we hold most dear. We must stand together as Americans to protect our children, defend our faith, and reject the poisonous ideologies that create killers like Robin Westman. The families of these two beautiful children deserve justice, and our nation deserves leaders who will actually keep us safe.
