KNOXVILLE, Tennessee (CNN) -- The suspect in a fatal shooting at a
Knoxville church Sunday was motivated by frustration over being unable to obtain a job and hatred for the liberal movement, police said Monday. Jim Adkisson, 58, was charged with first-degree murder after Sunday's shooting at the Knoxville church. Jim Adkisson, 58, was charged with first-degree murder after Sunday's shooting at the Knoxville church. Authorities recovered a four-page letter in which the suspect, Jim Adkisson, described his feelings and motives, police said. Adkisson, 58, of Powell, Tennessee, has been charged with one count of first-degree murder in the shootings at Tennessee Valley Unitarian Universalist Church. The gunman killed two adults and wounded seven others before being overpowered by congregants, authorities said. The case is being investigated as a hate crime, police said. "It appears that what brought him to this horrible event was his lack of being able to obtain a job, his frustration over that, and his stated hatred for the liberal movement," Knoxville Police Chief Sterling Owen IV told reporters on Monday. Authorities also discovered a letter from the state government telling Adkisson he was having his food stamps reduced or eliminated, police said. "He did express that frustration, that the liberal movement was getting more jobs," Owen said. "And he felt like he was being kept out of the loop because of his age." - - - - - - - - - - |

I'm sure some are, since "gayness" is not connected to any particular religion. Hell, there probably are some white southern baptists who actually follow the teachings of jesus. They're out there somewhere. |
