There were just a couple of photos from the attack (not gory, but real) with the pews blown apart from the grenades. 11 killed and 50+ injured, and it surely would have been more had his returning fire not driven off the attackers. Some people might think this could never happen here, but during the past couple of weeks there was a minister that had a bomb placed on his doorstep in a pink gift bag (he has two small children). I don't know if the attack was random, or pointed, but there is no limit to what terrorists will do.
