For all of those who don't think guns belong in churches or that pastors or church employees be armed.
Since this is a good guy with a gun, it won't be making national news sites. It's good that the pastor had a report already done on the suspects. They haven't decided if he'll be charged or not. Doesn't seem likely.

Detroit pastor shoots, kills hammer-wielding church intruder
Published October 19, 2015 FoxNews.com
A pistol-packing pastor shot and killed a man who was allegedly trying to attack him with a brick on Sunday in the vestibule of a Detroit church, police said.
Cops say Deante Smith, 25, attacked the unidentified pastor and threatened several parishioners of The City of God church with a brick and hammer, FOX2 reported. Police said the attack was not random; the pastor and Smith knew each other and the two have had problems in the past.
“The pastor had had issues with the man before,” Dolunt told the Detroit News. “He had been threatening to do him bodily harm. He walked into the service and went after the pastor with a brick. The pastor pulled out his Glock and fired several shots. I think he hit him four or five times, and the man died.”
“The reality is, things can happen anywhere now,” City Councilman Andre Spivey told the Detroit News. “[Church] is a haven of rest and safety…when you cannot be safe in God’s place of worship, where can you be safe?”
