This one involves a Unitarian church in Knoxville, Tennessee.
The story is still developing, but an apparent right-wing nationalist, unaffiliated with the church, started shooting at random. Currently two are dead, and seven more injured, according to reports I am reading off of Daily Kos and elsewhere.
Mental illness is being ruled out at this time.
My thoughts are with the church and its members.
Update: BBC is naming the Unitarians' gay-friendly liberal positions as a very possible cause of the rampage - something the US-based reports are overlooking.
