Wife: my son and I were talking about tornadoes and I mentioned something about him maybe being a tornado hunter someday. I asked him, “What do you do with tornadoes if you’re hunting them? Are you trying to kill them or something?”
He immediately said that he would “shoot them with a Canon.”
Sounds like a risk of photography
I have no conviction about using a camera to shoot a tornado? Do you? Or just what your church asks of you?
I have a general objection to photography, although many in church would be “softer” about it.
Note that the standard plain position is to reject photography to the point of not getting photo IDs.
Goshen police claim they have two suspects in custody, but a third perpetrator is still at large. The public is warned not to make contact with the suspect.

GOSHEN, IN
Three young Mennonites are in critical condition this weekend after a random drive-by shunning at a local Wal-Mart.
“We’re not yet sure what prompted the shunning,” said Police Chief Dennis Dueck. “We think it may have been a rival Mennonite church. Maybe some Russian Mennonites from out of town.”
Early reports indicate the shunners were in close proximity of their victims in the vegetable aisle, when one of the victims asked for help reaching the Idaho russet potatoes. The shunner simply turned the other way and refused to acknowledge the request. He was then joined by two other shunners who walked right past the victims as if they weren’t even there.
“It was the most brutal attack we’ve seen here in a long time,” said the officer. “Our hopes and prayers go out to the victims. We hope their feelings will fully recover.”
Goshen police claim they have two suspects in custody, but a third perpetrator is still at large. The public is warned not to make contact with the suspect, as he is considered armed with a really dangerous frowny face.

I have found it interesting how upset some people were at Times naming Trump 'person of the year'. I wonder what their reaction will be when they discover he has been elected the next president of the USA.
^^too funny.
