Decatur native Harrison Butker donates jersey to family of victim killed in Chiefs parade shooting

The family of a Kansas City DJ and Chiefs fan who was killed during a shooting at the Super Bowl parade had one request for her funeral: they wanted her to be buried with a jersey of her favorite player.

He stepped up and delivered.

Decatur native and Georgia Tech alum Harrison Butker donated a jersey to the family of Lisa Lopez-Galvan. Channel 2′s ABC affiliate KMBC reports that she was wearing her Butker jersey during the parade when she was shot.

Butker released the following statement to Kansas City media outlets, saying his shared faith with Lopez-Galvan makes it personal for him.

“My wife Isabelle and I are heartbroken by the murder of Lisa due to degenerate violence. Murder is a sin that cries out to God for vengeance and I pray the men involved in this tragedy will be brought to justice. Hearing that she was a fan of my outspokenness for our shared Catholic Faith makes this even more personal. I am honored to provide a jersey to the family for her to wear. While the family is mourning their loss and grappling with their numerous injuries, I will continue to pray for their healing and the repose of Lisa’s soul.”.  .  .

If a political party does not have its foundation in the determination to advance a cause that is right and that is moral, then it is not a political party; it is merely a conspiracy to seize power.

  • That is the problem with everything. They try and make it better without realizing the old is fine.

  • I was a "conspiracy theorist". Now I'm just right.

Seventeen Techniques for Truth Suppression

Of all tyrannies, a tyranny sincerely exercised for the good of its victims may be the most oppressive. It would be better to live under robber barons than under omnipotent moral busybodies. The robber baron's cruelty may sometimes sleep, his cupidity may at some point be satiated; but those who torment us for our own good will torment us without end for they do so with the approval of their own conscience.
