Shot FRC guard: God said don't kill attacker

The Family Research Council security agent shot by an attacker enraged with the conservative policy group’s opposition to same-sex marriage said he was urged by God to let the assailant live, a message he listened to.

Tony Perkins, president of FRC, told Secrets Monday that unarmed building manager and part-time guard Leo Johnson heard God’s voice while he was struggling with shooter Floyd Lee Corkins, who volunteered at a gay-rights group. Perkins said Johnson would have been justified in shooting back at his assailant, but God stepped in.
