Carry in Church?

[gnihcraes]

I know a person, who indicated that their church is heavily armed every sunday. They actually have a specific group of people armed, which changes each week. He indicated too that it was just not handguns. They also do drills and extensive training. Anyone that has served in the military or police are part of the "security team".

And I believe this person, not just a story.

Why? Not judging just curious. Credible threat?

Since I'm a godless heathen, not something I'll ever have to worry about. But if I did go, I'd carry.

I know that FoF in the Springs has the same kinda deal also. I also met a TV Preacher that had a rather extensive security detail with him whenever he was out and about.

Again, Matthew J Murray ... shot and killed several people at a YWAM office up in Arvada and then tried to shoot up New Life church with an AR the next day and was interrupted by an armed security volunteer that broke his stride and caused him to eat his own pistol.

I guess I should be more obvious about the link; CLICK HERE=>http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/2007_Co...Life_shootings


Of course there's also this.

I don't carry, because I Dont have a ccw... Yet.

But I do know that atleast 3 people carry! No one has an issue with that at our church!

[Pistol Packing Preacher]

Don't we have a pistol packin preacher here? Yep..

I know several people who carry in church, and while I'm a godless heathen.. I suspect plenty of people who carry do attend, and seeing as how concealed is concealed..

Carry in church?

I preach the Gospel with a side arm on my waist...

Cuz in my little church...

I must defend the flock from wrong doctrine...

And "would-be-killers"

I believe they started protecting themselves because of these situations. It did sound pretty cool though, military operation and training it sounded like. The church is local to the metro area (south) somewhere. I didn't ask.
