Freedom to Insult
Byhenry. . . is a necessary part of free speech. Laura has it right: I dont have much in common with Brigitte Bardot, an elderly French actress, or Pat Condell, a British atheist, or with Kathy Shaidle, Ezra Levant, and Mark Steyn, a partial list of Canadians whose free speech is endangered.

ByhenryGaegan Goddard’s Political Wire reports that John McCain thinks he will be the last candidate to accept federal matching funds. One of the best savings, though small, we could make at the federal level would be to end public financing and also end all of the regulations on fundraising except for transparency.
On the other hand, you had the case in Colorado a while back where an arm security guard shot and killed a murder who had already killed several people at a Christian dorm, and had come to the church to kill more Christians. The fact that someone at the church had a gun saved a lot of lives. I am not necessarily for taking guns to church, but I dont want killers to think of churches as a place they can go to knowing that no one else there will have a gun.
I’m afraid I’m into trusting God on what happens in church. I am aware of the case in Colorado, but personally I choose “no.”
On the other hand, the headline thing was too much fun to resist!
There have been numerous cases of shootings by intruders at churches, notably in Texas a few years back. Even Columbine had an element of anti-faith bias in the shootings as the shooters sought out “jocks and Christians”. Attacks against Christians, Muslim and Jewish places of worship are fairly common.
In a “right to carry” state, the prohibition against state-sanctioned permit holders having their guns when they attend church is nonsense. Is it more permissible for them to have a concealed weapon in a grocery store than in a church?
You know if you have cops among your church membership there’s a definite chance they’re armed even in services. Same with some military.
When you carry concealed, a lot of folk think it’s an all the time thing or useless.
Well, I see my commenters seem to be in support of such a law. Let me just say that neither your comments, nor the fact (which I already knew) that people do carry concealed weapons in church makes me feel more secure.
But the reasons for that would take more time than a comment, and my whole post was a snarky one liner!
