While I don't know if it's really necessary to bring a holstered pistol to church, it is her right and I salute this lady!

 

[waggy]

ok why did they arrest her? no reason? ok good for her for sueing them.

Is the church not allowed to make a "no guns allowed" rule?

Edit: My mistake. Didn't read the article.

Crime happens everywhere...think about it, she could have prevented a molestation!

I'd bring my CCW into a church. I'm not religious so there's no stipulation there, and it's legal. I carry it everywhere else where legal, why not?

It's not about being necessary...

What would Jesus do?

What would Jesus do?

Shut down virtually every church on the face of the planet.

I don't know. But I'm sure he wouldn't carry a gun to church.

I'm betting he wouldn't carry a gun ever.

maybe if Jesus had a gun he could have stopped those Romans from nailing him to the cross

"Pilot, Say ello to my lil friend!"

Breaking News! Jesus goes postal, kills Roman Guards before turning the gun on himself.

Yeah, their gun education program - "guns are evil."

Yea several people got arrested in VA for open carry on public areas. Problem is its legal to do so. They also sued and got soem cash out of it.

So if you have a gun and dumb idiots running your town, you to might be able to get a "tax rebate" this year.

Jesus has the power of God, he'll just smite you with his mind.

This is why concealed carry is better than open carry. Needless panic and drama ensues when people can see the gun.

 

[nick1985]

Wrongfully arrested. Good for her

People fear what they do not understand.

I'm not sure if this is good or bad publicity for us, but good for her either way

When a rational person sees somebody with a gun holstered the normal and correct action is "What gun and do you like it?". Not OMG! GUN! It's going to jump out and kill somebody like in the movies!

I understand guns just fine and I'd prefer that if you carry that you keep it concealed.

I hope she learned a valuable life lesson and will discontinue her destructive behavior of attending church.
