I talked to my pastor about carrying in church since it's legal here and he encourages me to carry. He said if anyone says anything about it to send them to him and he will handle it.

More ammo to help convince church leaders and the general public that guns in places of worship can save lives:

ETA: The link worked fine last night but not now:
Just go to Wiki & type in Jeanne Assam.
The standard disclaimer: Wiki's not perfect but has some quality control ...yadda, yadda, blah, blah...
Quick summary: One whacko killer , 2 seperate incidents , dates , and locations . 4 victims KIA , 5 WIA . The murdering was stopped when a female church volunteer with a CCW counterattacked the murderer as he closed in on the main body of the congregation...
The page includes over 2 dozen hot links.
There is a hot link to an edited terrain walk style debreifing of the incident on georgiapackingdot.com.
Run a search for Jeanne Assam.

I agree 100% on concealed.
I just mentioned to my wife the reason I wasn't in "The Strangers" was because it would have been far too short if I were.

You would be surprised how many churchs are asking some of their members to carry due to the shit that's goig on lately.
My church, my Father's church, and one of my buddies in Minn, all of our churchs have asked for members, a special group of ex military and leo backgrounds that have their ccl, to carry and sit spreadout throughout the church.

My old grandpa said to me, “Son, there comes a time in every mans life when he stops bustin’ knuckles and starts bustin’ caps and usually it’s when he becomes too old to take an ass whoopin’.”
I don’t carry a gun to kill people. I carry a gun to keep from being killed.
I don’t carry a gun to scare people. I carry a gun because sometimes this world can be a scary place.
I don’t carry a gun because I’m paranoid. I carry a gun because there are real threats in the world.
I don’t carry a gun because I’m evil. I carry a gun because I have lived long enough to see the evil in the world.
I don’t carry a gun because I hate the government. I carry a gun because I understand the limitations of government.
I don’t carry a gun because I’m angry. I carry a gun so that I don’t have to spend the rest of my life hating myself for failing to be prepared.
I don’t carry a gun because I want to shoot someone. I carry a gun because I want to die at a ripe old age in my bed, and not on a sidewalk somewhere tomorrow afternoon.
I don’t carry a gun because I’m a cowboy. I carry a gun because, when I die and go to heaven, I want to be a cowboy.
I don’t carry a gun to make me feel like a man. I carry a gun because men know how to take care of themselves and the ones they love.
I don’t carry a gun because I feel inadequate. I carry a gun because unarmed and facing three armed thugs, I am inadequate.
I don’t carry a gun because I love it. I carry a gun because I love life and the people who make it meaningful to me.
Police Protection is an oxymoron. Free citizens must protect themselves. Police do not protect you from crime, they usually just investigate the crime after it happens and then call someone in to clean up the mess.
Personally, I carry a gun because I’m too young to die and too old to take an ass whoopin’.
