Why? Why do you automatically assume people in church are armed?

“Why do you automatically assume people in church are armed?”

That would be my assumption. Texas. Baptist Church. I would HOPE half of the congregation would have weapons in their pockets and/or purses. In my Baptist church I hope that’s the case.

Why not, if they have a CCW? Although there may be a law in Texas that allows guns to be banned or even forbids guns in churches. Not sure.

I am sympathetic to the notion that a house of worship should be a sanctuary free from weapons. Although these days, that appears merely an aspiration.
