I have counseled many Churches on this. I advise them to have strong a security force . I am not talking about an “off duty” officer. I am talking about military trained members in a militia that trains and is heavily armed with legal semi auto ,223 and .308 . I am serious as a heart attack. They need front, back and door security NOW!! If they don’t have that — STAT HOME!!
I’ve been thinking we should start up state militias again. Police and military can’t be everywhere at once in this vast country.
We can also effectively start hardening soft targets, even if just a little, by getting rid of gun-free zones.
