Gun traces have no statistical significance about whether a gun shop follows the law.

"To buttress its case, Heeding God's Call cited a 2004 study that identified the 120 gun dealers in America - out of 80,000 registered sellers - that had each sold at least 200 guns traced to crimes."
If my math is correct that means 0.015% of all REGISTERED gun sellers in the US were allegedly involved in selling guns to criminals.
Let me repeat that: 0.015%
Wow, great statistic to pull out in a debate. That statistic does nothing but prove that Heeding God's Call arguments are fallacious and invalid.

A Preacher/Pastor should himself be armed. How better to help protect ones flock from wolves?

The people that don’t like guns, just don’t like guns. Any number they can pull out of the air is an excuse for them to exercise their 1st Amendment rights. As stupid as it seems for them to use the above inconsequential statistics, they would even sound stupider saying the truth: “We don’t want anyone to have guns, because we are afraid of and don’t like guns, and we are against your 2nd amendment rights because we are afraid of and just don’t like guns.”
These Mennonites are probably real good folks, lead by a good fellow that is a bit paranoid, and they don’t realize that atheism (or religious persecution) awaits them if they get rid of the 2nd amendment and then the 1st is lost. The news for them is “Pacifism is NOT a component of freedom, religious or otherwise.”

Ah, where did God say that you shouldn't defend yourself, protect your life that the lives of your family, friends, neighbors and countrymen? When did He say that?
If you want to see what Jewish Law was at the time Jesus was alive, check out Jews for the Protection of Firearms Ownership website - JPFO.org
And it wasn't to disarm yourself against assorted thugs, gangster, criminals and tin-horn despots. That's how I would talk with these misinformed Christians.
