This is the traditional Catholic Church in downtown Phoenix (FSSP).

I’ve attended mass there while visiting Phoenix.
This is shocking and horrifying. What a terrible sacrilege.

Phoenix has become one of dangerous cities in the US. When are Americans going to stand up and take our country back?

We are right on track to becoming a large city in a third world nation. This is what you hear about Columbia or some African country.
TY Obama.

Didn’t they just drop a bunch of illegals in Phoenix?

Yup, we may find these are a couple of 17-year old "kids".

I am willing to bet that the church was a gun free zone.
Gun free zones give violent criminals peace of mind knowing that their victims will not shoot back.

This was a night time break-in, and into the attached recory, not the church proper. I haven't seen any anti-gun signs on any Catholic church, though I tend to go to more conservatively oriented churches. I have seen armed church-goers, mainly police in uniform but also private security guards in inner city churches in New Haven and Rockford, IL.
Most priests, including traditional ones, do not personally carry, but that comes from an impulse unrelated to the 2nd Amendment. Traditional priests in the U.S. don't often have an animus against law-abiding gun carriers.

No church I have ever been to has “no guns” signs. And I’ve been to lots of churches.

YOU ARE WRONG!
You don’t advance the cause by jumping to conclusions.
Missing a sign out front that reads “Open Carry Welcome Here” does not establish a “Gun Free Zone”.
