"The pastor of a Kissimmee church shot and critically wounded an employee ..."

"Praise the Lord and pass the ammunition!"

[Diana in Wisconsin]

Aim small, miss small. :)

That’s why it’s almost always a good idea to bring in security guards in such a situation.

You packin’ heat?

Only "the sword of the Spirit, which is the word of God" (Ephesians 6:17). "For the weapons of our warfare are not of the flesh but have divine power to destroy strongholds" (2 Corinthians 10:4).

This is a sad situation, but may give an indication of why the employee was being terminated.

[Jimmy Valentine]

This is what they mean when they speak of “the church militant”

[Old Sarge]

So did the preacher fire first, or did he return fire?

Sounds to me like he was defending himself.

[PJ-Comix]

So you’re packin’ Peacemakers ‘73?

[Mason]

Now THAT’S an HR department!

[stansblugrassgrl]

Works for me. ;-)

***”Praise the Lord and pass the ammunition!” ***

I was just listening to that WWII song on CD last night! It would not go over today! Not PC!

Psst! Study the Bible of Self Defense by the Right Reverend Fairbairn.

Don’t forget “if you have a purse, take it, and also a bag; and if you don’t have a sword, sell your cloak and buy one.” Just as we’re expected to provide for our own _physical_ food, shelter, etc we’re also expected to provide for our own _physical_ defensive tools.

Well that’s a first. Never heard of that happening

[RushIsMyTeddyBear]

I can remember my dad firing an employee after he found out the guy was running around bragging he was going to rape my cousin. Daddy called him in his office, opened up the drawer, pulled out his revolver and put it on the desk. Told the guy he better never see his @ss around town again. Never saw him again. The end.

So, who is going to clean up that mess??
