re: "New York City councilman Kalman Yeger will introduce a bill this week that requires the city to pay for armed security guards at any house of worship that requests protection."

Well, that's New York City. No one can think about owning a firearm LET ALONE own one ...

Have no fear, the government is here to save the day.

I have no idea how crazy the laws are in NYC. But let’s say that I own a business there. With my permission, couldn’t my employees be armed while working in my store?

If the answer to that question is yes, couldn’t the same apply to worshipers in churches? (If no one has a CCW permit, the weapons would have to be kept locked in the church. But that would be better than nothing.)

More “guns” is not the answer!

More vaccinated, hetero-normative, patriarchal, climate denying, nationalist, white Christian, misogyny IS!

Here's a thought. How about we not let those animals in, in the first place? And, how about we round up and isolate the ones already here?

Anybody, anybody with at least two functioning IQ points knows you don't let rabid dogs into your home where your children sleep.

Apparently, however, America's politicians (former presidents, etc), lack even the above criterion.

Never rely on government to protect or defend you and your family.

Speaking of shootings I wonder if CNN has admitted yet yesterday’s shooters were Trump hating queers?

At least two (that I know of) of the churches that I have been a member of in the last twenty years has Deacons and Elders who were armed. No one knew “exactly” who was armed at anytime, but everybody knew they were there. In actuality, I think all of them were armed all the time, but only God and them know for sure.
