When Honest Joe told the world how he ran off Corn Pop and his entire gang of straight-razor toting bad dudes using just a chain, maybe (prayerful soul that he is) Honest Joe was referring to a genuine assault Rosary chain.
Yeah, I’ve got about a half-dozen rosaries, and they’ve never hurt anyone.
Prayer beads are violent? Really?
But IF your rosaries and guns get together, all bets are off. As the Atlantic has pointed out, they may go off on a ballistic tangent and hunt down sinners and such all by their selves. Now that would be interesting. Unlike the Atlantic.
A person could choke on them. They're just the right size. And a good size string of prayer beads and a person could strangle another person. They are potentially a weapon. I socially distance myself from someone swinging a prayer beads around.
But MILLIONS will swear that they have HELPED millions!
