Dem Strategist: ‘Cannot Imagine Horror That Could’ve Occurred’ if Charlston Churchgoers Were Armed
The Blaze ^ | 06/20/2015 | Jason Howerton

Longtime Democratic strategist Bob Shrum said on MSNBC Friday that he “cannot imagine the horror that could’ve unfolded” if churchgoers were armed during the recent massacre in Charleston, South Carolina.

Nine people were slaughtered on Wednesday night after suspected gunman Dylann Roof allegedly opened fire in the historically black church. Only three people survived, including a grandmother who played dead and laid on top of her granddaughter to protect her.

Roof reportedly had time to reload his gun several times.

“I cannot imagine the horror that could’ve occurred if people were sitting around with concealed weapons, this thing started and you had a full-scale gunfight,” Shrum said Friday. “You might not even have three survivors.”

He went on to say that “this is going to be a big issue” in the 2016 Democratic primaries. Watch the video via MSNBC:

That is the absolute key. Why do we tell good people they can’t protest themselves. That is the tragedy in Charleston.
At my Church we have 3 armed ushers and 2 semi auto .223 in a safe with trained ex Marines. We practice and we will kill you dead. The Wahabbis will hit your churches . They will lock the doors and shoot you like pigs. You better be ready.

Several years ago there was an attack upon an Evangelical church somewhere in TX (I believe). However, they had a female in the audience who was a PAID private security person. As soon as the shooter raised their weapon .. she took them out.

ONE SHOT; ONE DEAD SHOOTER.

It was in Colorado, not Texas.

Bob Shrum is seriously lacking in man skills. He sounds like a liberal girl.

And so, where do man skills come from. God.

A church is a house of God. Might make sense to listen to God about it, no?

My word, what breathtaking stupidity. Yeah right, I guess the “horror” would be that the stupid racist kid would have been shot down forthwith and HE would be dead, and NOT nine innocent people. What would be the “horror” in that?

Democrats are despicable creatures. They’d sell their grandchildren to win an election.

Hoplophobe propaganda.

Armed churchgoers could have interrupted the shooter’s unopposed assault. The knowledge that someone might actually shoot back has, according to Lott’s studies, discouraged felonious mayhem from conception. Lott and Landed study on Multiple Victim Shootings shows that (liberalized/shall issue) CCW was the only factor that had any impact on reduction.

Typical LIEberal anti-gun rant!

One wonders how many folks will be carrying in church tomorrow?

“The mad man would have been shot and few or no others injured.”

That’s the horror he’s thinking about - that people might learn that they can’t depend upon the statists for their own protection but they can rely upon themselves.

Exactly! In my church, we were strategically seated in order to have an over-all view of what was going on.

I only knew of one person who had a weapon .. and he was legally allowed to carry at all times because he was a working Detective. To me, it was comforting to always see him there.

It is a specific case of a generality that we should not be blaming the material world for matters that are within the realm of God and demons.

(Which also makes the War On Drugs, in its present form [rather than a War on Abuse], look foolish.)

Oh that’s great .. I wasn’t sure .. I searched a few places, but I couldn’t find out the state.

Thanks.
