So, a pastor is calling for an open carry event at his church in Ky. According to his words
"This is for anybody that believes in second amendment rights. And that is the buttress to first amendment rights," said Pagano.
Sounds great until you get to the details
People can come into the church wearing their gun as long as the weapon is unloaded and in a secure holster.
Sorry pastor, but this is nothing short of a publicity stunt then. You are telling the world that you don't trust people to carry loaded firearms. Now, I don't actually know the position of the church that I go to on firearms. It's not a discussed topic, there aren't any signs, and politics are left out of the sermons. The funny thing is it doesn't matter if they trust me or not to carry to service because they have no idea if I am or not. So far, I've not massacred anyone chewing gum too loudly in the pew behind me, so I think any fears would be unfounded anyway.
But to say "You can come here so long as the weapon is unloaded" is no different than saying "You can't come here with your weapon at all".
Not impressed.
