is an article about "show of support for the Second Amendment
and First Amendment" via an "open-carry service".
"New Bethel [...] church in Louisville, Kentucky [...] invited

Why unloaded? Doesn't that defeat the whole idea? Or are they worried about
the stained glass windows? d8-)

Guns and religion,
we live a long way from anywhere, just the way we like it,
* Many yrs ago Jehovas whitnesses called to convert us.
* We asked them politely to go on their way.
* They came again on a sunday at midday just as we were sitting down to
a meal.
* we said in no uncertain terms NOT to come again, if they did they
would regret it.
* Yes, they came once more a month or so later.
* I called my wife in a very loud voice to get the 12 bore off the
mantlepiece. I then gave them 20 secs to get up our private road, some
200yds long , before I blew their ffing heads off.
They didnt hang about.

A couple of months ago *2 elderly ladies called where I was working, and
asked where the home owner was.
* i said out working.
* Can i pass a message? I said?
* no they said they would call again.
* I said are you JW'S yes they said, .
* I replied that they better not come there again as this person is a
difficult soul and they would regret it.
* They then replied that they were threatened with a gun out this way
many yrs ago. .
I replied
* That was me!!.
They're devils for punishment.

Using that logic, I would assume that you then approve if JW would
choose to use guns to persuade nonbelievers to convert?

In my experience, showing respect for anyone's religious beliefs
brings desired results.
