Cowboy wisdom we are armed because Democrats are violent

All true.

I am reminded how the average Australian citizen was relatively indifferent about being disarmed by their leftist led government . . . until COVID hit and that same government put COVID vaccine refusers into what amounted to concentration camps until either they complied or the fake crises was declared over.

Many protestors lost EVERYTHING. Now many Australians understand WHY the average American fully supports the Second Amendment now that Australian citizens have effectively been turned into a population of serfs at the perpetual 'mercy' of their not always benevolent government.

We protect our banks better than we protect our children. Why doesn't the "democrat" elite love children as much as they do money? Armed security is needed in banks, but far more in places of worship and education...or at least what used to pass as places of education. Soon armed and armored security will approach mandatory in all public spaces since evil insists on killing the unarmed.

True. There are more Churches attacked in the USA than there are banks robbed at gunpoint.

I am a vet and on a church security team. We had threats made earlier this year, phone calls and texts with pictures of weapons, statements about what was coming etc. The would-be shooter even mentioned taking me out by name. He was an ex-member. Threats to churches are a mandatory reporting event and local LEO's provided additional security until our VBS (his target) was finished. The night our VBS ended a similar attack was carried out in Texas. The guy threating our VBS is now dead, and him and God can work out any punishments needed.

In our case, no attack at our church happened but we have ramped up security and we have had members whine about the new procedures. A few made statements they didn't feel safe in an armed church. I invited them to worship elsewhere. No one is immune from violence and ignoring a threat is an easy way to be a victim.

Not feeling safe in an armed church is a special kind of delusional.

I agree, I had to stop responding before I reminded her, she locked her doors at night, lived in a gated community and worked in a government building with metal detectors and armed officers. I try not and engage Democrats in conversations as they can rarely respond with anything other than insults and emotional arguments, even in church. In the end, as I mentioned, I suggested she find a new church, which she hasn't done.
