Absolutely this is peak hypocrisy at its finest. The "little" people don't need protection but the "big" people do. Really it all boils down to corporate risk management and the liability risk imposed by allowing it on their worship properties given the high probability of nutty fundy's doing nutty irresponsible things.Blashyrkh wrote:So I just wrote a letter to my area president calling the church out for banning concealed firearms on church property. My two main points of contention were 1.The church leadership is quite hypocritical in building a firearms training facility for their own private guards yet forbid the membership from having the same ability. 2.There have been four members shot while at church in the past few years yet no threats to the leadership. Therefore the membership has a greater need for personal protection. Honestly I do not attend church but I find the leadership to be the epitomy of hypocritical on this issue.
Now if the church were to provide security professionals to every congregation I could possibly let them off the hook, but they won't so your argument is quite valid.
In this world there are certain things that may be worth the risk in civilly disobeying and keeping quiet about it.
