Who Would Jesus Shoot?

Praise Jesus and pass the ammunition.

The Arkansas House on Wednesday approved a bill allowing concealed handguns in churches, despite hearing arguments that lawmakers should put their faith in God, not guns.

The bill, which passed on a 57-42 vote and now heads to the Senate, removes churches and other houses of worship from the list of places where concealed handguns are banned. Currently, the only private entities where concealed weapons are banned are churches and bars.

The bill’s sponsor, Rep. Beverly Pyle, R-Cedarville, said she introduced the measure after a series of church shootings across the country. She said it would be up to each individual church whether to allow the concealed guns.

“It is time we changed our concealed-handgun law to allow law-abiding citizens of the state of Arkansas the right to defend themselves and others should a situation happen in one of our churches,” she said.

Blessed is he who comes in the name of the lord because he is heavily armed?
Blessed are the Peace makers for they shall exert superior fire power?

I have to say that I find it ridiculous that there is a law specifically banning guns from churches.

Would Jesus use cop killers in his 9mm or what?

Saves dragging those bulky, clumsy shotguns to weddings all the time and it's better having a sniper in the choral loft any way, doesn't ruin the wedding pictures.

Best man on the grooms side and best shot on the brides side.

Georgia has the same problem, not enough guns in the churchs.
