Damn! That is bad. If there was a law in the books prohibiting the carry of guns in church…
Missouri Revised Statutes
Chapter 571
Weapons Offenses
Section 571.107.1
Permit does not authorize concealed firearms, where–penalty for violation.
(14) Any church or other place of religious worship without the consent of the minister or person or persons representing the religious organization that exercises control over the place of religious worship.
Wait, you mean there was a law ? But how did that happen then? A criminal did not obey the law?
When there isn’t a law and something like this happens, the anti gunners demand more laws. When there is a law and it doesn’t prevent a shooting, the anti gunners demand more laws. When anti gunners get more laws passed, they still demand more laws to “prevent” something that hasn’t happened.
And they wonder why we won’t yield an inch anymore? That lesson was learned after the 94 AWB. They don’t want compromise, they want to outlaw the right to self defense.
The only thing that will maybe accomplish what they want is population imprisonment.
Well, only for those who aren’t part of their “population”.
But, “Gun Free Zone”! Can’t happen!
