Archbishop Robert J. Carlson has a message for Missouri lawmakers. You can stand for guns in churches. Or you can stand for religious liberty. But you can’t stand for both. The leader of the Roman Catholic Church in the St. Louis region sent the message to lawmakers last week in a letter that was also signed by the other three Catholic bishops in the state: the Most Rev. James V. Johnston Jr. of Kansas City-St. Joseph, the Most Rev. W. Shawn McKnight of Jefferson City and the Most Rev. Edward M. Rice of the Springfield-Cape Girardeau diocese.

I have a message for Archbishop Robert J. Carlson, Most Rev. James V. Johnston Jr., Most Rev. W. Shawn McKnight, and Most Rev. Edward M. Rice:
First let me state that, as long as there are Muslims in the United States, I WILL be armed when I am in church.
I am a former deputy sheriff, a former police officer, a licensed concealed weapons carrier, a 4th Degree Knight of Columbus, and, possibly, a former Catholic!
Your choice! |

QUOTES
TO REMEMBER |
No kingdom can be secured otherwise than by arming the people. The possession of arms is the distinction between a freeman and a slave. He, who has nothing, and who himself belongs to another, must be defended by him, whose property he is, and needs no arms. But he, who thinks he is his own master, and has what he can call his own, ought to have arms to defend himself, and what he possesses; else he lives precariously, and at discretion. — James Burgh, Political Disquisitions: Or, an Enquiry into Public Errors, Defects, and Abuses [London, 1774-1775]. |
