The Archdiocese of Chicago formally announced Monday that firearms are banned on all archdiocese property. In a statement, the archdiocese said they have "...had ta best practice on the presence of firearms for some time and most of our facilities display signage indicating that firearms are prohibited on their premises. Given the times, we thought it would be prudent to issue a policy on firearms as a 'particular law' so there would be absolute clarity on our position."

Open Season! They have not learned their lesson. I am sure the any Antifa with a grudge against Christians will follow the rule of law and not bring a gun to this church. |

So when the inevitable occurs, is the Diocese going to pay all the medical bills, lost wages, and/or funereal expenses for the victims? By banning the exercise of a God-given right, they have assumed liability for all damages which may occur as a result of their stupidity.
How does the idiot Archbishop reconcile the following: It is a sin for a Catholic to miss Mass As long as there are muslims, it is potentially life threatening to attend Mass unarmed. Arms are banned from church property. Under his regime, attending Mass is potentially life threatening.
Archbishop? Archbishop? Anybody? |

QUOTES
TO REMEMBER |
"And how we burned in the camps later, thinking: What would things have been like if every Security operative, when he went out at night to make an arrest, had been uncertain whether he would return alive and had to say good-bye to his family? Or if, during periods of mass arrests, as for example in Leningrad, when they arrested a quarter of the entire city, people had not simply sat there in their lairs, paling in terror at every bang of the downstairs door and at every step on the staircase, but had understood they had nothing left to lose and had boldly set up in the downstairs hall an ambush of half a dozen people with axes, hammers, pokers, or whatever else was at hand? [...] The Organs would very quickly have suffered a shortage of officers and transport and, notwithstanding all of Stalin's thirst, the cursed machine would have ground to a halt!" —Alexander Solzhenitsyn, The Gulag Archipelago (Chapter 1 "Arrest") |
