Two signs outside two metro-area churches display very different messages.
Pastor Tom Vineyard, from Higher Plain Baptist Church, and the Rev. Lori Walke, of Mayflower Congregational UCC, have different views on a new gun law that goes into effect Thursday.
"It saves lives," Vineyard said.
"More guns make places more dangerous," Walke said.
House Bill 2632 adds "places of worship" to the list of places where Oklahomans would have criminal and civil immunity if they used deadly force as a result of self defense -- like in the case of a potential mass shooting. |

The 'no guns' people should shut up and go away.
After all, 'no guns' has worked so WELL, right? |

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]. |
