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 |
I do believe that where there is a choice only between cowardice and violence, I would advise violence. Thus when my eldest son asked me what he should have done had he been present when I was almost fatally assaulted in 1908 [by an Indian extremist opposed to Gandhi's agreement with Smuts], whether he should have run away and seen me killed or whether he should have used his physical force which he could and wanted to use, and defend me, I told him it was his duty to defend me even by using violence. Hence it was that I took part in the Boer War, the so-called Zulu Rebellion and [World War I]. Hence also do I advocate training in arms for those who believe in the method of violence. I would rather have India resort to arms in order to defend her honor than that she should in a cowardly manner become or remain a helpless witness to her own dishonor. — Mohandas K. Gandhi, Young India, August 11, 1920 from Fischer, Louis ed.,The Essential Gandhi, 1962 |
