At Crosspointe Church, a non-denominational church in Fayetteville, North Carolina, volunteers with black shirts and concealed weapons patrol the parking lot and stand unobtrusively in the margins during services and church activities.
They are called the Watchmen, a security team put together by pastor Tracy Pounders and his family. The presence of armed security in a place of worship is an unsettling dissonance for many, but at Crosspointe they are part of the larger ministry, and their origins are distinctly personal. |

"If America’s gun owners claim they are responsible, then they should prove their responsibility by accepting gun registration laws like New Zealand.”
Have you ever read anything MORE ridiculous in your LIFE?
Translation: If Americans want to prove that they are responsible enough to be free, they should give up their freedom to prove that they are responsible.
It's appropriate that they call themselves Kiwis, because that concept is the most bird-brained thing I've ever heard. |

TO REMEMBER |
| For, in principle, there is no difference between a law prohibiting the wearing of concealed arms, and a law forbidding the wearing such as are exposed; and if the former be unconstitutional, the latter must be so likewise. But it should not be forgotten, that it is not only a part of the right that is secured by the constitution; it is the right entire and complete, as it existed at the adoption of the constitution; and if any portion of that right be impaired, immaterial how small the part may be, and immaterial the order of time at which it be done, it is equally forbidden by the constitution. [Bliss vs. Commonwealth, 12 Ky. (2 Litt.) 90, at 92, and 93, 13 Am. Dec. 251 (1822) |
