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 |
Besides the advantage of being armed, which the Americans possess over the people of almost every other nation, the existence of subordinate governments, to which the people are attached, and by which the militia officers are appointed, forms a barrier against the enterprises of ambition, more insurmountable than any which a simple government of any form can admit of. Notwithstanding the military establishments in the several kingdoms of Europe, which are carried as far as the public resources will bear, the governments are afraid to trust the people with arms. — James Madison, The Federalist Papers, No. 46 |
