Guns in the pews

[Ringo]

After Pittsburgh, some synagogues are more comfortable with guns in the pews​

I accidently exposed part of my holster one day before Mass. One of our priests saw it. He was very positive about my concealed carrying. I know of another member of the parish who also CCs. She is one of the leading members of the parish. Outside of that priest and our spouses, no one else knows that we carry. There could be other CCers in the congregation. I am not interested in knowing who they might be.
We live in a suburb of Chicago outside of the Chicago Archdiocese. Fortunately when Illinois passed CC, there was no mention in the bill concerning carrying in houses of worship.

Our church (non-denominational) has armed security every service, and at least 20% of our members conceal carry, including my wife. I'm pretty sure the pastor does too.

Every day carry does not take Sunday's off. :yes2: I also, and my wife rolls her eyes on this, sit in an area that is more advantageous to my POA to where I think the attack would come from and has the most room for myself and family to seek cover. More of a training and IDPA thing that I hope and pray I never have to use.
