An armed society is a polite society. Good guys with guns make for a wonderful, loving community of goodhearted souls. Most of us (including the preacher) at our church of Christ congregation are armed at Sunday School and for our thrice-weekly Worship services. Praise God and pass the ammunition! The Good Lord takes care of those who take care of themselves.
