"This is the 'take your gun to church' bill," said state Rep. Doug McKillip (D-Athens), who voted against the legislation.
That's the point, you dolt!

Two words for you, Doug ol' buddy ol' pal:
Matthew Murray.
That was the New Life Church shooter. Stopped by a civilian with a carry permit.
He killed two girls and wounded their daddy in the parking lot.

Most churches in MN forbid carrying in/on their premises.
I just don’t tell or “print”.
Simple....

Generally Churches may post that firearms are off limits.
Many just ignore the rule but it is difficult to conceal when people are hugging you.

Took the words outa my mouth.
It has always galled me that I can't carry where I may need it the most -- sporting events, restaurants, church . . .
Luby's Cafeteria comes to mind too.

My church congregation includes several active and retired LEO’s. I not only hope, but EXPECT that they are carrying.
According to Romans 13 they are just as much ministers as those occupying the pulpit.
Thank God.

Great, now an open carry right would be nice as well.
Sad day in America when Churches become targets for the deranged, but it is what is, a fallen world eh?

Thanks be to God ! Now I can worry much less about where I am with my gun. If I walk into a Chilis then I wont be arrested.
GOD BLESS Our wise leaders in Georgia !!!

It appears, that the former democrat scumbags, who changed their stripes to become instant "republicans" a while back, are up to their silly-ass political games again - and all at the expense of the law-abiding citizens of Georgia.
I'm sure much of this is at the bequest of our POS "republican" governor (another democrat turd who flipped when it was politically expedient), who seems to be more interested in placating wealthy businessmen, than protecting and expanding the limits of freedom and Constitutional rights of Georgia citizens.

I fail to understand the point of the law or the article.
The right of self-defense is inherent.

On the frontier of the late 1700s, it was common to take your “gun” to church, “...with each man setting them in a corner till after meeting.”
