DETROIT (AP) - A retired police officer-turned-pastor shot and wounded a man who broke into his Detroit church, police said Monday.
Lawrence Adams went to Westside Bible Church on Sunday evening and found the intruder inside the building, said Detroit police Sgt. Eren Stephens. The man began swinging an object at the retired police lieutenant, who pulled out a handgun and shot him in the abdomen, he said.

“This is why anti freedom types do not want people carrying guns in church.”
Partially, they see churches as low hanging fruit for the incremental attack on our rights. They care nothing for the thief that was shot. They only care for government power.
Why would you want to carry a gun in church, its Gods house? /sarc

Interesting that the security company calls the pastor, not the police...Good for him.

Gulping one down now, then spending the day in Clinton county. A red county. Should be a nice day!
