Senator Edward Markey (D-MA) is pushing legislation that could prevent churches around the country from using a “security services unit” comprised of concealed carriers in congregations, parishes, etc.

The bill is the Preventing Private Military Act of 2024, and it is co-sponsored by Senator Laphonza Butler (D-CA)

Protestia noted, “Additionally, if an active shooting situation took place, and the shooter was killed or injured by the church security team, the proposed law would make members of the security team subject to criminal penalties that range from 5 years to life in prison.”

The applicable text of the bill says, “In the case of a violation that results in…bodily injury, the person shall be fined under this title, imprisoned for not more than 5 years, or both; or death, the person shall be fined under this title and imprisoned for any term of years or for life.”

So that crazy transgendered person should have been allowed to shoot up that church in Texas last week

We Need Our Own Homeland !

[txeagle]

The non-compliance will be deafening.

[Salman]

Just another part of of the final push to destroy civilization before the election.

[From The Deer Stand]

More proof that Democrats and Liberals suffer from a mental disease.

[cowboyusa]

Another godless commie added to the helocopter list.

[Steely Tom]

Will that include mosques ?

[RushIsMyTeddyBear]

Yes.

[fwdude]

So much for “separation of church and state.”

> the Preventing Private Military Act of 2024 <

I’ll bet you a dollar the Democrat Party’s private military won’t be covered.

[Red Badger]

Unconstitutional.......................

Very novel way to take out them pesky White Christians, if I may say.

Take away their security as they worship and let transgendered queers like the Lakewood shooter have a field day.

In 2019 in Texas, when some idiot tried to carry out a mass shooting at a church, several other people immediately pulled out their own guns and stopped him.

It’s a good thing that it’s legal for law abiding citizens to carry guns in churches in Texas.

We’ll never know how many lives they saved.

Here’s a video of the incident:

And here’s an article about it from CNN:

Anyone who wants to ban this kind of self defense is evil.

Laphonza. Another crazy colored black woman who hates whites.

[RasterMaster]

Democrats LOVE soft targets for their MK Ultra trans-triggered drones to shoot up.

[V_TWIN]

I certainly hope mosques will be included

[Dead Corpse]

A well regulated militia...

Legislators attempting to pass laws like this are actively violating their oaths of office, violating Federal civil rights laws, and are actively giving “aid and comfort” to our Nations enemies.

They need to start paying a PERSONAL price for this.

Democrat riding in limo speaking candidly to two large, armed security guards and the armed limo driver on the way from the secured US Capitol to the Dem’s gated mansion:
“Guns are just so messy and awful. Those poor victims of gun violence at the football celebration and those schools. Just terrible. I’m going to vote to take all the guns away from people out there.”

[hanamizu]

So how does a church’s security team affect interstate commerce? Which enumerated power is this legislation based on?

[V_TWIN]

“their MK Ultra trans-triggered drones”

I used to think that was delusional paranoid conspiracy theory BS.........used to
