Personally with an attitude like yours I would rather not rely on you to protect me or my family. So I will kindly decline your offer. I will say again that my views are my own and that's all. Sorry if that gets you panties all bunched up. Someone commented above about laws allowing criminals to legally carry. Seriously? Since when would that matter? They carry anyway. The only people that suffer from more restrictions are law abiding citizens. But, I am done here. I really enjoy this sight and reading the topics that all you post. So I will let this whole thing go. Difference of opinion that's all.

Vidrine, I hate to say it, but I don't think you'll ever get it. And you are definitely wrong, I am fully authorized to tell you that you cannot carry in OUR church. Like I said, PM me, I'll give you the address, see you Sunday morning, bring bail money. How about the bouncers in the bar you frequent, they don't own the bar, yet they can throw you out, how can that be? I'm done trying to explain to you, PM me, see ya Sunday, I'll prove it to you.
In fact, I am I the process of training a security team in Lafayette at our Sister Church. Not a single member OWNS the church. Let me get done with their training, you won't even have to travel to prove your point. Just let me know when you're ready:) How about the off duty deputies paid by some churches to do security, they don't own the church either, challenge them and see where you end up. Your argument does not have any credence to it.

Some very good advice. Sine some want to challenge the legality of Church Security Team authority, you might want to brush up on Louisiana Law. Here's a supplier of Civil and Criminal Law books that are state specific. You might want to read a bit before you start challenging anyone's authority.

As an authorized member of a security team it is well within his power to do so. Even if compliance comes by force. I see and understand both sides of the coin. As I said earlier it wouldn't be a bad idea for CC's church to allow members to carry if certain criteria are met. So you have to prove you can shoot but how is that bad? I'll take any day at the range burning GP.

Duckman, I agree it's way to easy to get a cc permit!!! Not that you should not be able to get one but should be tougher shooting qualifications like knowing how to use your gun!! Other then pulling the trigger at ten yards and hiting a paper 3 out of 9 shots!!

It was his repeated dare to se what happens at his church if you don't know his church rules and carry!! That's got me hot!!

Afraid you missed the point. In all of the places you named except the church you can conceal carry and/ or open carry and protect yourself and your family. You cannot CC or OC in church unless you attend a 8 hour class every year and get approval from the senior pastor. Its the law, not a church rule. That's why the security team and/or off duty officers are placed around the campus, its for the protection of the men, women and especially the children that are attending church services.

No I missed no point....My point is if I got to be so scared to go somewhere I got to carry a gun I don't want my wife and kids there anyway... I had people tell me I'm crazy for going fishing by myself and the way I see it it's get busy living or get busy dieing....I see nothing wrong with people protecting themself...Waltz into my home uninvited and see what greets you....If I feel I have to carry a gun into a place I patronize I'll go elsewhere....Just me....Really ,,,,why would you go to a public place and feel as if you need a gun to defend yourself ??????
