Sometimes I don’t even understand the NRA

Jesus_with_gun

From the New Orleans Times-Picayune by way of Gawker: Gov. Bobby Jindal has signed into law one of the more controversial
bills from the recent legislative session, one allowing guns to be
carried into houses of worship.

It's not so much that bringing a gun into church pisses me off, it's just that I don't even understand it. How did anyone even think of that? Who wakes up in the morning and says America world would be a better place if we could just bring our guns into church.?

I can sort of understand Bobby Jindal – I think – he didn't initiate the bill, he just signed it so he can be seen as pro-gun. But what about the guy that thought this up? Was it a joke? Does he really think this will make America a better place? It beats me.

  1. That is truly sad; there’s little integrity in any public official today. Or should I say backbone?
    But what I find even more amazing than this, is the fact that any public official thinks it’s ok to have a gun in a bar. We can drink and drive, why should we be able to drink and shoot? Anyone walk around the Mission District or parts of Chicago after 1:30 a.m.?
    Arggghhhh…..

  2. Correction: We cannot drink and drive, so should we be able to drink and shoot?

  3. I had sort of forgotten the new guns in bars laws, Laura. It is sad and – to me – incomprehensible. Maybe the theory is that, when you are drunk, you won’t be a good enough shot to be dangerous.
