I am very disturbed about three things today.
- The church shooting in Maryville, IL has bothered me all day. The church is in the St. Louis metro area, so maybe it is just a little to close to home. I can't begin to imagine the horror. My thoughts and prayers go out to the Maryville community.
- Illinois does not have concealed carry. What is taking so long?
- There is much debate in the media about church-goers being allowed to carry in church. This is a debate, why?
A good run usually clears my head, it didn't work this afternoon.
Our choir director at my church has a sister that goes to the church in Maryville; how's that for too close to home? I'm glad I carry, but unfortunately I don't think anything could have stopped him from killing that pastor unless his pistol failed to fire when he initially pulled it out. I'm glad to know that there were some brave people there that took him down, but I'm sad to hear that one of them is in bad shape.
