Tenn Lt. Gov. calls for "Fellow Christians to arm themselves

Post by dbackjon »

Tennessee Lt. Gov. Ron Ramsey responded to the mass shooting at an Oregon community college in a Facebook post Friday saying that “fellow Christians” should consider getting a handgun carry permit to protect themselves.

In his Facebook posting, Ramsey, who is also speaker of the Tennessee senate, said the recent spate of mass shootings around the nation is “truly troubling.”

The Blountville Republican said, "whether the perpetrators are motivated by aggressive secularism, jihadist extremism or racial supremacy, their targets remain the same: Christians and defenders of the West."

"I would encourage my fellow Christians who are serious about their faith to think about getting a handgun carry permit," Ramsey wrote. "I have always believed that it is better to have a gun and not need it than to need a gun and not have it. Our enemies are armed. We must do likewise."

So what do you think would have happened in that Oregon incident if every Christian in the school had been armed with a firearm?

Seriously. You people ridicule that idea. But what do you think the scenario would have been?

Also, what effect do you think it would have on someone contemplating something like that if everyone knew that if you went into that sort of situation all of the potential victims would be armed with firearms?
Well, I believe that I must tell the truth
And say things as they really are
But if I told the truth and nothing but the truth
Could I ever be a star?
