I don't go to church anyway, so it's a moot point, but I don't think I would go, if I knew that several people were bringing guns there. I just wouldn't feel safe. To be fair, I would go to a friends / family members house if they had a gun either.
Bottom lines...guns are icky!

I'm undecided on the issue, myself. The cliche, if guns are outlawed only outlaws will have guns, has some validity, IMO. Yet, guns in the hands of so-called "good" people (if it's possible to define them!) can result in accidental injuries and death. But sometimes they do protect. (I think!)
As someone already mentioned, this idea of a security force in the church
better be supported with
excellent training.
