On Saturday, Feb. 9, 2013, Austin American Statesman posted
an article that addressed a Baptist church near the Panhandle of Texas holding
a concealed handgun training class. Basically stating that it would form a more
secure environment, the 10 hour class is to be held on March 2 at the
fellowship hall. If successful, two more classes will be followed after along
with other offerings. With people from all across the region showing interest
in this offering, more than half of those enrolled already are women and school
teachers. I found this interesting because the irony of a church promoting concealed
handgun training is unusual in any religion.
