NY Church Not A Gun-Free Zone

Carry everywhere and nothing else matters. I do not need a sign to tell me it is okay to protect my family and self.

No,we dont need a sign,and I usually ignore signs that say not to carry.But its good to see a church,or any institution encouraging us to carry.If more people/places did this it would be much easier to quell the anti gun fuckheads.
Absolutely, not knocking the church at all. Hell, I would encourage all places to do this!

I am a regular church attender, and carry. I would have reservations about attending this church as I think the "crazies" would see this as a challenge.

Here at the Church of John Moses Browning, members need no such encouragement, we've got a 2 mag minimum.

Ok,any "crazies" would probably end up shooting up some other soft target.Better they find a "challenge" that includes a good guy ,or guys,with guns to send them to meet god,on their way to hell.

They don't want a challenge. Hence the choosing of churches, schools, night clubs and concert venues to perpetrate their acts. Confronting a group of religious-minded individuals who are equally as convinced of their right to self-defense as their religion itself is not likely to end well for the invader.
I have friends and family in the clergy, as well. Several are current or former military or LEO, as well. All are armed, even in the pulpit. And why not? Peace does not mean submission.
Down here it is just understood that carrying EVERYWHERE is the norm.
I took my Wife to the hospital this morning for a surgical procedure, and they had the required "No weapons" signage posted. Guess what? Concealed is concealed. I have ZERO intentions of going ANYWHERE without CCing! While I was in the car waiting for them to bring my Wife out to the pick-up area I ran into a Buddy of mine who runs the LGS I fill in at often. I'm sure he was carrying as well. Like I said; concealed is concealed. I have quite a few LE Buddies down here, and they all say the same thing!

The carry at church all the time. My pastor welcomes it. His wife has even said multiple times she will sit closer to me since she knows I'm carrying.

Again, promise this won't make a splash in main stream media. Libs will jump all over it calling out gun nuts and religious crazies.

Being in Oswego County, most people probably have sportsman restrictions on their permits.
Which, just like a policy a church may or may not have, has nothing to do with the law.

Another place for the furher to proclaim it doesn't belong in NY...along with anti gay...pro life...pro 2nd amendment. Carry everywhere...why have a carry permit and leave it at home ? Like getting a flat and the spare is in the garage at home.

you wont be .. he is totally for it .. all the disciples were packing back then .. even if they only had swards .. still armed for the time ..
The last time I was in church was for my dad's funeral service. And damn right I was carrying,- a 1911 @ 4, and my favorite SP101 .357 @ 8.
Why? Because I would not have been surprised if gunfire had been started by my siblings. They are completely bat shit crazy. Even now,- years after his death, as his Executor, I am still in court fighting them over his Estate.
Just recently, the judge commented in court that "it was clear that this case was a multi years long blood fued between siblings that will be continuing long after this estate is eventually settled...".
They have both been warned in writing by legal authorities to stay away from me for harassing and threatening me. So yeah, I carry. At all times. Even in church.
