We need a pastor in the very small country Church where I go. Maybe if a good prospect comes along, I should tell him that a current CHL is required.

LOL

Sorry about misssssspelling your name in the previous post Mr. Cotton.

Funny thought, yes, but a very serious principle indeed. He has given us all things including choice (free will) and we should choose to be prepared to protect ourselves and loved ones.
On another note, a question for Mr. Cotten, if the gun is properly concealed by clothing to the reasonable observation of people, we have complied with the CHL requirements. If someone hugs us and feels it and asks or then knows what you have, are we then in violation (I can't remember the exact legal wording) of the statutes ? What say ye Chas ??

Because I'm out in the country where we just don't have many BG problems, I usually don't wear mine in church. I know that I should and have become lax in the rural area. In my county there are many volunteer organizations for fire, medical, etc. On morning at church I was wearing a handheld radio on my belt (in the back) when the hugging lady felt it and wanted to know what it was. Kinda funny at the time :)

I had to laugh out loud just writing that. That's funny, I don't care who you are.

YUP ! LOL :)
I always thought if ya'll is a huggin, then they should know you well enough to realize what it is. My church is a very small country (Baptist) place where everybody knows everybody. :)
