Re: Gunman opens fire in Tennessee church, 7 injured

I have never understood the prohibition on church carry. It's a clear violation of the 1st Amendment. Tee-totallers outnumber Catholics in most Southern states; what if the majority managed to pass a ban on alcohol in churches?

Same principle applies here: something that offends someone's sense of propriety is outlawed, in clear violation of private property rights. Doesn't matter to me if it's a bar or a church: the state has no business outlawing carry on anyone's private property. (Of course, the property owner has ever right to ban carry, but the onus should be on the owner.)
