He's not trying to justify it, but rather wanted to have some real facts to share with those who aren';t gun people and aren't activists... most of his congregation is conservative but most aren't gun guys either. So to be able to correct the Bologna being spread by a few with actual facts. He had a few people ask his opinion (he's in leadership) and he wanted to be able to supplement his opinion with some concrete evidence.Jusme wrote: ↑Mon Jul 19, 2021 6:56 am Just spit balling here, but why does your dad need to justify CC, to anyone? Those same people predicted shoot outs at high noon, blood, in the streets, etc, when the Concealed Carry law was passed, when Open Carry was passed, when Campus Carry was passed, and they have been wrong at every turn.
Constitutional Carry is just that "Constitutional" There is no need to justify exercising a right. Maybe he should ask them, if they believe, they need the government's "permission" to go to church.
I admire him for this... it's a lot more effective than doing nothing and allowing those within earshot to form an opinion based on total bologna.
This^^^^ he's not speaking to the other side- he's preventing the other side from converting those who haven't taken a side.BigGuy wrote: ↑Mon Jul 19, 2021 2:25 pmVol Texan wrote: ↑Mon Jul 19, 2021 1:09 pm In short, don’t prepare for conversations with the ‘other side’. Instead prepare for conversations with folks who are either ‘on our side but wavering in their understanding’ or with folks who are ‘not sure where the stand because they don’t know enough to make a good decision just yet.’Sound advice. We're not going to convince the other side anyway.
