I am in no way opposed to any citizen exercising his or her Second Amendment rights to protect themselves, their family or other innocent persons.
As a life long Louisiana resident, conservative Christian and Second Amendment supporter with a background in law enforcement and firearms training, I strongly
OPPOSE bill 334 AS IT IS CURRENTLY PROPOSED for the following reason:
Church leaders, just as business owners, should have input into who carries in their facilities. If your leader says "no" and you don't like it, find another church, just like if a business (or individual) requests no firearms on their premises I go somewhere else.
My reasoning is this - many churches have security teams. The better teams practice regularly as a team and know who is carrying and how they are trained to react.
If a shooting occurs in one of these churches and a person unknown to the team members draws and/or fires a weapon, that person WILL be assumed to be a part of the threat and will be shot.
If the CHP holder has to have permission of the church leader, then at least the security team can be informed that the person is carrying and act accordingly during a shooting.
