Just another day in Europe... :blkeye:

France church attack: Priest killed in hostage-taking near Rouen - BBC News

A priest has been killed in an attack by two armed men at his church in a suburb of Rouen in northern France.

The attackers entered the church in Saint-Etienne-du-Rouvray during Mass, taking the priest, Fr Jacques Hamel, 84, and four other people hostage.

President Francois Hollande said the men claimed to be from so-called Islamic State (IS).

Speaking in Saint-Etienne-du-Rouvray, he said the attackers had committed a "cowardly assassination" and France would fight IS "by all means".

The IS-linked Amaq news agency said "two soldiers of the Islamic State" had carried out the attack.

Jesus fucking Christ. It's a sad day when these attacks start becoming the norm....

I honestly don't know how much more the French people can take of this

So it takes two brave, highly trained IS cowards to kill an 84 y/o Priest. Another two who should experience the death of a thousand cuts. That, or being kicked, and bitten to death by highly trained rats.

A chickenshit but intelligent move for a terrorist. It reminds people they aren't safe anywhere and has the bonus of striking an infidel priest. All sorts of win for these clowns.

I hate that this forum is so busy.

Blue Skies.

How many that have CCW, carry going to services?

There is some wiggle room in the way the CCW is addressed while at a religious service. here in Va. I carry.

Cannot speak for overseas, but here in Minnesota I do. And I sit in the balcony...every service.

Catholic Churches in TX are anti-2A, no guns allowed, they also post another sign over the no carry sign that says "Blessed are the Peacemakers, blah,blah,blah; which makes this killing ironic in some ways.

This is bullshit. The Nazis weren't defeated by #Not all Nazis. Why haven't governments in the west started taking this shit seriously? It honestly seems like we have given up. This has become a daily occurrence and we make excuses for them and let them into our countries with open arms.

Failed leadership, and refusing to see any of this as a threat to American, or any other, lives. The LEO's get it, but inside the beltway it PC, and fantasy land.

What is the consequence in Texas for carrying in church and being caught?

In Minnesota, you are asked to leave the premises and if you refuse, it is a $25 fine and a petty misdemeanor.

I'm always armed in church. Then again, I'm always armed. It works out well.

So the church that has its own military and police force posts 30.06 signs outside its churches? Wow. They don't do that here.

Concealed means nobody knows it's there...

I believe it was change to a misdemeanor here last january (@Diamondback 2/2 ?)

30.06 and 30.07, yes the irony of it.

True, but until the 9 year old is older I will just avoid off-base churches.

There is no law that prohibit carrying in a church, unless they post a sign, and even then, it's ticket. I agree with @Etype if it's properly concealed, nobody is any the wiser.

One of the loop holes in Va Law, is regarding collection, processing(counting), and safeguarding of funds.
