Recently I was invited to give a class/seminar to a fairly large Baptist church. The person in charge of the detail says he has limited law enforcement experience back in the 1970s.
In giving the class I left it open, and encouraged questions from the detail. I got very few, and my sense when I asked them questions, was that they, while meaning well, didn't know enough about the mission to ask questions.
I believe after much thought that 99% of church
security teams enjoy the notoriety of being on the security team, but lack the mental, and physical dedication.
For instance, the head of this security team started carrying a pistol every day after the class,
for about a week. Then it was back to hardly ever.
I completely believe that being permanently armed is mandatory, and necessarily a lifestyle to be competent in protecting ones self, ones family, and in this case a congregation. It's NOT A ONCE A WEEK ENDEAVOR. The link below illustrates what 1 man, however demented, but dedicated can do in a few minutes.
Grown men should take this to heart, and realize that craziness doesn't have a posted schedule. https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sutherland_Springs_church_shooting
