University president urges students, faculty to carry guns

Ohfour · Hooker

The Governor of TN did the same. He called on all Christians to carry...

lilyofcourse · My spirit animal is a pink flamingo.

Good. It's about time we started standing up for ourselves again.

Nobody Just Nobody · Rib-it! Rrrib-it!

This makes absolutely NO sense. He called on ONLY the Christians to carry? So non Christians shouldn't? Why would he even address them separately?

Ohfour · Hooker

He said it was the duty of Christians to keep us safe...

Nobody Just Nobody · Rib-it! Rrrib-it!

But not others? So if you aren't a Christian you can't protect people?

Nobody Just Nobody · Rib-it! Rrrib-it!

So now Christians get to start their own war. Way to go.

Nobody Just Nobody · Rib-it! Rrrib-it!

Here is a snippet from one of the articles I found.

"There is an eerie absence of logic in his statement that ties one's Christian faith to firearms ownership that is offensive to all religions," Clemmons said. "Senator Ramsey is essentially saying that we should all run out and get a handgun carry permit to prove how serious we are about our Christian faith."

lilyofcourse · My spirit animal is a pink flamingo.

No.

It isn't about separating anyone.

But the non Christian is not who he was talking to.

And let's face it, it is imparitive that the Christian protect their rights. For everyone.

lilyofcourse · My spirit animal is a pink flamingo.

It's a Christian school.

So he was addressing the students of that school.

Nobody Just Nobody · Rib-it! Rrrib-it!

It most definitely IS about separating people. And it's about saying that Christians should wage war against another group. It's a call to start holy war on the side of the Christians. If ALL people want to own a gun then I have no issue with it. But this was nothing more than trying to stir up trouble. To tell ALL CHRISTIANS that it is their job to protect the rest of the country? Really? You honestly see no issue with that? ISIS has their own agenda too. And I know I'm going to get flamed as a Christian hater and an anti gun person but so be it. This is dangerous ground.

And it's about saying that Christians should wage war against another group.
___________________________________________________________

no. it's a warning to Christians ( who have been targeted all over the world but particularly in the middle east of late ) to arm yourself for defense--your own, your family, your neighbors--it is not some call to arms to start a war with non-Christians

weltschmerz · Guru

How many people have been killed by Muslims in the USA? Not counting 9-11, because a gun couldn't have saved you from a plane crashing into the building.
How many people are killed in the USA each year by guns? About 30,000.
So, clearly the answer to the gun problem in the US is Lots More Guns!
Guns for everybody!

Nobody Just Nobody · Rib-it! Rrrib-it!

I am referring to ohfour's article. It's a different one than the one posted above.

Ok, so you don't want to own a gun but now that someone said Christians should carry you get all upset even though you're not a Christian? That is beyond reason. I'm with LL. You should go somewhere where the laws are to your liking and stop trying to take away everyone elses rights. Don't let the border hit you in the ass on the way out...

Hey, if you don't care enough about yourself and your family to protect yourself and them, why should someone else? And he was addressing Christians as his belief that as a CHRISTIAN you should protect yourself and your family. He can't really speak for others...

I didn't see where he said non-Christians shouldn't carry. This is quite the twist, the fact that a Christian man is talking to other Christians and telling them they should carry somehow means nobody else should.

First of all you act like I am anti gun. I am very much not. And second all it takes is someone with authority to stir up things and some psycho will go on a mass shooting that he feels is justified.

And yeah, there are people that can legally own guns that scare the **** out of me. Because I know, given the right circumstances, they could be dangerous.

I disagree with his message as well, not because I am anti-gun (because I'm not) nor because I am anti-Christian (also because I'm not), but because I am anti-"combine guns with religion".
