Grammar not grammur
Someone’s not somewunz
****** not faggit

Illiterate swine
 
So fvck off with this one sided political violence argument, it's intellectually dishonest.

Let us know when you find video of a Democratic candidate for President of the Untied States telling people attending his or her rallies to "knock the shit out of them" or "carry them out on a stretcher."

You think I agree with him? I don't. But ignoring the violence from the left, or justifying it because of Trump, is just as stupid and irresponsible as POTUS himself.

Still waiting for the name of a church in Huntington with armed guards.

I already posted the reason I wont, but it's not that singular anymore. Now, it's pure entertainment. Watching you foam at the mouth over something so meaningless has been fun. Old Fairfield is a circus and you're the dancing monkey.

This is my last reply to you on this subject, it's a fruitless waste of time.

I understand you are finally admitting to being a liar thanks for finally confirming.

There are at least two churches that use armed volunteers to monitor the doors (along with other security features). One church has publicly disclosed this info; the other has chosen not to similarly publicize. I am speculating that '76 is speaking of one of the two churches (I think '76 mentioned "large church" upthread - and both would be properly characterized as such for this region), and that '76 is hesitating to disclose this info not knowing whether one or both have publicized this info. I happen to know about both churches and can at least shed some light.

The publicly known church is New Life. Last fall, a news item appeared on WSAZ and its website regarding churches considering armed security, and Pastor Josh Huffman indicated that New Life has armed volunteers at the door(s). LINK. (video of item embedded at link; provides interesting perspective between New Life and First Presby. in Huntington, a smaller church with no armed security).

Out of respect for the other church, I will simply note that it is quietly known/acknowledged that it has armed volunteers.

Another church maintains locked doors with greeters to facilitate ingress (egress is facilitated by the press-bar release locks on the inside of the doors).

FWIW.
 
I personally place my family between two exit points at church. We have volunteers that stand guard at all the entrances, but I've never asked if they carry or not. We have a good size congregation, with two morning services, about 600-700 total. I try to be aware of folks I don't recognize and try to introduce myself before services start, as do several others. I do it partially to be welcoming and partially to get a feel for how they are acting.

It's a shame things have to be that way, but it's the world we live in.

One time, I heard that a meteorite killed a man on the other side of the world. As a result, I live 24 hours/day in a bunker built 50 feet underground.

It's a shame things have to be that way, but it's the world we live in.

Let me provide some facts for just how ridiculous people like Banker and these armed places of worship are:

There are over 350,000 places of worship that hold services at least once a week (many of which hold far more than just one service) in the United States. Even with the bare minimum of 350K places of worship, and even at the bare minimum of just one service each per week, that means there are over 18 million religious services per year in the U.S. (and, of course, more accurately 2-3 times that number).

On average over the last decade, there have been one of these mass shootings per year at a place of worship (there have been more shootings at places of worship, but they have been domestic violence situations where the target is just one person).

So this fear of your place of worship (not your particular service, just your place of worship) becoming the target of a mass shooting per year is less than 1/350,000. Even if your place of worship only holds two services per week, and even if you go to worship once every single week, the chance of your service becoming the target that week is less than 1/36,400,000 million. Again, not you dying or getting shot, but simply your service getting shot up.

The chances of anyone dying in a commercial plane crash that you are on in the U.S. is 1/7.3 million. The chances of you getting killed by a bear while visiting Yellowstone National Park is 1/3 million. The chances of you drowning in a bathtub is 1/900,000.

But by all means, keep choosing seats based on being an equal point to multiple exits. Keep introducing yourself to people so that you can judge if they are going to shoot up the church or not. But by all means, continue flying in the U.S., continue going to national parks, and definitely continue taking showers.

Every buidling and room I go into I plan my exit strategy and escape plan. And, if the shit goes down what am I going to do.

Takes a few seconds. Probably won't ever need it, but I can at least say I thought about it.

Sure, I can understand it. It's natural fear without any logic. Along the same lines, I'd say about a quarter of the times I fly, I contemplate the plane going down. I go to the movie theaters 2-3 times a week, and I'd say I also mentally plan out what I would do in a shooting situation about a third of the time I sti down for a movie. As you said, that takes a few seconds to do.

There is absolutely no logic in doing what we do, as facts show we won't be one of those people. But a few seconds of contemplating is harmless, right? When it gets too bizarre and illogical is when people start drastically changing their behavior - selecting seats for your family based on having multiple exists accessible, carrying guns to act as a volunteer at the door, pretending to be welcoming to people so you can gauge their likelihood of being a mass shooter.

It is called being prepared.

You go to the movies 2 to 3 times a week? Wow. Are there enough movies worth seeing?

They aren't all at the same theater. Most of the best movies over the last 12 months have been those in limited release. Most national chain theaters only show blockbusters/action movies. They don't show great movies that many times are up for the top awards at the Oscars.

Recent movies like Monsters & Men, Operation Finale, On Her Shoulders, Colette, The Old Man & the Gun, Can You Ever Forgive Me?, The Sisters Brothers, What They Had are all phenomenal movies that wouldn't be shown at the local mega-AMC.

Bucktard is an expert in knowing what all businesses have in any market. He claimed that Wendy's had kiosks "everywhere," especially in Columbus, OH back when he lived in Dublin, all because the one in Dublin (which is their flagship store) had a kiosk for ordering.

I more than proved the mental midget wrong, even used actual numbers from Wendy's regarding the number of kiosks installed per year and when they were introduced. I made him look like the idiot he truly is, and he still was too stupid to lay down and admit defeat.

The guy has to be special needs.

Hey the airlines are just now adding kiosks at the airports. Wait......
You are all over it retard. Keeping us up on all the current technologies.
 
No, you just ignore things that show the stupidity of your original premise. You don't have to do any math to know there are far more attendees annually of school than churches. The odds of being shot in a school are much less than being shot in a school. So, based on your rational, it's ridiculous to plan for school shootings and try to prevent them.

It's like tornado drills, there hasn't been a tornado to cause fatalities at a school since the 1950s. Why should they have drills?

What was my original premise - that changing where you seat your family and that going out of you way to talk to people so you can judge if they may be a mass shooter is absurdly stupid? Yeah, that's my position. It is the pinnacle of paranoia with no logic involved.


The odds of being shot in a school are much less than being shot in a school.

That's some deep sh!t there. Can you show me the math you used to determine that the odds of being shot in a school are much less than being shot in a school?

So, based on your rational, it's ridiculous to plan for school shootings and try to prevent them.

Rationale. Rationale and rational are two different words that people routinely confuse. You're looking for "rationale."

It's absolutely not ridiculous to try to prevent them just like it's absolutely not ridiculous to try to prevent deaths from car crashes. However, when you're changing your behavior to give you the possibility to survive something that is extremely, extremely, extremely (add in a few more "extremelys" in there) unlikely to happen on the micro level, then yes, it is ridiculous.

It's like tornado drills, there hasn't been a tornado to cause fatalities at a school since the 1950s. Why should they have drills?

It's a waste of time. When I was in middle school, an elderly witch of a home-economics teacher would make each of her classes go through a drill in the hall in cases of a bomb. Even though the serious threat from the cold war had been over for many years, and even though that threat wouldn't have been to upstate NY, she still had each of her classes do it. It was a joke.
