Pastor encourages guns in church

Louisville, Kentucky pastor Ken Pagano invited Bethel Church members to bring their guns to church in celebration of the Second Amendment of the U.S. Constitution that guarantees the right to bear arms.

More than 200 people responded, bringing their firearms to church to view gun safety videos, listen to patriotic music, and participate in a handgun raffle.  Church attendant Liz Boyer said, "I just believe in the right to protect ourselves."

There was just one problem: the church members were not allowed to bring any bullets . . . which makes the issue fairly moot.  An unloaded gun provides as much protection as an unplugged adding machine.
