I have been assigned as a Draper Temple security person. Should I take a concealed weapon even though I don't have a permit? You never know when some nasty anti- goes postal.
Dilemna.

definitely. bringing a gun "just in case" is always a good idea. add to this that you don't have a permit for the gun and it makes the idea even better.Fitter. Happier. More Productive.

why don't you consecrate some gun oil , clean the gun with said oil and then give the old pistole' the old layin' on of the hands. I am not sure you would need to bring it after that, it would just know when it was needed.

I don't think you should be entrusted with sharp objects, much less a gun.
Although I can see your point - the Draper temple grounds can certainly be a hotbed for violent criminal activity.If we disagree on something, it's because you're wrong.

Can't the church assign the three nephites for these tasks? The temple dedications are often spaced out enough and I'm sure the church will work with the three nephites' busy schedule."They're good. They've always been good" - David Shaw.
Well, because he thought it was good sport. Because some men aren't looking for anything logical, like money. They can't be bought, bullied, reasoned, or negotiated with. Some men just want to watch the world burn.

Does anyone else remember when the guy held hostages at gunpoint in the DC temple about 25-30 years ago?

It would have ended a lot quicker, but one of the SWAT team members had let his recommend lapse, and had to talk to his Bishop in the parking lot first. It's a good lesson for all of us.Originally posted by il Padrino Ute View PostDoes anyone else remember when the guy held hostages at gunpoint in the DC temple about 25-30 years ago?

Praise to his mem'ry, he died as a martyr;Originally posted by Hallelujah View PostI have been assigned as a Draper Temple security person. Should I take a concealed weapon even though I don't have a permit? You never know when some nasty anti- goes postal.
Honored and blest is his ever great name;
Long shall his blood, which was shed by assassins,
Stain Draper Utah, while the earth lauds his fame.
