My church which belongs to the "liberal" Lutheran tradition in America Swede Atlanta May 2014 #1

I will never fly into Atlanta again. upaloopa May 2014 #3

Thanks for the idea The Blue Flower May 2014 #5

endanger your family by flying through Atlanta? ProdigalJunkMail May 2014 #9

I don't support expanded gun rights and I don't upaloopa May 2014 #31

personal boycotts are fine... ProdigalJunkMail May 2014 #32

excellent idea. nt okaawhatever May 2014 #11

Well, forget Texas, Oregon, and Washington airports. (You can carry in the non-secure areas of all.) X_Digger May 2014 #22

Well maybe some day common sense upaloopa May 2014 #30

So until then, are you boycotting those 40+ states? lol. n/t X_Digger May 2014 #33

Well I am going to the Big Island of Hawaii upaloopa May 2014 #34

Well, Hawaii allows concealed carry in the non-secure part of the airport. X_Digger May 2014 #35

Well maybe we will fix that in the future. upaloopa May 2014 #36

So the personal boycott only extends to states you weren't likely to travel to anyway? X_Digger May 2014 #39

I wish you luck....... Swede Atlanta May 2014 #27

I don't care to learn more gunner lore upaloopa May 2014 #29

Glad to see this. Too many racists/bigots among Baptists to expect Hoyt May 2014 #2

Is this acceptable? Open_n_Shut May 2014 #13

How much experience do you have with southern, white Baptist congregations? Hoyt May 2014 #14

Quite a bit. DeadLetterOffice May 2014 #16

I'm definitely bigoted toward white Southern Baptists who support hatred against minorities. Hoyt May 2014 #18

Fair enough, at least you own your prejudice. n/t DeadLetterOffice May 2014 #20

Prejudice from experience and disappointment. Klan members were quite welcome in Baptist churches Hoyt May 2014 #24

Not to mention their prohibition Le Taz Hot May 2014 #38

Having lived and worked in South and North Carolina, Georgia, Alabama and Florida.... Open_n_Shut May 2014 #26

The curve is shifted far to the right. Hoyt May 2014 #28

The point of the law was to allow churches to decide themselves. aikoaiko May 2014 #4

No, the laws were enacted by the bigoted right/white wing legislature with help of gun fanciers. Hoyt May 2014 #12

I support the new law because I believe it should be up to the church to decide. aikoaiko May 2014 #15

So was this guy. Hoyt May 2014 #17

I'm with Jason Carter on this one. aikoaiko May 2014 #21

I'm not. It shows he's willing to pander to gun fanciers to win. I'll still vote for him, but Hoyt May 2014 #23

Why shouldn't each church be able to decide for themselves? pipoman May 2014 #6

Am I arguing otherwise? Yo_Mama_Been_Loggin May 2014 #7

Who's arguing? pipoman May 2014 #8

the church IS able to decide... ProdigalJunkMail May 2014 #10

Only with the new, not yet enacted law allows them to choose.. pipoman May 2014 #19

It sounded as though they did not have that choice before... Open_n_Shut May 2014 #25
