Here we go again:
Armed member of ‘Pfleger’s security’ arrested outside his church
“Pfleger” here is “Reverend Michael Pfleger.” A preacher having an armed guard… shrug. Jesus his own self suggested to one of his people that if he didn’t have a sword, to sell his cloak and go buy one, so a preacher having defensive capability isn’t anti-Christian doctrine. Especially when you consider that Pfleger works in Chicago, a town that has been run by anti-gun tyrants for so long that the average person basically hasn’t been able to procure defensive weapons, and thus Chicago has become a place loaded with armed *criminals.* But if you do not recognize Pfleger, he was somewhat notorious a decade or so ago, being a pal with racist Reverence Jeremiah Wright. Since then he has made a name for himself as – wait for it – an anti-gun fanatical demagogue, going so far as to threaten the owner of a gun shop.
And now, wonder of wonders, one of his armed guards has been arrested not only for having an illegal gun, but for not having a FOID (Firearms Owners ID) card. Illinois, unsurprisingly for a state so badly and corruptly run, requires citizens to have a special state-issued card before they are allowed to exercise their basic rights. It’s good and proper for citizens to arm themselves regardless of what power-mad bureaucrats might have to say on the subject… but if you are yourself a power-mad anti-gun nut, maybe you aught to make sure that the guys you hire to stand around you and arm themselves with guns to protect you from the people you want to disarm are at least following the laws. so they don’t get arrested and make a public spectacle of your hypocrisy.
