Dr. Ignatius Piazza is like a dog with a bone. When he finds a media meme that justifies his “most everyone should be armed and extremely well-trained,” the Front Sight Firearms Training Institute founder and jeffe gnaws and gnaws on it, then gnaws on it some more. I’ve received yet another email from the pistol-packing Doc based on the idea that places of worship need to be armed encampments. We get the same list of “the most publicized attacks on churches” (third time lucky) and a letter of support from one Patrick Lengel. I think we’re talking about “Pastor Frank Lengal,” the founder of Biker Church USA, motorcycle-oriented cartoonist for the Baptist Press and member of the National Rifle Association (NRA). This quote gives that theory credence: “The other day I had the opportunity to sit down with a couple Jehovah’s Witnesses. I love blasting their ideas out of the water and winning the argument. I often times approach these discussions with the proverbial Clint Eastwood stare and an attitude saying, ‘Go ahead, make my day.'” Anyway, Preacher Pat is, as the Brits would say, tooled-up, and well down with Dr. Piazza’s pro-firearm philosophy.
