Church Police: Just What America Needed

THE ALABAMA SENATE PASSED A BILL THAT GRANTS THE BRIARWOOD
PRESBYTERIAN CHURCH A NEW POWER, IT WOULD --
>>WHY HAS IT COME TO THIS?
WHY DOES THE CHURCH GET ITS OWN
POLICE DEPARTMENT AS AN INDIVIDUAL ORGANIZATION THAT
THEY CONTROL?
WELL --
>>IF THAT IS THE PRESIDENT, EVERY MAKE A CHURCH AROUND THE
COUNTRY WILL SOON HAVE ITS OWN ARMED POLICE OFFICERS THAT IT
EXCLUSIVELY CONTROLS, GET READY FOR THAT IF THIS SPREADS.
ERIC
JOHNSTON, AN ATTORNEY, SAYS --
>>APPARENTLY THEY HAVE MANY EVENTS, WHICH I'M NOT SURPRISED
TO FIND OUT, THIS CHURCH HAS MANY EVENTS EVERY YEAR, NOW THEY
DON'T HAVE TO HIRE PEOPLE, THEY JUST HAVE THEIR OWN POLICE.
NOW
--
>>THAT WILL BE THE CASE, UNLESS THEY SAY THAT THIS IS
UNCONSTITUTIONAL, WHICH IT CERTAINLY SEEMS LIKE IT WOULD
BE --
>>IF THAT WAS THEIR POLICE, WOULD THEY ACTUALLY INVESTIGATE
IT?
>>OH, OKAY.
AS LONG AS THEY PROMISED.
IS THAT A GOOD
PRECEDENT TO SET?
>>THIS IS CRAZY, I BELIEVE IT'S UNCONSTITUTIONAL, PUBLIC MONEY
SHOULDN'T GO TOWARD ANY RELIGION, I DON'T CARE WHAT THE
RELIGION IS.
THIS SETS A BAD PRECEDENT, IF THIS IS ALLOWED TO
HAPPEN IN THIS CHURCH IN ALABAMA, WHY WOULDN'T OTHER
CHURCHES OR TEMPLES OR SYNAGOGUES OR MOSQUES BE ABLE TO
DO THE SAME THING?
TAXPAYER MONEY SHOULD BE USED TO HELP
PEOPLE IN WAYS THAT ARE NOT TIED TO RELIGION, THAT ARE NOT ALWAYS
TIED TO WAR, THAT ARE NOT TIED TO THINGS THAT ARE DETRIMENTAL.
AND I'M NOT SAYING RELIGION IS A BAD THING -- IN SOME CASES IT
IS, IF IT'S EXTREME -- BUT I DON'T WANT TAXPAYER MONEY GOING
TOWARD RELIGION, IT'S AGAINST THE CONSTITUTION, SO WHERE ARE
THE CONSERVATIVES WHO CLAIM TO BE CONSTITUTIONALIST?
>>THERE ARE ALREADY LOOSE GUN LAWS IN ALABAMA, YOU DON'T HAVE
TO REGISTER YOUR GUNS, FIRST OF ALL.
THE BACKGROUND CHECKS, YOU
CAN TRANSFER POSSESSION OF ASSAULT RIFLES -- SO WE WILL
TRUST, AS YOU POINTED OUT THAT THE STATE SENATOR SAID, WE WILL
TRUST THEM TO HIRE THE RIGHT KIND OF PEOPLE?
EVEN HAND OUT
SOME GUNS TO THE RIGHT PARISHIONERS?
THERE ARE CHURCHES
THAT HISTORICALLY HAVE BEEN ATTACKED -- ARE YOU GOING TO
HAND OUT GUNS TO ALL THE BLACK CHURCHES, FIRST EMMANUEL IN
CHARLESTON?
HISTORICALLY THESE CHURCHES GET ATTACKED, ARE YOU
READY TO HAND OFF GUNS AND LET THEM GO SHOOTING ANY WHITE GUY
THEY SEE?
HISTORICALLY WHITE FOLKS HAVE SHOT UP BLACK CHURCHES.
>>WENDY'S POLICE KILL SOMEONE WILL THEY BE IMMUNE TO
PROSECUTION THE WAY MOST COPS SEEM TO BE?
WE HAVE SEPARATION
OF CHURCH AND STATE, WE NEED TO REMEMBER THAT, THIS IS A
TERRIBLE PRECEDENT -- ALSO FOR YOU NERDS THIS IS WHAT LANNISTER
DID TO START HER DOWNFALL.
BUT IF YOU WANT TO STOP THIS YOU JUST NEED A MOSQUE IN THE
AREA TO APPLY FOR ITS OWN POLICE FORCE, THAT WILL BE THE END
OF IT ACROSS THE COUNTRY.
>>YOU ARE ALREADY TAX-EXEMPT.
HOW ABOUT YOU USE THAT
TAX-EXEMPT STATUS AND ALL THE MONEY YOU SAVE TO BUY YOUR OWN
SECURITY?
WHY DO TAXPAYERS HAVE TO FOOT THE BILL?
THAT DOESN'T MAKE SENSE.
