Ha! Why pick on the Lutherans. It’s the same across the board. If pilots flew planes the way the church is being “flown,” the entire airline industry would be on the ground and in flames within minutes.
The “Shopping in Texas” video is amusing, but it depicts concealed carry gun owners sweeping the room with the muzzle of their guns. One of the first rules of gun safety is never to muzzle anything that you don’t intend to shoot. Texas isn’t Hollywood. :-)
