If you haven’t read up on the Texas church shooting — which took the lives of two innocent worshippers — please see coverage from RedState’s Jeff Charles as well as myself.

As I wrote previously, there’s no better example of the life-saving answer to a bad guy with the gun.

The church security guard answered immediately.

Because of that, any further loss of life was prevented.

But Joe Biden didn’t want the guard to have a gun.

As reported by The Daily Wire, when Texas Governor Greg Abbott signed a bill into law earlier this year permitting those within houses of worship to pack heat, Joltin’ Joe called it “totally irrational.”

Here’s what he had to say to reporters, on September 2nd:

“Dealing with firearms, it is irrational, with all due respect to the governor of Texas, irrational what they are doing. On the very day you see a mass shooting…and we’re talking about loosening access to have guns, to be able to take them into places of worship, it’s just absolutely irrational. It’s totally irrational.”

See for yourself:

The former VP also asserted that — and buckle up for this one — any “magazines that can have multiple bullets in them” should be banned.

How about we keep bullets legal, so long as you only throw ’em?

As for the magazines thing, Joe said it’s “no violation of the 2nd Amendment”:

Joe Biden makes the most extreme gun-control push of all the 2020 Democrat presidential candidates:

All magazines hold "multiple bullets," that's the point

It’s “mindless.”

And in case you’re wondering, it’s a no-compromise situation:

Joe Biden goes far-left on guns, says there is “no compromise” on the issue and that it must be his way

Here’s something else that was no-compromise: the West Freeway Church of Christ security guard’s reaction to a shooter in the sanctuary.

If you haven’t seen the video, I implore you to see the greatest example of what a defensive gun can do when evil attacks.

The guard’s response was incredibly swift.

How many were saved?

How many more would’ve been lost, had the governor of Texas agreed with Joe Biden, and refused to be “irrational”?
