Concealed handguns OK'd, but only in churches

. . . which leaves me wanting to say, "only in Arkansas," but that might be a bit unfair.

Read the NYT blurb about the bill here. It was passed in the Arkansas House (57-42) and will now be considered by the state Senate.

Well, I have commented in the past few days here and here that guns do tend to be an aspect of rural culture, so perhaps I should not be surprised.
