I and another gentleman are very probably the only ones carrying at our good sized church (despite Alaska's very liberal CCW law). We've decided that since we have each accepted the responsibility of carrying we owe it to ourselve and to the congregation to think a little about it.
I'm looking for ideas here. Things like knowing the building layout (what's on the other side of that wall? Is that room generally occupied? Shooting from a squat to minimize hitting innocents.
Also, what kind of deadly force scenarios might develop in a situation like this? Historically, like that situation recently in CO. Hostage? Random killer guy?
**UNDERSTAND** I'm not thinking about this because I have some sick or wierd urge to be a hero. I'm not "chomping at the bit" to use deadly force. NO. To the contrary, if I'm going to carry (of course I am) I'd be remiss, irresponsible to give these possibilities no prior consideration. Please don't misconstrue my inquiry.
Thank you.
Kind regards, Josh
