I have been known to carry in church way before it was legal in Missouri. It was at a major church function when two Presbyteries in the St Louis area were joining and there had to have been well over 5000 people in attendance. My father, who was a minister asked if I'd like to go and I said I would, though I hate big crowds like that. What he didn't know was that under my suit coat was a Model 19 S&W in a Bianchi shoulder holster. Why, because there had been several sniper type shootings just a few blocks down the street not long before.
I'm not so sure my dad might not have gotten a ccw, if we had been able to get them at the time. He went up to our church one night for something and heard somebody trying to get thru the door between the sanctuary and the office/upstairs classroom area. Since he hadn't turned on a light they didn't know he was there so he quietly left. After that time whenever he had to go over to the church at night he always had our German Shepherd with him. I think I remember him saying something about Fritzie chasing people out a couple of times.
