A Pennsylvania church is facing backlash after encouraging couples to bring their AR-15 rifles weapons recently used in mass shootings to a blessing ceremony next week.
The World Peace and Unification Sanctuary in Newfoundland say worshipers could also bring equivalents such as an AK semiautomatic rifle, to the Feb. 28 ceremony, the church website says.

The dad is a authoritarian who still drives around (for 30+ years) with a loaded gun on his passenger seat. My sister never saw a gun before this. Our former frIend married a man like her father...a neo Nazi. She had KKK literature hidden under her bed which she forgot about when she moved out.
These people do not go hunting. They never have. They carry tiki torches and they own a lot of guns and they teach this mentality to their children and their childrens' children.
