Another good argument for carrying in church (old but good)

Church of Saint Casimir History

Due to ill health, Rev Kobylinski returned to Poland in 1910. He was replaced by Fr. Paul Kupferschmidt, who was priest for three years until his death in 1913.

Rev. Henry Jazdzewski was again appointed pastor. On March 4, 1916 he was in front of the Church hearing confessions at 6:00 pm when Aneila Dudek, a 38 year old Minneapolis woman, entered the church from the side door with her hands concealed in a muff. She approached the priest and then aimed a .32 caliber revolver at his head, squeezed the trigger, hitting him just above the left eye. She fired four more shots, all of them unnecessary; the first bullet had been fatal.

It was later learned that this was the third attempt Mrs. Dudek had made on the priest’s life. She had also filed three lawsuits against him, but lost all three. She claimed he had violated his vow of celibacy and that he was responsible for her youngest child. She was not brought to trial until her mental condition was evaluated, but the major consensus was that she was mentally and emotionally unstable. (No information is available on whether or not she was convicted of murder).

Deaner - you're slippin. it states right there in the article - apparently the priest wasn't shootin blanks and he had decent aim.

apparently he was just a little slow on the draw

And all you .45 guys say the .32 isn't worth anything.

back then there was less meth on the street, less medical technology and less crazy in the water. a .32 was probably jjjuuust fine most the time

.32 is great for killing a person.

Maybe not so great for getting them to stop hitting you with a tire iron.

Another good argument for kevlar priest robes and armored plates in the confession booths.

A .22 rimfire will kill, that is a proven.
But I want to stop the attack now and not have the attacker expire 20 minutes after he is done beating me to death.
