I don’t expect to need protection in shul (besides what the KBH provides).
I don’t know if any of the 12 carry their guns into shul. I haven’t noticed any holsters or weapons to be visible.
If the 12 didn’t have guns, it wouldn’t make me want one.
I was made to learn how to fire a rifle in summer camp about 60 years ago. Haven’t handled any gun since.
I don’t want to own one and don’t permit them in my home or offices.
