church steeple a new beacon for gun-toting people

Refers to Missouri GOP bill about guns in churches and on buses and other public transportation. The rationale is that more guns make us safer. The gun violence in St. Louis is a perfect example of how this logic plays out. More guns DO NOT make us safer. 

The bill sailed through the house and is on its way to the Missouri GOP controlled Senate.
