The Church Protection Act is a very good law and was much needed. When working with the MS Baptist Convention in legislative advocacy, I worked with current MS Gov. candidate Andy Gipson for MS to help get the legislation enacted into law. One positive aspect of the law is prosecutorial immunity for the church and also affords multiple individuals to carry enhanced concealed.

TUPELO — Some churches have security teams who wear suits and conceal their weapons. Others put the security officer on display, full law enforcement uniform and gun on the hip.

When I was VP of Policy and Legislative Affairs for AFA, I had written this article that provided a critical analysis of how the Obama Administration had obtained a search warrant, authorized by the Foreign Intelligence Surveillance Court (FISC), to conduct unjust surveillance on Trump and others.

Supreme Court Chief Justice John Roberts, appointed by George W. Bush, exercises unchecked power within the FISC. (As an aside, it was George W. Bush who supported John Cornyn for U.S. Senate (TX) while Donald J. Trump endorsed Ken Paxton-who defeated Cornyn in the May 2026 GOP primary.)

From the article:

“Securing a FISA warrant requires submitting a request to the United States Foreign Intelligence Surveillance Court. The FISA Court administers and issues these requests to conduct surveillance against foreign spies within the United States. This court is composed of eleven Federal District Court judges designated without Senate confirmation by the Chief Justice of the United States. All eleven judges serving on the FISA Court have been designated since 2011 and during the tenure of Chief Justice John Roberts. FISA Court rulings are reviewed by three judges on the Foreign Intelligence Surveillance Court of Review and are also designated by the Chief Justice. All have been designated since 2011.”

Interestingly, AFA deleted the article, originally posted here: https://www.afa.net/the-stand/culture/2018/01/so-much-worse-than-watergate/, but can be read on wayback machine, here: https://web.archive.org/web/20180313135638/https://www.afa.net/the-stand/culture/2018/01/so-much-worse-than-watergate/

Why would AFA delete an article critical of the democratic administration and GOP-linked attacks against Trump?

Did our own government officials actively engage in subversion in order to interfere with the 2016 presidential elec ...

As part of a smear campaign when I was running for Tupelo mayor, many were circulating lies on social media and in whisper campaign that I had been kicked out of Harrisburg Baptist Church Tupelo. Such a lie, but that doesn’t prevent so-called Christians from participating in the deeds of darkness and deceit. Harrisburg Baptist actually gave me a letter of recommendation to another church, meaning I was a member in good standing of HBC.

People inside the church call themselves “Christian” but stir up the lies. Something Jesus and Paul routinely encountered and rebuked.

Truth of the matter is that I served on HBC finance and constitution committees and voted and spoke against measures church leadership wanted, like terminating church services, changing church governance to elder rule, compensation packages for terminated employees, disclosing church member financial contribution data to church members, and church leadership slush fund.

I had also addressed the personnel matters of church leadership alignment to woke-aligned organizations, church leader defaming people from the pulpit, preaching and teaching heresy, and sermon plagiarism. Also addressed these issues with chair and vice chair of deacons. Most all these things were documented in an open letter to HBC and submitted to personnel committee. My understanding is the committee and leadership took no corrective action or addressed the issues openly with the congregation. Two of the deacons, still members I think, came to my house during my daughter’s birthday party to try and intimidate me into silence. Didn’t work. All reported heresy, blasphemy, plagiarism, defamation, all affirmed by numerous mature believers, is well documented. There’s more but this is a start.
