A pastor in St. Louis is working to organize a toy gun buyback at his church.
He’s in complete denial and denial has no survival value.
Instead of teaching kids “Stop! Don’t touch! Leave the area! Tell an adult”, he works to contribute to the mystique of guns in the minds of children under his influence.
Pastor Plans Toy Gun Buyback Program
St. Louis (KMOX) – While St. Louis Police Chief Sam Dotson is raising funds for a gun buyback program, Pastor Rodney Francis of the Washington Tabernacle Baptist Church wants to catch kids before they even think about wielding a weapon.
His church is planning a toy gun buyback later this summer.
Francis says there are no violent video games, gory movies or toy weapons in his family’s house.
“My wife and I feel that we need to do everything we can to not allow our kids to get exposed to this too early. They’re going to get exposed to it but we can protect them early on so they don’t get a distorted view of what those can do to the human body,” he explained.
“We want to engage the culture of violence and one of the strategies that we thought we might be able to use is to educate parents about the danger of allowing kids to continue this access to toy guns and playing with toy guns.”
