Anti-gun groups who have been campaigning in Mississippi against HB 786, aka the “Mississippi Church Protection Act,” are furious today after the state senate held a vote on the bill.

The bill, which would allow for armed security in places of worship, all concealed carry without a permit (constitutional carry), and seeks to nullify some federal gun laws was passed by a vote of 36-14.

The bill is an amended version of the original so must now go back to the House for another vote.  [Ed. note:  The constitutional carry provision already passed the House once, on February 17.]
