Earlier this month, another tragic shooting occurred on the grounds of a church.  A minister and deacon were shot at the Ninth Street Baptist Church in northern Kentucky when they arrived to attend a funeral.  Rev. Donald Fairbanks died from the injuries he sustained.

CNN.com recently published an article about the utilization of armed security guards in houses of worship.  They also posted an interesting (and humbling) interactive map of recent church shootings.  Click here to link to the map.
