This would be hysterical if it wasn't so deadly serious.
From the article:
"[H]e was spotted by the Master of Ceremonies, Mr Barnaba Matuech Anei who was next to the cardinal, who caught and disarmed him. He was then handed over to the security guards who had missed him earlier."
Let's hear it for Masters of Ceremonies!
That's one BA MC.
This is one of the most incredible blog post titles I've ever seen!
Proven again:
Where would the world be without us MCs!
🙂
Adam is right, if this wasn't serious, it would be hilarious!
The version of the story I had read didn't mention the liturgical dancers. Can the Church make the case that they're a security issue? It works fine for the TSA.
Security issues – yes; good point. As if we need yet another reason to eliminate liturgical dance! Tragedy averted thanks be to God and the trusted MC.
