[quote]Rand Paul wants to repeal federal gun-free school zones

...

Sen. Rand Paul, R-Ky., introduced legislation on Thursday that would repeal a 1990 law banning guns from school zones, a move that fits with his push to arm teachers and other school personnel so they can prevent school shootings like the one that took place in Florida last month.

Paul's bill would repeal the Gun-Free School Zones Act of 1990 and all amendments to that law.[/quote]

I hope it passes. Gun free zones are open invitations for armed criminals who know there won't be anyone to stop them.

@TheProphet Is that why only 10% of mass shooting occur in gun free zones?

@OggggO 10 percent too much. ust proves my point.

@TheProphet How the fuck does it prove your point? More mass shootings happen outside them than in them, so clearly they aren't being specifically targeted.
TheProphet · M
@OggggO If there weren't any gun free zones the shooters might have been stopped. Obviously the shooters felt more comfortable there.

@TheProphet If shooters feel more "comfortable" in gun-free zones, then why are are nearly three times as many staging their rampages outside of them?
TheProphet · M
@OggggO Who knows what those fucked up people think.
OggggO · 36-40, M
@TheProphet Well, up until now, you claimed to.
TheProphet · M
@OggggO Never claimed to know what they were thinking, but obviously many though gun safe zones were good places. All school shootings take place in gun free zones though.

How do you expect anyone to take you seriously when you deny shit you just freaking said in the same comment thread?
TheProphet · M
@OggggO If you take what I said out of context.

All mass shootings occur in gun free zones, particularly when there is a sign stating it's a gun free zone. Example, the Colorado theatre shooter passed 4 theatres to shoot up the only one who had a sign stating it was a gun free zone. The other threatres allowed concealed guns. The left doesn;t like the cold hard facts and tries to obscure those facts by lumping in murder suicides in private homes in with mass shootings. They are not mass shootings, they are murder suicides.

@katielass Take out the home shootings, which make up 63% of the shootings on EveryTown’s list, and the gun-free zone shootings, which are 10%, and that still leaves 27% which are neither in a home nor a gun-free zone. Just shy of 3 times as many as in gun-free zones.
