After Columbine gun free zones were created, they are NOT working
Every massacre at a school since Columbine has been done by people using weapons they were not allowed to possess, all apparently had serious mental issues
all were 18 to 25 years old. Semi auto weapons with 30 rd magazines have been around since ww2 and are not the weapons used in a majority of murders
According to an anti gun survey conducted during the Clinton administration guns were used over 4,000 times a day or close to 1.5 million times a year, yet we only hear about the people who do the crimes with weapons they shouldn't have and how banning legal owners of guns will stop crime, why ? It is time to protect our children with the same forces used to protect our money and airplanes, there are plenty of well trained vets that are perfectly qualified to provide protection for our greatest asset and many are looking for work, This atrocity is just another example of what does not work .
