Gun-Free Zones are Deadliest Spaces

gun-free+zone06Posted by Tina

Stanford has been collecting data on mass shootings in America, defined as 3 or more victims injured or killed, since 2002. Shootings that are gang or drug related are not included in the dataset. Fifty-four of 153 incidents involved shooters who were not related to or adversaries of the victims. Of those fifty-four incidents 69%occurred in gun free zones. In areas where guns were allowed shootings occurred 31% of the time and of those 29% were ended when “the gunman was stopped or slowed by a gun permit holder’s intervention.”

Looks like we need more well trained, responsible permit holders.

    As has been proven in numerous states unfortunately, a gun-free zone is a target-rich environment.
    I like what Oklahoma is doing . . . . .

    I do too J.

    I like Superintendent Charles McMahan’s position: “We don’t want to be a soft target.”

    Islamic Terrorists, Today!

    by John Farnam | 12 Feb 2016 | 2016

    Islamic Terrorist Attack Today, within CONUS. They’re here!

    “Personal weapons, carried concealed, are a source of comfort when you’re not fighting, essential when you are!”

    Kahn

    In Columbus, OH early this morning a Somali man by the name of Mohammad Barry entered a restaurant, named “Nazareth,” and started attacking diners at random with a machete. Four innocent patrons were seriously injured before Barry fled.

    Local police subsequently confronted Berry after a short chase. They fired at him when he aggressed them with the same machete. Barry was DRT. No officers injured.

    Comment:

    Barry was likely an illegal alien. His “immigration status” was not reported. Of course, liberals insist we’re not supposed to care.

    To those maimed, “lone wolf” and “known terrorist ties” are both hollow, cynical terms, nonchalantly used by the smug media to advance an agenda that insists Islamic terrorism really doesn’t exist.

    Islamic terrorists are here in great numbers, thanks to the fact that our immigration laws have never been enforced by the BHO Administration, due mainly to their continuing effort to promote voter fraud.

    Motivated Islamic terrorists are, obviously, here and poised to strike, as they did this morning, at any time, and anywhere within CONUS.

    Places frequented by Christians and Jews will continue to be specific targets! We are becoming like Israel.

    Welcome to 2016!

    Who venture out unarmed are fools, with a death-wish!

    “… Some have faced the mortal threat
    who came prepared – they’re with us yet.
    Others choose to go unarmed
    and hope that they’ll return unharmed.
    A few have failed nature’s test
    and entered their eternal rest.
    So good fellows, I suggest today
    bring pistol on your way.
    That’s my advice if you would heed it –
    You never know when you will need it!”

    Harris
