It absolutely will. The vast majority of mass shooters target gun free zones, for obvious reasons. Just because they expect to die eventually doesn't mean they want to die right away. They want to be famous and feel powerful by killing as many people as possible. That is denied them if they are killed or wounded straight away.
> The best thing is to stop EASY PEASY access to guns that shoot more than one round at a time. The only guns licensed folks should be able to carry are ones that shoot one round and need to be reloaded again manually. Other guns should be simply banned for the GENERAL public.
- There is virtually zero chance of this happening
- There is zero evidence that policies which constrain the ammo capacities of guns used by law-abiding citizens has any effect on homicide rates
- Enacting such a policy would make guns significantly less effective for self-defense.
> This solution that has been proposed for years i.e for teachers and volunteers to carry concealed firearms is THE M0ST stupid solution that humanity has ever come up with.
If you could demonstrate some actual knowledge of the subject at hand, your opinion of whether some policy is "stupid" might actually matter to me.
There are gun control advocates in this discussion who have demonstrated some knowledge of this issue, and I respect their opinions more for it.
> It seems that some sections of our humanity aspire to live in a world where your right to LIVE depends upon how quick you are with your reflexes or how BIG of a gun you have.
It's really quite comical what you think is going on in the heads of other people.

- lliamander 4y agoI have given plenty of reasons for why that is a good idea. To another commentor I even cited a firearms and use-of-force expert to explain why this is a good idea. You have done nothing to respond to those arguments but sling insults. If you continue to insult rather than argue then expect to get flagged.
