    Bars are also gun free zones, like any place that serves alcohol. Schools are prime targets because everyone knows that they are gun free zones. Many workplaces are gun free zones.

They are not your avowed enemies, the police and government. Just kids, who are victims of shooters. Perhaps you could control your anger then,
    I already replied to your "makeup shit". You clearly don't care about kids. All you care about is guns.

    Better start giving up murdering people for Lent - or at least cut it down to, say, a hundred a day.

All gun control laws do is make it more difficult for the intended victims to fight back.

    It's the cult of guns, plus all the film and television shootings I should think. And of course, bullied people will always try to find means to defend themselves. With us kids have started carrying knives in a big way. The answer is to stamp out bullying.

    There were a mass of cops in that area. He did not scout it. He shot his sister in places he had frequented.
    I don't know that bars are gun free zones. They have bouncers and cops hanging around. Cops killed that guy in less than a minute. Not exactly gun-free was it?

    You are the one with the cultish beliefs. It appears as if you believe that guns are mystical murder machines, that they either jump up and kill people all by themselves or they take over people's minds and force them to murder. Stamping out bullying is the first rational thing you've said. So what are you going to do now, ban knives?

So, yes, acute paranoia is just about right.
    I like that you mentioned the homicide rate. Liberals love to talk about "gun deaths" as if they are somehow more sinister than knife deaths or hammer deaths or car deaths. It's a part of their fundamental dishonesty, similar to the way they will never call illegal immigrants illegal. They're all just immigrants.

    Cops can usually ignore gun free zones. Depending on state law, places that serve alcohol are likely to be gun free zones.

    I think it's mostly a result of their extreme paranoia about guns. They are unable to deal rationally with anything to do with guns.

    What is rational is the comparison between your murder rate and any other rich society. Yes, of course we'll ban knives if they are being used to do murder..

    Well, they are different. Perhaps that is the reason. Knives have always been used as weapons. But it is local and small scale. Want to crank out some deaths and spray a person with bullets ,it is modern rifles and guns that do the job. You can kill from a distance. You can drill lots of holes in a second. You can wipe out a room. You can kill everyone in a bar.
    It is not hard to figure out why guns are different than knives.

    Dead is dead and murder is murder. We've been over this before. A truck was used to kill far more people than any mass shooter. Let's ban trucks.
