Another Gun-Free Zone Success

We had a late-night armed robbery (at gunpoint) in my building this week. The same scumbag apparently hit another building on campus two weeks ago. As one commenter at the campus newspaper put it, "So much for weapon bans making us safe... "

As long ago as the 18th century, some people understood the futility of disarming the law-abiding. Do you suppose that those who want to disarm the law-abiding today are as ignorant as they pretend to be, or do you think that they have some hidden agenda, which has nothing to do with public safety?

I vacillate between ignorance and agenda, but lean more in the direction if ignorance. Even I sometimes get twinges of apprehension when my husband is handling weapons in the house, so I can understand how someone who has never been around firearms could feel like guns are unsafe, period, even though that's irrational.
