An opinion on gun control

Not mine. This is from Larry Correia. New York Times bestselling author, firearm instructor and former gun shop owner. The link leads to Monster Hunter Nation. He has trained some Utah teachers and wants them to be armed at school if they want to be. Part of his comment on gun free zones:Gun Free Zones are hunting preserves for innocent people. Period.Think about it. You are a violent, homicidal madman, looking to make a statement and hoping to go from disaffected loser to most famous person in the world. The best way to accomplish your goals is to kill a whole bunch of people. So where?s the best place to go shoot all these people? Obviously, it is someplace where nobody can shoot back.In all honesty I have no respect for anybody who believes Gun Free Zones actually work. You are going to commit several hundred felonies, up to and including mass murder, and you are going to refrain because there is a sign? That No Guns Allowed sign is not a cross that wards off vampires. It is wishful thinking, and really pathetic wishful thinking at that.

There is research shows a lot of disfunctional kids were prematurely born. Years ago they would not have survived.

Hardly surprising, since the occupants are there all the time, and intruders only very rarely.

That's not one bit "neutral".

If you want a truly neutral comparison, compare the number of injuries to occupants, divided by the hours occupants spent in the home, to the number of injuries to intruders, divided by the hours intruders spent in the home.

Or compare the number of injuries to occupants divided by the number of times that occupants handled guns, to the number of injuries to intruders divided by the number of times that occupants handled guns.
