Gun Free Zones "Magnet for Evil" - clearly explained

This known solution to prevent school or church shootings:
Where this has been done, there have not been any attacks. This could be used in any soft target location, church, business, school, etc.:
  1. Ban "gun free zones"
  2. Amongst the staff of any establishment, there are Licensed To Carry. This could be teachers, staff, employees
  3. Offer training to those who would volunteer to be armed
  4. Only a limited number of people would know who they are
  5. A lot are not needed, only a few
  6. Post a sign like this
  7. The shooters are in large nothing but COWARDS. They would not enter a building so protected. They attack gun free zones knowing they would meet no resistance. A single armed guard is of little help. An attacker can know who that is and avoid contact or attack that person first.
  8. Where this has been done, it works!
  9. Many churches and businesses now INSIST that LTC holders work and are on the premises. People who are not licensed can now feel safe
  10. The blood of the children is on the hands of those who insist on gun-free zones - Who should be held liable? - and Discussion
In almost every mass school shooting, the perp was known to police and school personnel as a very troubled individual who in many cases signaled his intentions, but due to a variety of reasons, was not challenged or stopped.
Dis-arm the law abiding citizen, leave this up to the police? (Notice some who say this are the same ones who say "defund the police"). It didn't work in Uvalde! The police were in the building and yet tragedy struck.

How it's proposed to be done


Nikki Goeser's husband was brutally murdered by her stalker in 2009 in the middle of a restaurant.
The restaurant was a gun-free zone.
Because of that, she could not carry a firearm to protect her husband from the stalker. She had to leave her firearm in the car.

Nikki Goeser: "I was stalked and defenseless but I tell people look gun-free zones are a magnet for evil. I truly believe these people, whether it is a mass public shooter or a stalker, anyone with evil intent…gun free zones scream these people are absolutely helpless there defenseless, there vulnerable and what better place to attack."

When the second amendment was written, there was no such thing as a police department. Every city, every town, had their own local militia which would stand up in times of war or be called upon by the locals to catch criminals or fight off attackers. The towns and cities were self-reliant and it was expected that every able-bodied man would know how to shoot and use a gun so they could defend not only themselves but their community. The first police force wasn't created until 60 years later, and even then only in Boston. It took almost a century before America had anything like what we have today. So the 2nd amendment was not intended for the Police. It was intended for every person who wanted to defend their home, their community, their country. This guy has it right. Completely. We can't rely on the Police, they won't ever be there fast enough. Instead, we need to be ready to do it ourselves, if needed. Home invasions often lead to injury or death for the homeowner. This criminal had a history that basically made it a matter of time until he accidentally killed someone. I'd rather the criminal die than the innocent home owner.
