Re: Victim Disarmament Zones and Ideas to Prevent Mass Shootings

Just saw this and I think it goes along with what I am trying to say to some extent:


Quote:
If our lawmakers, including the President, won’t step up and make significant changes in gun laws, in gun registration, background checks, mental health, if gun purchases continue to grow and flood the streets, it makes me wonder that by some of us not owning a gun, or at least embracing the idea of one, are we setting ourselves up to be victims in a movie theater, a school, a public building, most of all in our streets, in our own neighborhoods, and in our own homes.

And armed with just our cellphones, our fists and our wits, are we setting ourselves up to be sitting ducks, defenseless in the face of a sane, or an insane person, armed to the teeth and bent on killing.
REALITY CHECK: Let’s Talk About Guns | Black America Web

As much as some people may love to dream about background checks for private sales that make you feel good but do nothing, assault weapon bans that ban guns based only off of they way they look, amazing mental health laws that stop every nut bag from getting a gun, and other emotionally charged ideas of saving everyone from guns, the reality is our gun laws probably wont change that much over the next 50 years.

Our lawmakers wont "step up" and save us all because they cant. Not even our lord and savor Obama. And since they cant.... doesn't that mean we are setting ourselves up to be sitting ducks with these no gun zones? The reality of the world we live in means guns are always going to be around no matter how much you like it or don't like it. Armed with that information, why would it ever be a good idea to have a "no gun zone"?
