How do you not understand these criminals seek out places were they can predate at will and do so uncontested?
Keeping the door is locked, is to keep the honest people out..

Anyways, I understand the argument both for Gun-Free Zones and also the right to carry anywhere. It's more so a feel good type of zone, I support them to some extent.

Tell me exactly what you are proposing to be banned and why.. Please be very specific, because I don't think you have a clue what you are talking about. I don't think you know what a military grade weapon is.

Why? There has not been a case of a legally obtained military grade weapon used in any shootings or other illegal activities. The weapons of this type have all been obtained from sources that would not be affected by a ban in the US, or through sources that are already violating laws prohibiting transfer of such weapons.

The only way to eliminate the availability is to eliminate the manufacture, and then what would you expect the army to use to keep those nasty invaders from Mars out?

I am talking about public and private institutions that take tax payer dollars..Why should they be allowed to deny the right and means to self defense?

Futhermore do you agree that any business or institution public or private will have the right to exclude weapons from their premises and by doing so they accept strict liability for protecting their employees, customers and visitors?

It may have been clear back then but they didn't know the future. If they knew the future I doubt there would have been the 2nd amendment.
