Liberals love gun free zones because they invite mass murders. To the liberals, the higher the body count and the more frequent it happens, the merrier because they can use that to push for more gun control.

Liberals don't give a crap about anybody's life let along children. They are perfectly fine with murdering as many people as possible.

How many times do you have to be told the answer? You've been told many many times and yet you continue to ignore reality. You seem totally incapable of accepting the idea that your bias is completely wrong.

The CDC says a minimum of 500,000 defensive gun uses PER YEAR.

You want to read articles about them? Here are thousands:
https://www.nraila.org/gun-laws/armed-citizen/
http://thearmedcitizen.com/category/...tizen-stories/

How about a school shooting that was stopped by an ARMED principal before liberals made them "fun free zones"? https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Pearl_...chool_shooting

How about mass shootings stopped by armed civilians?
https://www.washingtonpost.com/news/...ass-shootings/

Of course NONE of this will sink in and you'll continue to parrot the party line that armed citizens never stop crimes.

You clearly have absolutely no idea what so ever how much training and practice police officers get with firearms. The average person who goes to the trouble to get a concealed carry permit is BETTER trained and practices MORE than the police. Criminals practice more than the police.

Welcome to reality.

I walked into a place for lunch the other day and on the door it said "this is a gun free establishment" and I just imagined myself as a criminal...

I honestly had to hold back my laughter. Oh, I guess I'll just go home with my gun then. I might have ended up shooting someone! I'm sure a lot of people feel safe when they see that sign, but they definitely should not.

Most of America is a "marijuana free" zone, how is that working out?

I'm going to have to disagree, I think criminals are more afraid of police. A cop has the authority to detain a person. If a criminal matched a description, the cop could stop him, ID him, check him for weapons or crack, does he have a warrant, is his car stolen. All things that could land him in jail. A regular gun carrying civilian can't do that.

I think they're equally afraid of getting shot, regardless of who has the gun.

"Honestly, how many armed citizens have prevented crimes."

I think I have referred you to the Armed Citizen site before.

Obliviously you NEVER looked at it, otherwise you wouldn't be asking such ignorant questions.
