Alas, yet again, another fatal shooting is consistent with evidentiary data on fatal shootings.
The Gun-Free Zone Myth: No relationship between Gun-Free Zones and Mass Shootings .. excerpt ..
"Neither the motive nor the location of a mass shooting, therefore, have anything to do with ‘gun-free zones.’
Instead, data clearly show that a killer’s motives are reliably tethered to the source of their grievances and prejudices: workplaces, schools, religious institutions, and so forth. [emphasis here] Mass shooters are simply not the calculating, death-optimizing machines that gun proponents depict them to be. Twelve of the sixty-two mass shootings surveyed took place at a school, and in all but one of them, the killer had direct ties to the school they targeted. Twenty of the sixty-two mass shootings occurred at the workplace, and each involved disgruntled employees taking their grievances out on employers and colleagues. And according to a study done by Mayors Against Illegal Guns, in 57% of mass shootings, the shooter targeted a former or current intimate partner.
These statistics seriously challenge the case that mass shooters dispassionately pursue vulnerable, target-rich environments to maximize their number of fatalities, and are instead shaped by motives directly related to their past." http://investorshub.advfn.com/boards/read_msg.aspx?message_id=114824223
and you, rooster, with fellow NRA inclined anti-gun control ilk continue to believe, and say - in spite of having been informed of the contrary over and over and over again.
How much repetition of history do American families have to suffer before NRA-like lovers question their (your) own irrational gun-overflow attitudes?
