Yes.....this is why I think we need new "Gun Free Zone" signs....they need to say "Gun Free Zone.....and we really, really mean it...."
NC Restaurant Banned Guns Got Robbed At Gunpoint The Daily Caller
A barbecue restaurant in Durham, North Carolina, was robbed at gunpoint on Sunday night, despite having posted a sign on the door banning weapons, including concealed firearms.
According to ABC 11, three men wearing hoodies and carrying pistols entered The Pit from the back, assaulted two of the employees and made others lie on the floor. The assaulted employees, though, are doing well.
“They’re doing great,” restaurant owner Greg Hatem said. “One of them actually went to the hospital and was released. They took a good look at him, he’s fine.”
Kind of interesting huh? It's almost like posting a sign that says "we are unprotected, come rob us!" I notice most mass shootings are in places where guns are not allowed and people can't shoot back. When was the last time you saw someone walk into a police station and open fire randomly?
It happens but it is really rare...the shooter has to have a really big beef with the police...and of course...they can shoot back.......
It's real rare and usually has more to do with 'suicide by cop' than a desire to get even with the fuzz. Put it this way. Let's say, just for the sake of argument (no one is actually talking about doing this), you got a wild hare up your ass and decided to go shoot up someplace random. Your goal is to create as much death and destruction as possible before you get killed yourself. ok...you are going to target a place where there are a lot of people and they are unarmed. You are going to target a school or a shopping mall...something like that. That maximizes your possible casualty rate and grants you power over the victims. You are not going to go somewhere where everyone else is packing heat. You are not going to attack the police station or the gun club because you are outgunned there. You have no power in those places...your opponents do.
Now a couple years ago in Portland, where I live, there was a guy who went into Clackamas Town Center during the Christmas season and opened fire into the food court. Casualties were low because the asshole couldn't shoot. Now let's get rid of all guns. It wouldn't have stopped that guy. Instead he would have thrown a couple pipe bombs from under his trench coat into the crowd. Now how many casualties are there?
I know I am preaching to the choir here, but this liberal attitude of "gun free zones" is just fucking hilarious. Yeah a guy has no problem breaking a law that prohibits murder, but boy he is sure going to respect that gun free zone. Give me a break.
They are ment to limit accidental shootings which they do.
