Mall Shooting Fails to Reveal Mall’s Gun-Free-Zone Status
Naturally the media coverage would be biased in the direction of gun control… and against people being able to defend themselves. Read the article, It’s by John Lott.
also, see the post here on his blog. john notes on a separate post that google search results don’t bring up anything that would indicate that these shootings are occurring in ‘gun-free zones’. he asks “why?”, but i think that’s merely a rhetorical question.
On another post, he indicates that US Today ran a poll asking if the 2nd Amendment gives us the ‘right to bear arms’. Of course, most people - unless they’re absolutely clueless (and there are a few of them in those results [about 1449 out of 72,475]) - understand that yes, that’s what the 2nd Amendment that the media ignores, guarantees us. It’s the 2nd Amendment, after all, one of the top guarantees in our government documents.
