Letter: Gun-free zones won’t deter shooters
To the editor:
As the anti-gunners like to trumpet, there are over 400 million guns in the United States, and approximately 50,000 gun-related deaths a year. Therefore, for every gun involved in a death, there are over 8,000 guns that do no harm and may do some good by stopping crime. Why burden their responsible owners with ineffective laws?
Those bent on mayhem and murder seek out so-called 'gun free' zones where they know no one can shoot back. The best way to end mass shootings is posting signs that read "Notice! Our staff is trained and armed!"
