Gun policies aside, I've always seen advertising areas as gun-free zones as like walking around in D.C. advertising yourself as unarmed and carrying cash. It has to be one of the most remarkably stupid "safety initiatives" in human history.

I agree that enforcement is required as an additional deterrent.
How would you do that without violating "privacy"?

I was pondering the same thing, and the only thing that came to mind is doing what many federal buildings do: have an X-ray machine at every doorway, along with a couple of cops, 24/7. What an expensive hassle! X|

I like his views. I was wondering if this incident would further motivate people to speak up against and vote for law makers wanting to ban guns or further restrict their use. However I am seeing evidence to the contrary which is excellent. I'm glad there are people like him to have more sense than those gun grabbers.

Nearby is fine. If he wants to setup residence in the doorway, he damn well better bring some chips and a six-pack. And take a walk between 8 and 9 - that's me time.

So just guessing
Yeah....I'll say. I'll apply my own made-up number. Since college students are poor (and guns are bullets are expensive) and tend to be more liberal, there will likely be far fewer guns when compared to the general population. This figure will therefore be reduced by a factor of two, thus offsetting your increased factor of two. I found that in 2004, about 30%[^] of murders committed were because of an "argument" (which I would classify as a crime of passion). So my arbitary guess of 25% was very close.
You recently stated that gun ownership per capita is down over the past five decades. The number of homes with a gun has decreased from 50% of homes to 35%. The link you provided here shows homicides dropped almost 50% from their peak in 1991, at the same time as gun ownership was also falling, thus proving that less guns equals less murders and a safer America. Good on ya, mate.

Yeh I am against gun control. The founding fathers had a good reason for the 2nd amendment - they spelled it out really well. I don't know why people have such trouble reading these days.

You're joking, right? Without examining any other contributing factors you're ready to put the drop in murder rate entirely on a drop in gun ownership? That's bad science.

With students? Barely post-teenagers with raging hormones, shitty judgement, and little perspective? I don't know about that. All I know is that if I were at Virgina Tech that day, I would have wanted to be armed and well-trained in the use of my firearm. *shrug* I can't comment on the whole should there be more guns/should there be less guns thing you guys have going on down there because I don't really understand the dynamics of your society, and frankly, there's good arguments on all sides. But I wouldn't want my only option in that situation to be playing dead. Pardon my French, but fuck that. I'm currently in the process of being registered to own and use unrestricted firearms (not because of the VT thing, but for backcountry protection against bears in northern BC). Frankly, I'm more likely to come across a bear than I am a handgun anyway. I don't know if that's a good or a bad thing :).

Just make sure you buy a big friggin' gun. Small caliber guns will just irritate the bear...
