you are right I do evaluate any situation which guns are not allowed because if I were a criminal I would think "easy targets", but that is me, if it make you feel safer to be in a gun free zone, fine.

As to George Zimmerman, the only reason we even know that name is Al Sharpton and friends, otherwise we would have never heard of him or the case. What about the nameless people who have stopped crime with their guns who we don't hear about because they don't make the major news sources.

As to people who carry guns are delusional we feel the delusional ones are those who fear guns.

We both knew we would not change each other's mind nor that of any other reader. We should agree to disagree.
