Mass Shootings & WMD


In considering the recent, becoming rarer, mass shootings, all should consider the above-cited information that most such massacres are inflicted in "Gun Weapon Free Zones".

In other words, in such places as prohibit law-abiding (And presumed legally sane) citizens from carrying (Concealed) firearms as would allow some defense against terrorists.

There is a WMD, which has been used in the USA and costing less than $10.00, which can murder tens-to-hundreds and that without any assembly or technical ability. I know of other WMD which, with some (Not great) expense and mechanical knowledge, can massacre thousands. (For obvious reasons I do not describe these WMD.)                          


NOTES
A. George Washington: "The very atmosphere of firearms anywhere and everywhere restrains evil interference). ---they deserve a place of honor with all that is good.";  "Firearms are second only to the Constitution in importance; they are the peoples' liberty teeth"
B. Benjamin Franklin: Democracy is two wolves and a lamb voting on what to have for lunch. Liberty is a well-armed lamb contesting the vote.” ;  “They who can give up essential liberty to obtain a little temporary safety deserve neither liberty nor safety.”
C. President James Madison: "The Constitution preserves the advantage of being armed which Americans possess over the people of almost every other nation where the governments are afraid to trust the people with arms.
