There might not be too many malls in Florida that ban permitted concealed handguns, but the Melbourne Square Mall where there was an attack that left one victim dead and one wounded was another gun-free zone. The Melbourne Square Mall is “a Simon Mall.” Yet, none of the news media have mentioned this point.

Winner, winner, chicken dinner!!

Until my permit contains a provision that I may not carry where posted, I’ll carry wherever I like that isn’t proscribed by law.

It may be a “supposed Gun free zone”, but I guarantee I used to carry there all the time when I lived in Melbourne, FL. Too bad someone like me was not there today. I lived there about 13 years, but now live in Colorado. There are many malls that have a policy of no guns, but no posted signs. Any non-federal facility (with metal detectors except maybe post office) will have to ask you to leave before legal interaction if found carrying, so I carry almost everywhere. These libs do not care about you or me, but I care about me.

Advertising a public place as “gun-free” is like a young woman placing a large sign on her property that says she lives alone.

This was a targeted kill. A gun free zone is probably the safest place to get the job done without interference.

Same here, if you conceal properly, there are no “gun free zones.”

I've said that over and over. There are plenty of obammys wanting to take over the U.S., but they
can only do it with the cover of a complicit press. I really hate them.
