Agreed. Furthermore, every article like this should highlight how many times per day/year that firearms in the hands of citizens are used to prevent violent crime. According to out own DoJ statistics! Some say up to 4 million!!!
Furthermore, in 2005 the SCOTUS had ALREADY RULED in Castle Rock v Gonzalez that the POLICE have NO LEGAL OBLIGATION to PROTECT PRIVATE CITIZENS! Even when notified! (Even after they disarm us!)

...yet somehow the schools and other gun free zones have NO RESPONSIBILITY for the safety of those they disarm and require to be there. This needs to get tested in court.
