Challenging "Gun Free" Zones at the GRPC
Gun Watch ^ | 28 September | Dean Weingarten

Dr. John Edeen, above spoke as part of a panel on targeting "Gun Free Zones".   Dr. Edeen was not always part of the gun culture.   He grew up in New Jersey, but now practices medicine in San Antonio, Texas.

He started taking colleagues shooting, and talking about the dangerous "gun free" policy of the hospital where he works.   He ran into considerable opposition, but over the course of time, he has converted many.   He says that he has obtained over 400 signatures from coworkers on a petition for the Hospital to change its policy.

Massad Ayoob pointed out several instances where armed citizens had stopped mass shootings;  Chris Byrd, the author, gave an update on school districts who are arming teachers and staff in Texas.   Over 40 are doing so to date.



Argyle Independent School District (ISD) has posted these signs, which Chris showed to the conference attendees.

Gun Free Zones are becoming less popular than they once were.   Dr. Edeen noted that he received a large increase in signatures after Dr. Lee Silverman used his personal sidearm to stop the killing at Fitzgerald Hospital this last July.

I always ask those with “anti-gun” feelings what anti-gun propaganda affects them the most. When they hear the word propaganda in this negative light it begins the process of freeing them from Political Correctness.

Either that, or they'll start to defend gun laws even more vehemently, almost violently, depending on their state of mind.

As I told the manager of a Panera Bread, I ask him about concealed gun policy that Panera is doing. I told him if he thinks a criminal would obey it, he said no and if someone brings a concealed weapon in his store he won’t mind.

Contra the George Wills of the world there is no intellectual case for libtardism, its all propaganda and feelings that stem from that brain washing, and that is why they go violent. “You seem very emotional are you ok, you should seek help if it gets any worse.” Use it against them

That’s a great sign. I wish some real Conservatives would get into office here and repeal the BS gun laws so I can see one of those signs on a restaurant.
