At some point you would think the media would notice that something is going on here, that these murderers aren’t just picking their targets at random. . . . .

The media notice and report accurately? Surely you jest.

Shouldn’t Fox News learn how to properly spell Binghamton?

Rather than making places safe for victims, we unintentionally make them safe for the criminal.

Been saying this for years about the "sex-offender-free" zones. Makes parents feel safe so they relax their guard and...

Thank you for posting.

Everybody in my office KNOWS about the Glock 19 in my briefcase.

Secretly, they want it there

[uncommonsense]

Yep. Look at Wash DC. Tough gun restrictions, lots of people killed with guns. Didn’t I just read Canada is ditching their gun bans since it doesn’t reduce gun violence?

Thank you Mr. Lott. I won’t hold my breath to see if your analysis is on any other so-called “news” outlet.

Might be worth your while to check out the “American Civic Association” where the people were murdered. It is leftwing.

Tomorrow I go to take my CCW class! Woo-hoo!

There’s another interesting correlation - psychoactive medications. This was posted in another thread. Take a look here:

Has anybody noticed any better availability for large purchases of ammo (mostly military)?
Most everyone was out when I checked a few weeks ago...

“Gun Free Zones” are “gun free” except for when people bring guns there.

Thank you for all you do.

#1 ... I’ve given up worrying about how to spell Binghamton, I’ve had to CHange my name to make it easier... they screw that one up, too.

#2 New York Officials Idea of Self defense is ... Help the burglar Carry out YOUR TV to their truck.

#3 All the GUN LAWS in the world, INCLUDING COnfiscation, would NOT have Stopped this Individual... to say so, is not only foolhardy ... it’s downright STUPID.

Looks like another secondary factor is all the cops and other grown-ups with guns and badges that surround the scene to make sure no hero rushes in to save anybody.

Bump - are you the same Lott who wrote More Guns, Less Crime?

[bamahead]

The mainstream media do see it, they just don’t report it. Their ultimate goal is the unilateral disarmament of all law abiding citizens.

Only then can the state be the only means of personal protection of thei subjects lives. The subjects themselves must not yield this power. Just another measure of control.

Not to mention the other obvious reasons that the state wants to disarm law abiding patriots.

Great article and analysis as always...

WHEN are people (other than those who read these forums) going to realize that the police are WORTHLESS to protect citizens from bad things happening?

Are our "leaders" -- people in power that stupid, or are they just so fearful of an armed citizenry (or both)?

WHEN is the unarmed citizenry going to wake up and realize that they, and they alone, are responsible for their own safety and become an ARMED CITIZENRY?
