You’re absolutely right. All the mass shootings happen in ‘gun free zones’. Obama’s own justice department, which clearly was for gun control, found that between 500,000 and 1million shooting incidents per year were prevented from escalating into mass shooting events because of armed civilians. Imagine even a quarter of those weren’t prevented! Also, the OP mentions britain and I believe they have a lot of knife crime instead. Take away people’s guns and they’ll find other weapons to use instead
