>>Modern "liberals" see the words "gun-free (or nuclear free, in the case of Berkeley) zone" and somehow thinks that this magically makes the place safer. But the sign that mass murderers see is "free-fire zone of unarmed victims."<<

Bill -

I don't think you really know what "modern liberals" think. I can assure you that most of us don't believe in magic.

One thing I do know is that the guy who shot up the Virginia Tech campus wasn't thinking about whether or not anyone else on campus might have a gun. He wasn't thinking clearly at all. Crazy people will do crazy things, and nobody with any sense has any illusion that society can somehow prevent that from ever happening.

Making it easier for crazy people to get guns doesn't make the rest of us any safer.
