Columbine.

Virginia Tech.

Fort Hood.

What do all of these shootings have in common? The answer is they all occurred in government facilities where the private possession of firearms was prohibited.]

In Washingtonlace>, unconstitutional legislation is commonplace. But sometimes unconstitutional laws can have deadly consequences. The so-called “gun free school zones act,” written by radical anti-gun Senator Heb Kohl, is one such law.Slammed through in 1996 as an amendment to a giant last-minute must-pass appropriations bill, the legislation disarmed school staff and other adults – leaving elementary and secondary school children defenseless to serial killers.

It also made it virtually impossible to drive your car down the street with your gun inside without violating the law by creating a 1000-foot so-called “gun-free zone” around every public and private school in the country.
“Gun free,” that is, except for the criminals.

No one – including politicians, the police, or the individual citizen – can predict where the next deranged serial killer will attack. And yet politicians continue to create “criminal safe zones” such as schools, churches, parks, restaurants that serve alcohol, etc., where the law-abiding are disarmed.The net impact of turning schools, in particular, into defenseless targets for serial killers has been dramatic.

When many people over the age of 40 were growing up, ROTC students would march up-and-down high school campuses with their semi-automatic M1’s – and no one would think anything of it. Shooting clubs on school grounds were also not uncommon.

But within a couple a years of the enactment of the Kohl amendment, two disaffected teenagers walked into lace> secure in the knowledge that they would be the only ones in the school who were armed.

And, of course, Columbine triggered a slew of copycat episodes – laying a mounting string of innocent casualties at the feet of Herb Kohl and his misbegotten legislation.
It’s time to say NO to criminal safe zones. And a great place to start is the blatantly unconstitutional gun free school zones act.

Thankfully, Congressman Ron Paul (R-TX) agrees and has introduced legislation to do just that.
Rep. Paul recently introduced the “Citizens Protection Act of 2011” (H.R. 2613), which will repeal the Kohl amendment and thus remove the federally created criminal safety zones.
Rep. Paul is one of the few members of Congress who respects the Constitution and who actually introduces legislation to restore federalism. And, unlike some legislators, Paul has a history of forcing the House to vote on his pro-gun proposals, thus putting other congressmen on record.
is proud to stand with Rep. Paul in the effort to repeal the unconstitutional gun free zones law. For anyone who cares about liberty, now is the time to work on getting the 218 votes we need to pass this important piece of legislation.
ACTION: Contact you congressman. Urge him or her to cosponsor Ron Paul’s Citizens Protection Act of 2011, H.R. 2613.

Psychos do not care about legislation, death penalties, or consequences

[muldoon]

Was that roller rink shooting last week in Austin Tx a designated gun free zone?

This might make a difference

Fuk all politicians...especially the grandstanding fuk paul

Lets park a Humvee with a .50 caliber machine gun and rocket launchers outside every government building. We will all be safer.

[Fieldysnuts44]

I dont remember any of my teachers carrying guns to school,and i doubt that any of the teachers at Columbine or very few schools carried weapons ob school grounds regardless of legislation.They seemed to be random acts of cowardly violence,doubt that legislation had anything to do with their acts.

I mean seriously, how high and drunk was Ron Paul when he came up with this shit.

We have the constitutionally protected right to carry in America. If teachers were strapped overall body counts become much lower in these tragedies. Some people just don't see the big picture. PAul does

You're brainwashed

There's probably a minimum 1000 times better chance that some idiot teacher kills a student or coworker accidentally than intervenes in one of these attacks.

This just in: not all teachers are geniuses in today's educational system

[topgame85]

How are the people who are in support of the law of the land (constitution) and against government micro management of our lives and decisions "brainwashed." Teachers are not Einstein's but until an amendment to the constitution is made eliminating the right to bear arms people should be allowed to carry as they please. I am not a liberal all for one one for all type person only care about protecting me and mine at all costs, if someone else gets shot coming at me my family little kids or women I'll be happy to let them meet a quick end.

[InTheDrink]

That was actually in reference to your Paul does comment.

Changing this law will have no bearing on better protecting school children. It's irrelevant and it's only thrown on the table so that message boards across the country can sing Pauls praises. Another great pr move by team Paul.

[pavyracer]

You want teachers to learn how to use a pistol correctly and carry it on a holster during class? You do realize that just because the constitution says you have a right to bear arms it doesn't mean that everyone has to carry one concealed and learn how to use it. There is a reason they send the SWAT teams in emergencies and don't go to the town square and ask for people who carry guns to intervene. It requires tremendous training to know how to use a firearm especially in a closed environment in a hostage situation.
