Here’s something to think about. The Gun Free Zone Bill.

A. Any person, organization or entity, or any agency of government that creates a gun-free zone shall be liable for damages resulting from criminal conduct that occurs against an individual in such gun-free zone, if a reasonable person would believe that possession of a firearm could have helped the individual defend against such conduct…

I’ll be giving this some thought. At first glance I’d have to agree with the concept. I’ve always thought that posted gun-free zones were a bad idea. I have no problem with a lack of guns, but by defining an area or business as gun-free, you’re defining a safe target for someone who is interested in committing crime. Who in their right mind would put a sign on their house that said “This home safe to burglarize, even if we’re home!” That’s essentially what a gun-free zone does.
