A new study by the Crime Prevention Research Center (CPRC) found that, “92% of mass public shootings between January 2009 and July 2014 took place in gun-free zones.”
The study confirms the common sense of most Americans, disarming good, honest citizens only helps criminals inflict more damage.
Many media outlets are politicizing the recent shootings in an effort to increase the amount of gun-control.
The study rebukes their claims by stating, “Mass public shootings, where the shooter intends to commit mass murder in a public place, has not ‘exploded’ over the last few years, as frequently claimed in the media.”
There will always be criminals in this world who want to harm innocent people. The question that must be answered is: “Are we going to allow people to protect themselves when these attacks happen?”
The study unequivocally proves that gun-free zones do far more harm than good.
