Lib Rag: ‘Republicans Say You Should Be Able To Carry Guns Everywhere. This Proves They Don’t Mean It.’

Liberal news blog “Think Progress” published a post Monday disparaging the GOP and presidential front-runner Donald Trump for calling for the removal of “gun-free zones” while still banning firearms at “conservative places.”

The post asks “if conservatives are so convinced that gun-free zones attract killers, then why do so many conservative places and events ban guns?” and then lists a bunch of places where firearms are currently prohibited.

Which places made the list?

Trump National Golf Course, the Fox News GOP Debate back on Aug. 6, and Congress’ office buildings.

“Think Progress” continues its argument, claiming that “the vast majority of mass shootings don’t happen in gun-free zones. There’s also no evidence that a mass shooter ever chose his target because it prohibited firearms.”
