The whole point is that gun advocates routinely argue that if guns were allowed in certain areas. then potential mass murders would avoid those areas for fear of being shot at. But this Oregon shooting contradicts that argument.

1: The school policy kept the security unarmed.

2: When the people carrying are nowhere near the action, how the fuck does your point stand up? It doesn't.

I happened to be in Oregon when this went down....AND I had a gun on me. Why didn't I even try to stop this shit from happening? Oh yeah, because I wasn't in the room with the gunman...and neither were any of the others who were armed and on campus. BUT, had the campus had a less Nazi like policy, others who could have made a difference may have done so.
