Every holiday I have enjoyed, was knowing that nobody is armed. I can go to church and walk around town, knowing that it is a criminal offence to carry any weapon, including a knife. In my 74 years of living in the UK, I have never once carried or needed a weapon.

if it saves just one life to eliminate gun free zones,
Overwhelmingly young black and male. Nobody cares about them.People with guns kill thousands every year.
People with guns kill thousands every year.
And as you know, even more overwhelmingly, they are suicides.Overwhelmingly young black and male.
You just don't think things through enough. Rights: exist. You'd autocratically deny them their due, just because you stubbornly and ignorantly refuse to listen to anybody else but yourself.Ignore the thousands who die, rather recognise the sake of the 'One' who could be saved with a gun.
To save one life is good if everyone can own their guns. About eight-in-ten U.S. murders in 2021 – 20,958 out of 26,031, or 81% – involved a firearm.
However, if thousands of black males die, it does not seem to be a problem.Overwhelmingly young black and male. Nobody cares about them.

Hypocrite, comes to mind.
A gun is the weapon most commonly used in self defense.A gun is the weapon most commonly used in domestic homicides.
So you believe that people do not have the right to self defense because some people use guns wrongly?In fact, more than six times as many women are murdered by guns used by their current or former intimate partners than are killed by male strangers’ guns, knives or other weapons combined.
It's probably fair to say, most people buy a gun with the thought of self defence. You probably can't go into a gun store and say, I want a gun to kill people.So you believe that people do not have the right to self defense because some people use guns wrongly?
