Alright, maybe not the dumbest but this doesn't make any practical sense at all. I watched this video from Venezuela which discusses how there are gun free zones everywhere but murders are way up and the country is in collapse (see below). Can someone explain to me how this actually saves lives? It seems to me that gun free zones not only strip law-abiding citizens of the power to defend themselves but it encourages criminals. How? Criminals, by definition, ignore the law so all "gun free zones" do is advertise that there is no one who will be able to resist them in that area. Where am I wrong?
