Re: Mercy Hospital Chicago shooting
Repeal all gun free zones as unconstitutional...repeal so much of the gun laws...we've tried this State mandated restriction of RKBA for 50 years and because we are not a moral and religious people, malice between mankind swells into violence.Chicago Mercy Hospital, the site of Monday’s heinous shooting, is a state-mandated gun-free zone.
Moreover, Mercy’s parking lot–the spot where the shooting began–is mandate gun-free as well.
Gabby Giffords’ gun control website noted that Illinois’ hospitals and hospital parking lots are off-limits for concealed carry of firearms as recently as September 13, 2018. The language of the state’s concealed carry law prohibits carrying a firearm in “any building, real property, and parking area under the control of a public or private hospital or hospital affiliate, mental health facility, or nursing home.”
Three people were killed when 32-Juan Lopez ignored the gun-free policy. Those three Dr. Tamara O’Neal, pharmaceutical assistant Dayna Less, and Chicago Police Officer Samuel Jimenez. (Jimenez was shot and fatally wounded while responding to reports of shots fired.)

Re: Mercy Hospital Chicago shooting
Ah yes, another successful gun-free zone. Too bad about the innocent folk and newly minted police officer that got killed. Just more victims of "gun violence". Need to ban more guns.
