Our last entry here touched on \u201cgun-free zones,\u201d and whether the theater where the latest mass-murder atrocity took place guaranteed its premises to be a safe hunting preserve for the mad dog killer who wrought horror there. In blog commentary, I was asked if I could provide a link to confirm that the establishment where it happened, and its parent chain Cinemark, forbade law-abiding armed citizens to legally carry firearms there.

Debate over whether a court would determine that the \u201cguns forbidden\u201d policy carried power of law seems moot: we\u2019re talking practical reality here. Most of us go by the common sense precept, \u201cDo not go where you are not wanted.\u201d Armed citizens who could have stopped the killer were clearly notified by the company policy that \u201cthey were not welcome there.\u201d
\nWhen you make potential rescuers unwelcome, do not blame those potential rescuers for not being there when the disaster happens, and the death toll mounts because what could have stopped the killing has been banned from your establishment.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
