What Gun Control Advocates Fail to Grasp After Mass Shootings

Another horrifying attack and immediately gun control politicians and organizations are calling for more gun control laws. Former Vice President Joe Biden; Sens. Bernie Sanders, Kamala Harris, Cory Booker, Elizabeth Warren; Mayor Pete Buttigieg; former congressman Beto O'Rourke, and many others put out calls for more gun control within a few hours of the tragedy. The question of "How many more?" is a question that we ask ourselves all the time. Now the desire "to do something" is very understandable, but let's try to do something that matters.

Here is something that people might want to consider. Virginia Beach bans employees from being able to carry guns. While it was indeed possible for a civilian to enter the "Operations Building" where the attack occurred, the "Operations Building," as its name suggests, was a building where virtually only employees would be in.
