Will tougher Gun Laws reduce the number of mass shootings and killings in our Country?

Criminals do not obey laws. If gun control actually worked, Chicago and Washington D.C. were be herald as the safest places on earth!

It will not. In fact, in my opinion, the more "gun free zones" that are created, the potential for increased mass shootings goes up. These are ripe zones for mass shootings as only the criminals will have the firepower and nobody to stop them until cops arrived. Also remember, cops do NOT carry guns to protect you. They carry guns to protect themselves....says something doesn't it?? They carry guns to protect themselves..... seldom do they arrive at the scene of a crime where the crime is still going on. They arrive to investigate the crime. If the bad guy is still there, they will arrest/shoot (as determined as by actions/reactions). If the crime scene is a mass shooting and you were in the wrong place at the wrong time, you are already dead. Cop did nothing to protect you. Only investigate and help mop up.
