Gun Owners of America praised Massie’s push, saying, “Congress needs to abandon the failed federal gun-free schools policy & arm willing teachers instead!”
The day after a trans shooter opened fire on a Minneapolis Catholic school, Breitbart News pointed to a Crime Prevention Research Center (CPRC) report noting that the attacker sought out a gun-free zone on purpose. In his manifesto, the trans shooter made clear he wanted to attack a place where people would be “unarmed” as they were when James Holmes attacked a gun-free movie theater in Aurora, Colorado, in 2012.
