Gun free zones are unarmed victim zones...which is why we see all these mass shootings at "gun free" schools.

It's clearly demonstrated (again) that college students aren't any smarter than the general population.

Before the 4/16/07 Virginia Tech massacre claimed 33, in Blacksburg, VA, the Luby’s Cafeteria 10/16/91 massacre in Killeen, TX claimed 24. Luby’s victim Lt. Col. Steven Charles Dody (511-48-0745): born on the first b’day of 1968 HEisMAN winner O.J. Simpson—7/9/48. Tommy Vaughn might have played football too. At 6’6”, 330 lbs, he used his body to break a Luby's plate glass window, creating an escape route. Unrelated: Virginia Mitchell as assistant to Cuyahoga Co. Prosecutor Stephanie Tubbs Jones

Before 4/16/07 Virginia Tech massacre claimed 33, in Blacksburg, VA: Luby’s Cafeteria 10/16/91 massacre in Killeen, TX claimed 24. First victim in Luby’s shootings was veternarian Michael Griffith. The index didn’t readily show him, but dying the same day was Laurence E. Griffith. The 8485 end of Griffith’s 478-16-8485 could evoke the 1984-85 school year and 1981 split.

banning guns is just avoiding the problem, and it may even make it worse, since criminals don't observe bans.
