Pratt: The Facts Are Clear — More Guns in Schools Mean Fewer School Shootings

A year ago this week, the nation witnessed a horrible shooting at the Santa Fe High School in Texas. Ten people were killed; several more were wounded.

The mainstream media treated the country to a week-long diatribe regarding the supposed evils of firearms.

Of course, if one were to only listen to Democrat presidential hopefuls like California Rep. Eric Swalwell, one would think that every mass shooting is carried out with a so-called “assault weapon.”

Swalwell even said that he wants to confiscate many commonly-owned firearms. And those who refuse, he says, would go to jail.

Not that it would have done any good to confiscate AR-15 style firearms before the Santa Fe shooting. The killer there used a shotgun and a snub-nosed revolver. Ditto for last week’s shooting at Colorado’s STEM School Highlands Ranch, where the killers used handguns.
