President Joe Biden reacted to Monday’s murder in a University of North Carolina (UNC) at Chapel Hill gun-free zone by pledging to pursue more gun control and calling on Congress to do the same.
Biden posted:
This was the front page of UNC-Chapel Hill's Daily Tar Heel. No student, no parent, and no American should have to send texts like these to their loved ones as they hide from a shooter. I'll continue to do all I can to reduce gun violence and call on Congress to do the same.
Breitbart News reported that the shooting that killed a UNC faculty adviser occurred in a gun-free zone. Students with concealed carry permits are allowed to have guns in their cars, but those guns must be in locked containers.
In other words, apart from an allowance for a gun locked in a personal vehicle in a parking lot, the gun-free policy is a 100 percent gun ban on the campus and inside (or on) educational property.
The 100 percent gun ban did not prevent the shooting suspect from carrying a gun into a lab and shooting a faculty adviser dead.
Biden’s reaction is to push for more gun control.
