it appears to me that the problem is that many companies have a 'no guns allowed on the premises' policy which is a stated failure. only people who follow the rules follow these policies.

obviously, the 'rule breakers' will simply trot out to their car to retrieve their favorite toy to do damage. and, since the worker bees have been effectively disarmed by the 'no guns allowed on company premises' policies, they are SITTING DUCKS waiting to be plucked, yes?
Excellent points.

I am nervous about being in public/private access buildings that have; "NO WEAPONS/HANDGUNS" notices plastered all over their entrances - when people entering the facility/property ARE NOT CHECKED for WEAPONS/HANDGUNS upon entering.

The shooter apparently felt that employing the 357 Magnum was the most viable option to settling the score.

The wounded and dead may have in fact earned their plight as shooting victims. Many people toy with giving others a hard time in the workplace. Many of them should think twice before doing so. Incidents like this should make some think twice on their behaviors toward others.
