Responsible or not, people also need to realize that which is physically impossible: it is impossible for LEO to be everywhere at all times.

There are limits on what the law and government agencies can do to protect the public. Though I’ve been a cop for 30 years, nearly every day of which has been spent on the streets of Los Angeles, I can recall only a handful of times when I was able to interrupt a violent crime in progress, either by responding quickly to a radio call or by coming across it randomly while on patrol. You’ve heard the expression: when seconds count, the police are minutes away. It’s trite but no less true.

Another tangential point to consider is the law of unintended consequences, that is do you end up hardening one target at the expense of others? Meaning, the lunatic might skip the known hardened target(the school with armed LEO) for a softer target(pizza shop down the block during lunch) with the same devastating effect(granted CCW could come into play here, however, many of the states with gun free zones also have next to impossible CCW requirements).
