Santa Monica is about as close to a "gun free" zone as you can imagine. All of LA County is "no issue." They vote consistently for no-gun candidates so you have to conclude that most people support gun free living and do not own weapons themselves.

A criminal's odds of encountering a legal gun owner carrying, except at a gun store perhaps (if there are any in Santa Monica), are about the same as having Bigfoot and The Abominable Snowman both appear for dinner at your house tonight, dressed in identical pink tutu's.
Your certainly correct about that. But I was addressing the fact that the reason for this shooting was that the college was a gun free zone, and that's why it some of it happened there. That would be like saying all the shootings in LA occur because the gunman new almost nobody was carrying, not because of gangs, robberies, revenge, or other violent crimes in general.
