Maine Dem Accidentally Reveals “Gun Free Zones” Are Stupid

Last night, the Maine House of Representatives was up late debating whether to approve a bill that would add more security at the State House.

Republican lawmakers were a little upset with the bill, considering that the same legislative body had earlier rejected proposals to add security to public schools.

You can read more about that debate here.

In the protracted debate that ensued, one Maine Democrat stood up to explain why extra security is so desperately needed at the State House.

In so doing, Rep. Tiffany Roberts (D-South Berwick) brilliantly explained why so-called “Gun Free Zones” — a gun control policy commonly pushed by anti-gun liberals — are, at best, silly.
