"If it was common knowledge that there was a non-trivial number of armed people at the location in question this probably wouldn't be happening" would be more appropriate.

People committing violence choose soft targets over hard ones when they can.

So does every location in the country need to have armed people around? There can be no "soft targets" anywhere?

There is a better way, other countries have figured it out already.

Yes, nobody does ever kill anyone in other countries.

We have individual murders, but our last big mass shooting was in the 90s. USA has one every day. Your comment seems to deliberately misinterpret the situation.

(Edit: nevermind, I guess you’re talking about Australia and not Europe)

I'm genuinely interested what message you were trying to send with that link?

I'm Australian.
