    If you went to an American hospital (or a school, even), you’d probably find at least that density.

        Security guards, the mandatory police officer guy, and the guns that get snuggled in.

        Average America isn’t your big coastal elite city.

            Gun free zones for citizens.

            School resource officers, School police, normal police, are all allowed to carry weapons in American School gun-free zones.

            If we talk about any public university, the campus police definitely have weapons, and they have backup weapons, and they have a weapon firing range.

            These are just people whose job it is to carry weapons, this isn’t talking about people who work at the school who get policy exemptions and concealed Carry permits.

            For talking about a hospital complex that houses thousands of workers, there is going to be more than 15 guns in the complex

              It’s not that ubiquitous, and that pithy comment was referring to kalashnikovs, which you will find in none of those places.

            Great, just many schools. This, anyway, still only applies to unauthorized guns. Authorized personnel are still allowed guns.
