I'll assume you mean that you are taking responsibility for your own safety? That is a good thing. However, what if you needed to go somewhere that claims you cannot do that? Imagine that it is not an option to simply choose not to go there, but for whatever reason, you are required to go there. Yet, the declaration that it is a safe space and you are not allowed to provide your own legal protection.

I try to avoid victim disarmament zones. On average, I've yet to encounter a very sketchy situation where I felt I was going to be shot or need to shoot somebody, and I'm from a stand your ground state. The media has just hyped the fear up by sensationalizing all these acts of crime. Everybody should take their own safety into their hands, there is a high chance that nobody will actually help you, they much rather pull out their cell phone and record it all.

Again, I understand. However, what if you MUST go into one of these safe zones (like a court house)?

If a shooting or other attack occurs in a court house, school, or any building that has been mandated "gun free zone" by the local lawmakers, then those lawmakers should be fully financially culpable for restitution in the event of an attack. Yeah, that means tax payer dollars will be involved, but maybe after seeing taxes soar to cover the ass-end of dimentia decisions of their politicians, voters will wake the eff up and stop sending imbeciles and agenda pimps to elected positions and instead start voting in personal responsibility advocates who acknowledge the importance of the Constitutional Rights guaranteed us all... including the right of self defense via a carried firearm.

Why is it so bad that decent, peace loving people want places where devices whose sole purpose is killing aren't allowed? Guns don't make me feel any safer. In fact, usually only the shooter, forgive me, "good guy", feels any safer, and that's solely because he knows he can snuff out any life he chooses.

Not sure I understand.
If by "safe space" you mean I can't wear my MAGA hat publicly, then no.
That "safe space" would be an infringement on my rights to free expression.
What people do in the privacy of their own property or on private property is of no concern to me as long as they do not infringe upon the rights of others.

Why are you and your irrational fear of firearms special?
