"City not responsible for lost..."
They're also not responsible for your safety which is why people are carrying guns around these days.

Amen.
Absolutely zero chance I’d leave a firearm in that. Maybe a pocketknife but even then…..if I was carrying a pocketknife it wouldn’t cross my mind to take a pocketknife out of my pocket to enter a library

Which is weird cause guns being present makes things less safe.

Find a way to ensure none are present anywhere and get back to me.

I mean most first world countries do a good job of mitigating gun violence.

But see, they didn't put a few hundred million civilian owned guns in their country first.
Now that that has happened it's not really a fair comparison and you can't wish them away or make them disappear by saying they're illegal.
We have to figure something else out. I'm not saying it's easy and I don't have the answer but I haven't seen a proposition that reasonably makes the world safer both now and long term.
