Accept mass shooters don't usually kill at random they choose a specific place for a specific reason  which rarely has to do with it being "soft "

What criteria do they select then?
Can be ideological - They hate a certain groups therefore target place that group hangs out

Can be a place they were hurt thus they are motivated by revenge -  School shooters generally target their own schools were they were they believed bullied or ostracized or a school that holds some significance to someone who hurt them.

Can be a place they will get the most attention -Remember most of these nut jobs want attention

Those are just examples mind you their are plenty more

We can focus on mass shooters and we should, but the bulk of firearm fatalities are suicides, second would  be domestic violence, 3rd would be accidental, mostly being children getting access to their parents gun. All types of firearm injury and deaths are important. 

This is why motive really irritates me. That is only important short term in each case to the investigators. Long term access is the issue regardless.

^^^^^^^ Yep, this is what both conservative and liberal law students learn, but what most laypeople don't learn in civics classes.

That is why Amendments can be added or removed. The founders knew times would change.

Neither have I, but then again, I don't hang out with anyone who boasts a firearm in public when they don't have a job that requires it.

And I don't own one myself. I figure if someone wants me dead bad enough, it is far more likely they'd ambush me before I could draw a firearm anyway.

A lot like a shark will sneak up on a seal at the surface and ambush them.
1. Too be fair I was talking about mass shooters specifically 

2. True enough
Seek strength, not to be greater than my brother, but to fight my greatest enemy -- myself.
