While the news media have been silent on the matter, I have learned that the Trolley Square mall was posted as a gun-free zone when the recent shootings occurred. Surely, in the wake of this, and several school shootings, even the most ardent gun-control advocates see the folly of gun-free zones.
It's only a matter of time before such a shooting happens in one of Utah's gun-free churches.
