How about what the impact would have been if theses laws were in effect a year prior to the shooting?
The new laws are nothing more than political eye wash.
Chest thumping rights for a political speech.....i.e. see what we did to curb gun violence.
Impact on violence, gun or otherwise.....less than negligible!!

I believe that having some school employees armed may help to deter some of these school shootings. Especially if signs are posted warning that some employees are armed. The worst thing that we can tell people who want to kill large amounts of people is that they are in a gun-free zone. Now if they'll only take down those ridiculous signs at airports and allow lawful concealed carry permit holders to bring their guns into the terminal we'd all be a lot safer there as well.
