Mass murderers rarely target people with guns, especially cops

Salon:
Why Won't Conservatives Back Gun Control to Save Cops?
I don't recall someone with an "assault rifle" targetting cops.  It may have happened but it was not as notorious as the shooting of people in "gun-free zones."  In fact, gun-free zones are usually the prime target of mass murderers. 

In the recent shooting in Philadelphia, a person who would not have past the current background checks illegally bought a gun and shot cops trying to serve him with papers.  The event points out one of the facts about criminals.  They don't obey any law including those restricting access to guns. 

Chicago has some of the most restrictive gun laws in the country and I suspect those invo9lved in the gangland killings in that city ignore those laws like the guy in Philadelphia did. 

The writer at Salon is being disingenuous.
