Rep. Thomas Massie (R-Ky.) has re-introduced his “Safe Students Act” to repeal all federal gun-free zones on April 6, just days after a video of him being shouted at over his proposal to arm teachers by a Democrat representative went viral.

Massie released a statement saying the Gun-Free School Zones Act, which was passed as part of the Crime Control Act of 1990, actually endangers students instead of protecting them.
