So, if the hospital is a posted “Gun Free Zone what will happen to the doctor?

All right! A shrink with sense - probably recognizes a crazed killer when he sees one.

"There's a sign on the door that says you have to check your weapons at the front," she said, "But you can't expect every crazy person to do that." Well, yeah. To do that you'd have to be nuts.
I know several ER Docs who carry on the job and they don't give a rip about the rules.

It’s stupid for doctors not to be armed especially if they’re psychiatrists. Less than cured patients, shall we say, tend to focus on them and come after them.

“A gunman opened fire inside Mercy Fitzgerald Hospital ... grazing a psychiatrist in the head...”
**************************************************************************************
The psychiatrist is going to have to have his head examined. The finding will be that he was smart to have a defensive firearm readily available. He no doubt saved some lives, including his own.

Let’s not mince words, this would have been a massacre were it not for the doctor who was packing.
This is the hospital I was born at and my father died at, so the story was of great interest to me.

Born there too in 1940. Calm peaceful Landsdowne /Yeado suburb then. Not so much now.
