It's much easier to kill any number of people if they've been disarmed than otherwise. Disarming a victim is ever so much easier than disarming a perp...victims usually don't break laws. Even less likely to be a criminal is a legally armed citizen; they prefer to keep their licences.

Since schools and universities are garanteed to be victim disarmament zones, they attract perps who are comitting suicide-by-cop but want to take a significant number of victims with them. This also applies to post offices and many factories.
