Gun-Free Zones are limited areas designated by law and signage. Those areas virtually always represent the geographic boundaries of a public facility of some specific type such as a college, hospital, theater, etc. where large numbers of people are concentrated together in a reasonably small space.

A comparison between similar facilities will show gun deaths in "gun free" facilities to be substantially higher than in facilities where possession of defensive firearms is allowed.

This discussion may lead to the even more substantive question of: Are people more likely to be subjected to violent, life threatening attacks (regardless of the tool used) at a "gun-free facility" or a comparable facility where possession of defensive firearms is allowed?
