1. I can't say with any certainty, but I doubt it. It seems like most of these would be shooters are suicidal or at least have a fatalistic mindset anyways, so I doubt they would be deterred. Besides, at my high school, there would have been someone shooting back. We had a police detachment in the school at all times consisting of two police officers.

2. No, not less likely either, but not more likely. I mean, you see a sign that says "drug free zone" does that make you want to go smoke pot there? Probably not, but at the same time it probably wouldn't deter you if you really wanted to either.
