Because of Rule 5.

Topics and conduct that will not be tolerated:
...
The End Of The World As We Know It (TEOTWAWKI), AKA: SHTF or Doomsday threads and Zombie threads

That type of thread inevitably ends up being about people fantasizing different implausible/improbable ways to legally (or at least without legal repercussions) shoot large numbers of people and that doesn't fit with the mission statement of TFL which is "dedicated to the discussion and advancement of responsible firearms ownership".
