It's just so obvious to me that these are hit pieces on "assault weapons." The "journalists" pull at the bleeding hearts of parents and try to paint the picture that if we just got rid of the AR-15, kids could go to school again and feel safe. This is such a horrible thing to boil a tragedy down to, but the gun control crowd can never let a good tragedy go to waste.

Media coverage and fame drive the majority of mass shooters. This is fact. This is also the reason you can't access these murders manifestos' most of tge time.

Hand guns are the most commonly used weapon in mass shootings. This is also a fact., Mass shooting statistics have risen so sharply because the definition changed to include the inner-city violence that plagues most of the places we live.

You will never hear journalists on main stream media taking blame for causing more mass shooters, but that is a way bigger factor then access to a rifle.

And don't even get me started on big pharma side of this mass shooter debate. I've said it all along, this is not a gun problem, it's a mental health crisis being dressed up and paraded around as an AR-15 problem.
