4. So your contention is that people don't do things because other people do them?

Really?

And I'm not blaming any of those things because doing so is stupid.

People aren't committing mass shootings because they touched an AR-15 and were possessed by a demon.

They're deciding to commit mass murder... Why?

And let's not forget that, thanks to your side's constant hysteria over the existence of AR-15s, that particular rifle has been a best seller for decades. Gun makers only advertise in gun stores, in gun magazines, and on a few niche TV shows and YouTube channels. Your side shoved them into the mainstream spotlight!
