Politics: Why should anyone believe regressives are upset about mass shootings?

After all they are the ones who advocate unregulated access to unlimited guns and ammo. It is not like their conscience will stop them from selling an assault weapon to anyone who has the cash.

    Their rejoinder is that guns don't kill, people do.

    To which intelligent people respond, but guns make it easier for fewer people to kill more people. Check this out:

    "The observed relationship was specific to firearm-related homicide. Although we could not determine causation, we found that states with higher levels of gun ownership had disproportionately large numbers of deaths from firearm-related homicides." [https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC38287...

    This comprehensive study included both legal and illegally gun acquisition. The independent variable was gun density (guns per State resident). The dependent variable was deaths by gun, which included both homicide and suicide.

    You own a car. Does that mean you advocate running people over? Of course not. Responsible gun owners (the ones you are criticizing) were not involved in Las Vegas. It was someone who didn't care about the law.
