Guns are just by far the best enabler, able to turn a guy who might just wave a knife around into a mass casualty event with high reliability.
We aren't going to eliminate people. We aren't going to eliminate motives. We can remove the tools that make it possible for them to kill.

That's it, I'm downsizing. My iPhone 11 was slowly dying with spreading lines of dead pixels and now a cracked lens... I hesitated to go the dumb-phone road but finally ordered a refurbished iPhone 13 mini! Can't wait!
