If the school shooters were instead using grenades or rocket launchers, would you still think “the issue” was bullying? No, you would ban grenades in a heartbeat. They are in fact banned in the US.

The shooters are using weapons of war already. Assault rifles are for soldiers. You’ve just been convinced to turn a blind eye to that. And you’re coming up with ridiculous metaphors to describe this as an inevitable force of nature, as if there is no man-made highly efficient killing machine involved. (Edit, sorry for venting, the article also seems to ignore the part about the guns.)
