    The perpetrator is evil not the inanimate object. Making shit illegal doesn't help.
    I think murder is illegal already. HTH

    There's a fine line. There's no reason a mentally incompetent person should own semi-automatic weapons, for example. The only caveat there is that you're depending on the integrity of those with the power to determine mental competence from not politicizing the whole thing.
    This guy was checked by a PET team sometime prior and they thought he wasn't a danger to anyone and didn't commit him. Again a failure in the system.

    And sometimes a person's condition worsens over time.

    Blaming "the system" is pretty convenient. And meaningless. And useless.

    Might as well blame toxic masculinity or the patriarchy.

    The system is broken we have 5% off the psychiatric hospital beds we had in the 60's. You just can't house them all. 1 in 10 people on the street are mentally disturbed enough to be a danger to others. Add up your local population. The numbers are pretty crazy.
