You don’t excuse a disease, you analyze why it’s happening and figure out how to cure it. Understanding the scale of the host is step one. Understanding what other hosts are doing differently, the extent to which it’s working for them, and what effect you could hope to see by mimicking them is step two. In the US, actually implementing any improvement requires relatively broad understanding of what exactly is wrong, how to fix it, and how we know the fix will work without also costing so many people their “freedom” to own a ridiculously efficient killing machine that the improvement doesn’t get shot down. That’s step 3
It really is.
I do hope you aren’t excusing it, but by that logic NZ should have a mass shooting roughly every 4 months by comparison.
