It use to be video games and movies taking the blame. Now it's websites. When are we going to decide that people are just bat shit crazy and guns need some form of regulation?
Because every gun owner thinks they are "the good guys"
Just wait till I use my gun to save a bunch of lives. Then you'll see that I'm a hero. /s
And most of them fantasize about killing liberals and BLM protesters.
Usually from their perspective they are. Most people don't try to be bad.
Yep. This guy thought he was fighting a righteous battle against the evil of white replacement. Brainwashed, but not insane by any clinical definition any more than any soldier is.
This is a key insight. There have been plenty of despots and dictators that ruled countries for decades while committing uncountable atrocities who had full command of their faculties.
Most people need to drive to gun stores in order to buy them. We better ban cars!

It's not popular nowadays to mention that people need to have self accountability, there's always apparently a website, service, game or social media platform to "blame" for the actions of the individual
Exactly and sites that profit off of hosting extremist content that radicalises terrorists need to be held accountable for their actions.
Extremist content- or calls to action?
Why is that an either or?
How is self accountability incompatible with systemic issues?
