It’s the guns. The guns are the problem.
The FBI on Tuesday announced that it had concluded its investigation into the 2017 Las Vegas shooting, in which 58 people were killed. But the conclusion left a big mystery open: Investigators could not figure out the shooter’s motive, meaning we may never know why he carried out the attack.
But just because we don’t know the motive does not mean that we don’t know why the shooting happened. We don’t know what drove the shooter to kill 58 people. But we know why he was able to: He lived in a country where he could get nearly 50 guns — comprising everything from handguns to assault rifles, sometimes modified with bump stocks that can make these weapons more lethal.
