    I mean if people are gonna have guns and people with mental crises who go and murder other people, then let’s choose the lesser evil:

    a) Sandy Hook style shooting up a school, killing many kids and teachers

    b) New Orleans style driving a car into a public event, killing many partygoers

    c) Luigi style murdering a single person who is arguably themselves guilty of causing the legal death and suffering of thousands

    Now what would be the lesser evil in this scenario?

    Obviously, I prefer no dead people, which would require regulating guns and providing mental healthcare and a social safety net to people, but alas, that option seems to be impossible.
