I agree. I don't see why it is so difficult to believe that there are a small number of genuinely insane people, or people who just decide that the only point in life is to become (in)famous. I also don't see why it is so hard to believe that a lot of people genuinely believe in gun control as a way to address that. Even if you disagree with the reasoning, can't you see why some people will think that it is a good solution? I definitely know a lot of normal, everyday people who support at least some gun control. I feel like the explanation that people just genuinely support a view rather than it has to be a conspiracy makes a lot more sense. Even if you think it is a conspiracy, it would be more like the government just takes advantage of things in order to push whatever agenda.
