βIt is worth acknowledging that episodic mass shootings continue to occur at rates not seen in other high-income countries, and frequently attributed to easy access to guns and ammunition, mental health issues, personal conflicts, or lenient gun laws in the United States (Giffords, 2024). Meanwhile, the gun manufacturing industry nearly doubled in size between 2009-2016 (Winker et al., 2016).
