Locations change, casualties change, but the choice of weapon remains the same: firearms. With mass shootings gaining continuous limelight, we aim through this article to provide the readers an overview of the perpetrator's profile, along with various opinions proposed by the media, government, National Rifle Association (NRA), and health professionals. With mental health linked as a common factor for such incidents, we need to explore the different stances to eliminate such events. This article also provides a collaborative approach to alter the narrative and view it in a new light.
地点在变，伤亡情况在变，但作案武器的选择却始终如一：枪支。随着大规模枪击事件不断成为焦点，我们旨在通过本文为读者概述犯罪者的概况，以及媒体、政府、全国步枪协会（NRA）和健康专家提出的各种观点。由于心理健康被认为是此类事件的一个共同因素，我们需要探讨消除此类事件的不同立场。本文还提供了一种协作方法，以改变这种叙述方式，并以全新的视角看待它。
