The "Alternative Weapons" theory is facile and has no merritt. It begs the question why baseball games have low murder rates. Since there are so many "weapons" in use. We addressed that already in an earlier post. We also addressed the data mining methods of fanatics. Unreliable and impossible to track. The supposed "Experts" with no standing in the scientific community. The endless deconstruction of meaningless data while the real point is not addressed. No premise; no conclusion. Logical syllogism.
