The framing smuggles in a moral perspective. You have the cause wrong; the shooting wasn't a policy intervention, except as to how America handles mental health and gun ownership.
It was a policy intervention in the sense that Americans have no choice in policy.
Your healthcare is entirely decided by people who are not your doctors. Every medicine you take, how long you go to the doctor, what surgeries you can get - your insurer unilaterally decides this. Not your doctor.
There's no voting system or merit system. You can't just simply find a better doctor - because your doctor is an empty vessel, they make no decisions. You have, legitimately, zero recourse.
Shooting someone is then very rational. We have made that one of the only choices, period. The insurance companies have all but guaranteed this outcome.
