    Yes I agree with all of that. Person A would be an accessory to murder.

    Being an accessory to murder is a different thing than being a murderer. That’s why they have different labels. I think you view them as the same? Or are suggesting they are?

      In the example in question maybe, maybe not. If Omar wasn’t handed the gun from person A, he could have gotten the gun in some other way.

      However, in an election, no one gets elected without votes, so yes I do consider everyone who votes for a bigot to be responsible for what that bigot did.

        See I would hold the bigot responsible. Its doesn’t seem right or practical to put millions of people on trial for one person’s act.
