A dictator uses the military and police by force to kill people. The dictator is then an accomplice.
A gun is an inanimate object, it does not kill unless acted on, just like speech.
Therefore, ban the gun because it has the same characteristics as speech.
All human beings are responsible for their own behavior, even when the behavior is suicide. No matter how much a person gets encouraged to commit suicide, in the end the ultimate choice is up to the individual.

No, the dictator uses his words and other people, made up of the military and police, use force to enforce his words.

Words can be criminal in many ways: incitement, fraud, sedition, conspiracy, etc.

Read the texts. This goes into the criminal. If you don’t read the texts, you are just trying to argue a hypothetical that doesn’t make any sense to those who have read the texts.
