While there are all kinds of libertarians,and all kinds of libertarians-in-name-only, generally speaking most would not be benefited in any way by more mass shootings.
If anything, mass shootings would be detrimental to anything libertarian.

Likewise with conservatives who are with Constitutionalists, or old Democrats who still support the 2nd amendment. None of these groups has anything to gain from mass shootings.

There is one group which can benefit from mass shooting events, and that is the antigun, anti second amendment bunch, which includes ordinary criminals who fear getting caught by their armed intended victims; corrupt politicians who benefit from scaring constituents to the ballot box or donation box; advocates for large all powerful centralized government; the media that needs lots of blood to bring subscribers; special interest groups who can use mass shooting events for fundraising; socialists/communists who need a disarmed populace in order to carry out future pogroms to secure power; and foreign adversaries, who want to take advantage of shootings to keep us fighting amongst ourselves. If we are at each other’s throughts we cannot pay attention to what foreign enemies are up to.

You’re confusing libertarians with being rational or smart. They are neither.

They don’t care about consequences when it comes to drugs, they’d mostly give the 2nd gladly in order to be able to legally get high.

I’ll never give up firearm ownership.

They could abolish the 2nd Amendment and I’ll still be a gun owner, regardless of the laws.

My Dutch ancestors didn’t come to North America in 1638, so a bunch of control freaks could turn us into a servile mass for our government masters.
