If it were a single instance, than I see your point. But the fact that the same thing keeps playing out over and over again brings the issue to the forefront.
The fact is, in these situations people used guns to kill mass amounts of people easily. Making a firebomb (or something else) to randomly kill mass amounts of people would not be as simple as doing it with a gun.
