* TheyWastedAPerfectlyGoodPlot: The episode ends by having the remotes be banned before any of them were in the hands of the public, which avoids the question of "[[WhoWillBellTheCat who is going to go around and confiscate all the remotes from the people?]]".

to:

* DontShootTheMessage: The episode is not only criticized for its lack of subtlety on the subject of gun usage, but also because the remotes don't ''kill'' their victims, but rather turn them into [[DemBones animate skeletons]] and treating it with the simplicity of a manageable new problem rather than a long running one that is difficult to clean up. Thus, some fans who support gun control dislike the episode.

About unused and seemingly set up in the story plots, not poorly handled ones.


* TheyWastedAPerfectlyGoodPlot:
** The episode would feel more even-handed to both sides of the gun control debate if Gar came off as a more responsible ArmsDealer[[note]]as supplying heroes was the point of Gar's Bodega[[/note]] compared to Gil Ferris but reluctant to stop him as the law was on Gil's side until skeleton remotes got out of hand rather than becoming TriggerHappy like the rest of the skeleton remote crowd in this episode.

* HarsherInHindsight: Both watching a crowd turn on K.O. for asking for regulations and cheery ending where the Congresswoman is able to legislate away the problem is brutal to watch knowing that someone who harassed children who advocate gun control would get elected to Congress after this episode aired.

No longer a trope.


* SomeAnvilsNeedToBeDropped: The mass proliferation of deadly weapons is a terrible scourge on society and otherwise seemingly reasonable people will reflexively refuse any bare minimum of regulation in the name of so called freedoms.

* WereStillRelevantDammit: This episode is an example of it! It was made [[PatchedTogetherFromTheHeadlines in response of the mass shootings]] in a cheap attempt at being relevant and progressive. One of the examples being Carol's fourth wall break about "calling your local congressman" and winking. Not to mention it aired after the Marjory Stoneman Douglas High School shooting.
