Assuming it didn't inspire 2 more delinquents to commit a DP murder in order to achieve that very public spotlight, that's an argument worth considering.
It's the same argument I've heard time and again by those seeking to ban semi-automatics and/or high capacity mags and to implement universal background checks. I don't currently support bans. But, I understand that argument in favor of them and sometimes think it's worth re-considering at this point as well.
