So Its fair to say that the AR-15 is popular with mass shooters because it's "cool" and not because its easier to kill a lot of people in a crowd?

It is no more easier to kill people in a crowd than any other firearm.  I would venture to say the allure of the AR 15 is due more to the demonization and false talking points about the weapon than anything else.  Detractors who don’t know about weapons have marketed their concerns by claiming it is the ultimate killing machine.  It is not.  It is no different in function than any other semi automatic weapon.
