The saturation of guns in the US is so high, that any legal ban is like trying to stop water with a fishing net. Even the word ban leads to record breaking sales of guns. This shooting will probably boost gun sales as well, because many will assume a ban is coming and stock up before they are not allowed anymore. Even if you were to magically collect as many guns as you can, that leaves the bad guys, still with guns, as anyone who has plans to use one would not be giving it up easily. Then there is 3D printing and self-made stuff. Americans don’t respect regulatory bans, so the approach has to be different. Education, monitoring, better programs to catch early-stage behavior. Many of the shooters target people they know won’t fight back - kids, elderly, people who are unprotected in one way or another. There is no shortage of potential victims. If you protect the schools they will switch to churches, or hospitals. The attack surface is so broad, it seems you have to narrow down on the attackers. Can tech help with that? Can Education? Can social programs?
