Why not solve the gun problem?
Muh freedom!!!11! /s
Don't be silly, spoilt sport willy. War industrial machine needs to be fed!
How are you going to make money doing that?
I mean the US is too lax with access to guns, but they also have many other problems that lead to this. I mean it's telling that mass shootings don't really happen anywhere else, even in places with effectively no gun control.
There is really no other comparable country in the Western world with the same gun proliferation as the US.
You can't assume a correlation from one data point. If it's the guns, then that'll show up in data from other countries too. When's the last time you heard of a mass shooting in Yemen?
Couple that with the fact that so many Americans wanting to shoot as many human beings as physically possible is still an enormous cause for concern even if we somehow prevent them from getting a gun.
