> Interesting. When compared to places like Australia, where guns are highly regulated and barely anyone owns a gun, such that there have been no mass shootings for 35 years, the solution really is obvious.

Is it that simple? The is little correlation between stricter gun laws and fewer number of dead people: https://www.abs.gov.au/articles/27-years-recorded-crime-vict...

That same link shows a slight negative correlation between stricter gun laws and sexual assault.

Looking at the numbers it's really hard to call any solution "obvious".
