The fact is if someone wants to hurt or kill people they are going to find a way to do it, whether they have a gun or not. There should be more focus on observing mental health, and getting help to people who are at risk of committing such acts. This is especially important for youth. Unfortunately it's far easier to just say "Let's ban anything having to do with guns."

Agreed. Guns don't kill people, people do.
