Mass shootings would still happen. Not every mass shooter goes to the gun store to purchase a gun. Also you aren't able to purchase a handgun until you are 21, it wasn't his, he either stole it, or bought it off the street. I am not sure about the rifle, but likely its the same situation.
Yes, but it would be much much harder to get hold of them. Take the UK for example, we last had a school shooting in 1996. We banned handguns and proper tightened up the rules for gun ownership. We haven't had a school shooting since, and only black people in London have access to illegal guns.
Why do you keep comparing the UK to the US? Completely different landscapes, neighboring countries, and societies.

Rifles and shotguns are still available in the UK so mass shootings could easily happen, we just have better gun laws and won't just sell guns to anyone, guns are so widely available in the US unlike the UK, I mean in the US you can walk in to a supermarket or a pawn shop and buy a gun...

In the UK you have to jump through dozens of hoops to get one and can't get one if you have a criminal record or have ever suffered from mental health issues
Zero guns Will be banned. Kids Will study by laptop at home
Guns will never be banned in America

Not only that but America has a violent history with killing people. It's a big melting pot of crazy psychopathic people, so people will come up with new ways just to kill somebody using IEDs or knives or even 3D printing handguns. there's always a way to be a terrorist. Also lots of people are able to purchase illegal guns from off the street. I think that's what that Las Vegas shooter was able to do when he killed people several years ago.
nope. second paragraph

lol...you can't just walk into a super market or pawn shop and purchase a gun. There are background checks just like in the UK. Criminals can't purchase guns in the US, and mental health people cannot purchase guns in the US. The problem is that guns are easy to get on the street. The other problem as that gun owners that are law abiding are ABSOLUTE FUCKING MORONS on securing their firearms. One guy in my neighborhood was bitching on a neighborhood app that someone broke into his truck parked in his driveway and stole his gun. Who the fuck leaves guns in a neighborhood in your vehicle?

A load of hillbillies will die, and schools will be made safer.
Its not hillbillies doing this, you just have to open your eyes a tiny bit and see the problem. These young people probably never told 'no' their whole life and don't have the mental capacity to deal with adversity, they think they are owed something or should be given anything they want. When something happens they don't know how to deal with they blame the world and "want to die" and want everyone to suffer with them. Someone the mass shooters slipped through the cracks or were let down by mental health providers, or just ignored. We have a serious problem in this country and its not 'hillbillies'. Its mental health, social media (the look at me and pay attention to me generations), and the everyone gets a trophy bullshit.

The point is those places shouldn't be selling guns 🤷‍♂️ gun laws in the US are nothing like in the UK

You're confusing black sheep with snowflakes.
It's the guy that gets boxed in by his environment for years who came to hate everything and pulls the trigger.
A listening ear and acknowledgment to a loner goes further than prejudice and rejection.

I understand what you are saying but if you are making a point use actual facts and correct points because spreading bullshit only turns into more bullshit and is one of the problems with gun control arguments. To many people have no idea wtf they are talking about, proposing solutions that already exist and are on the books, etc. Guns aren't as easy to get as I bet most of you think they are. There are hoops to jump through, the FBI does a background check on every single gun purchase. I have gone through that process multiple times, I know the process well.

I keep my firearms locked in a very solid and heavy safe. I don't leave them laying around for any ignorant turd to pick up and walk away with. I don't take pictures of them and post them all over social media like I am some badass, my kids don't know they exist in this house and they never will. People that have their gun stolen from a place that wasn't secure should be held liable for anyone harmed with that stolen weapon. Parents should be held responsible if their child gets access to a gun and hurts someone else. Gun owners need to be responsible for the weapons they have and be mature enough to own it. Prosecute irresponsible gun owners, hit them hard with punishments if they are the reason someone else gets harmed with a gun they own.
