Oh, well there is already gun control then. There's still not much info on the guns in the Las Vegas shooting, but from what we know there's nothing to indicate the shooter would have failed any sort of background check or screening process.

We don't.
Even if we straight up ban guns it won't stop them.

The above post is literally and objectively right.

Well, what drives a person to commit murder? Is it the guns that somehow make a person more aggressive and prone to kill, or is it something underlying that makes a person push themselves more and more to kill their fellow man?

Is it access to guns, or something more deeply rooted in someone's mind that finally pushes them over to commit murder, however they can? There's people that own dozens of guns, and thousands of rounds of ammo that have never hurt a person in their life, but others still that will seek out a firearm(legally or otherwise) to take out as many as they can. Disillusionment maybe? Sudden loss of humanity? Can that tipping point be detected and addressed before tragedy?

Metal detectors in every building.

Regulate amount of guns, types of guns, and ammo someone can own.

The ones that obtain them illegally there really isn't much we can do in short time.

There are various reasons why people do this. Sometimes it is based on an ideology, but that doesn't seem likely here. Was it some kind of deep mental issue like the University of Texas shooter back in the '60s whose autopsy revealed an undiscovered brain tumor? Who knows. We just have to wait and find out if there is any indication of why this guy did it.

for those that want to commit murder, even straight up banning guns will not stop them.

I have no issues for some regulation to curve some access but having straight ban will not solve anything soo..

What I don't get is how people think mental health care will put a dent in this. I mean sure the Sandy Hook one might have been prevented, but for ones like Las Vegas and many others? These are guys that often times had no record whatsoever of any sort of mental problems, shit some of them didn't even have a history of violence. How the hell are you supposed to give better mental health care to people who show no signs of being on the verge of snapping their shit?

There isn't a way. It's fanciful thinking. Testing someone's "mental health" isn't like giving them an HIV test or something, honestly I think a lot of the time it's answering BS questions like

"I sometimes get uncontrollable fits of rage"

Strongly Agree / Agree / Neutral / Disagree / Strongly Disagree

It's like anyone with basic intelligence and patience can just tell them what they want to hear.
