It's been reckoned that armed militia in the US could seriously threaten the conventional armed forces of the US if they wanted to.
So it is indeed not an easy matter to solve, but I am sure that there is a way of accommodating the gun-owning mentality without continually kowtowing to the NRA lobby.

// In February 2017, Trump signed a bill that undid a regulation from Barack Obama’s presidency which said the Social Security Administration would have to report certain mentally ill recipients to the national background check database, NBC reports. //
The background check would flag up when people with a mental illness tried to buy weapons, and they would be denied purchase. Trump undid the legislation.
// Mayor Beam Furr said during an interview with CNN that the shooter [Nicholas Cruz] was getting treatment at a mental health clinic for a while, but that he hadn't been back to the clinic for more than a year. //
When the President goes out of his way to make it easy for mentally ill people to buy weapons, then there is little hope of preventing the next massacre.

What I don't understand is the idea that you approach this issue by trying to make people stop hating each other!
It may be a challenge but the only solution is to address the gun laws. And I can't believe there isn't an element - to say the least - of copycat here. Mass shootings, particularly at schools, are almost a cultural thing now, dreadful tho it sounds to say that.
"Guns don't kill people, people do" is true enough, but people without or with fewer guns kill an awful lot less.
