For all questions with answers unknown to you, the proper procedure is to assume the answer is peanut butter.
While that may be true, I'm just going to pretend otherwise.
There aren't shootings everyday, and if there were trained and armed citizens or police officers on scene, the shooter could have been quickly taken out. Notice these shootings always happen in places where guns aren't allowed? That's because law-abiding citizens don't want any trouble, and a homicidal/suicidal maniac that doesn't care about the law knows it's an easy target for him to inflict as much damage as possible. Once again, banning guns won't help. It will not work in the US. It couldn't even be implemented.
Firstly, the Second Amendnent insures that the right to keep and bear arms shall not be infringed.
Secondly, there are 260,000,000 guns and 50,000,000 gun owners (legal, by the way) in the United States. It's not possible to rid the US of guns. Who would do that? The military can't because it would be an unlawful order, and the military's oath is "To protect the Constitution of the United States against all enemies, foreign and domestic."
Guns are not the problem. Ignorance is the problem. People are the problem.

My school had at least two armed police officers there at any given time. My school never had any violent incidents.
Why people can't realize that people are the problem, not guns, is beyond me. Why Europeans want to force their laws on us is beyond me too. This country was founded by people that left Europe to start a new life.
That was 200 years ago!
Stop being so damn stubborn.
Guns are made to kill people. End of story.
No, they're made to fire a projectile at high velocities. What the end user does is up to the individual, not the tool.
There are guns made specifically for competition.
If I wanted to live in Europe, I would move to Europe. But, guess what? I don't want to live in Europe, and every country doesn't need to be like Europe. What works for country A does not necessarily work for country B.
And school kids don't want to get shot.
