The truth is that laws and longer sentences will not mean anything to those that perpetrate crimes with guns.  Robbing people at gun point, homicides, gang related shootings  - these people don't care about their prison sentences.  And in the case of mass shootings, I think they assume they will be killed or plan to kill themselves.  

If these killings are not due to mental illness, then there is a behavioral issue.  With our overcrowded prisons - it doesn't appear that going to prison is not a deterrent to crimes.  

The system needs to enforce the gun laws that are already on the books - something that is not being done.  More laws won't change a thing.
