Gun control is a false narrative that says a law can stop murder and suicide with firearms. A law is an expected behavior norm for people in a society. A law can't make criminals and insane people adhere to the expected standards. It prevents nothing. This expected norm only sets a punishment for violating a law. Criminals and mentally ill folks do not care what the law is and will commit a crime or kill somebody. Same with a mentally ill person. They both have no fear of the law. The Police arrive at the scene after people have been killed. So the law did not prevent anything. When a politician tells you laws prevent crime they don't.
