Taken literally, the statement is true. So long as guns exist, there will be mass shootings.
But what you are really arguing about is the rhetorical stance. The one that argues "can't stop them, so don't bother trying". But between you and me, I'd rather live in a society where the distance between mass shootings is typically measured in months and years rather than hours and days.
So the real argument you are making is objectively false. We have the statistics on shootings and mass shootings in various jurisdictions that demonstrate the American/GOP argument is fatally flawed.
