The ease of access to every gun type under the sun is a serious flaw. The founding fathers when they defined the right to bear arms didn't have the imagination to see marge capacity magazines, rapid fire semi automatic weapons, high powered scopes, and high velocity rounds. If they did, I have my doubts that the right to bear arms would be enshrined in the constitution.

With the exception of Bill Clinton with the assault rifle ban that was allowed to lapse, no president has had the stones to take on the battle against gun ownership, nor has the senate of congress. All we get after every mass shooting is the usual litany of hopes and prayers from both sides of the political spectrum.

It makes me believe that the Administrative side of the US government is either unwilling or unable to break the chains of NRA lobbying, special interest groups and the entrenched gun culture of the United States

Realistically you'd think that this is a fight that should rightfully be fought in the courts. We see massive lawsuits against Big Tabacco.

I mean we rightfully have seen lawsuits for mass shootings, there is an $800 million dollar lawsuit against MGM for the Vegas shooting, but there is never ever the expected mass lawsuit against the gun manufacturers. Why isn't there a mass action lawsuit for billions that could force reform?

There has been a lawsuit filed against Colt for the mass shooting in Nevada, but its likely to go nowhere because frankly the NRA and Colt will fight it tooth and nail until the other side gives up.

There's no courage on the side of the government to use the supreme court in this battle because the Supreme Court isn't exactly friendly in terms of changing the Constitution in a meaningful way.

Instead we get minor concessions from the government, the concept of limiting magazines or removing bump stocks from the market.

Its insane that the US Constitution is in essence a murder suicide justification.

Make no mistake, Canada has quite a few radicalized individuals of all political and ideological beliefs. We have gun violence and mass shootings, but what keeps it controlled is simple. We don't have a gun culture here, we don't have the same belief in the right to bear arms no matter what the cost.

But we're a model that will never ever be replicated in the States.

Unless the American people decide that enough is enough and rebel against the Gun Lobby and the gun ownership belief in the states this isn't ever going to change, and in a 100 years it will be the complaints around the use of commercially based laser rifles that have a 6000 round battery and can fire a 1000 rounds a minute.
