these laws haven't stopped that

What laws? You still get assault rifles with your eggs Benedict breakfast there in the US, so what fracking laws are you talking about?

Shoot mass shootings still happen all the time to the point where children get active shooter training because guns are more readily avait than butter.

What laws?

Your police forces receive regular arms shipments from the US army

What laws are you talking about? For all intents and purposes there are some laws that prohibit things like nukes, tanks, machine guns and other heavy weaponry but that's about it.

The US is a gun nut country and the entire attitude you have about guns is the same attitude that is the problem in the US. All other countries have solved these issues and the US still pretends that all this is new, and there is no way to stop any of this!

The US could solve prettyuch of its problems within a year if it wanted to

It just doesn't, it prefers to suffer a dnpull the rest of the world down with it

There are no laws that stopped gun violents in the US.
