It seems that absent fathers is one of the problems.

Oh god. No, guns don't have legs and get up and kill people, but easy access to them is certainly a contributing factor to mass killings like this. I would go as far as to say that guns aren't even a major motivating factor, I will happily concede that. But they are the necessary tool of a problem with other causes and shy of outright solving those causes, helping to eliminate guns from the mass killing equation goes an awfully long way to fixing the outcome of the problem itself.

Furthermore, the yay-guns side (pro-gun is a misnomer as many people in favour of regulation also enjoy guns and want to continue enjoying them) always acts as if regulation of firearms is advocacy of an outright ban. In fact it's almost always much less significant than that, and nearly any regulation on guns would be a significant step compared to anything the U.S has thus far attempted.
