I hadn't thought of it until you mentioned all the public shootings, but a lot of mass shooters just want to be remembered for something. Turning the New York shooter into a folk hero is going to inspire a lot of armed crazy people.

Makes me wonder if now we get reasonable gun control.

No, America never will. The NRA lobby is too strong. You'd have to completely outlaw lobbyists first.

Exactly. Republicans will just push for more funding for police officers.
