I haven't seen anyone in awhile saying that the solution is banning all guns.

By that logic we should also ban all cars, since cars are also involved in large numbers of deaths, many more than guns.

In 2013, cars killed "only" 168 people more compared to firearms:

Don't know the figures for 2014 and 2015.
