I do understand. The US was founded on an armed rebellion by the populace against its government of the time. So yes, it is ingrained in our culture where it is not in others.
Which others? armed rebellion isn't unique to the US.

If you mean another "mass school shooting" - then your right. If you meant another mass shooting regardless of location, then I would differ.
Specifically, the Cumbria shooting spree of June 2, 2010 in which 12 people were killed and 11 injured. 33 victims, over half of which died, definitely qualifies as a mass shooting. It is interesting to note that the perpetrator in that shooting used both a shotgun and a rifle - neither of which caused any push to ban them after the tragedy.
Yes, it instead called for stricter backround checks and tighter enforcement.
Same as the sensible call would have been after Dunblane and Hungerford.
