Tho these people would probably murder anyway. If you were to get rid of guns you’re taking the power of self defence from the general public who have done no wrong

Gun control isn't 'taking guns away' though, that's the mindset that prevents gun control from ever happening in the US. Gun control, if implemented properly would only affect people who would be a danger in the first place. There's millions of gun owners in the US who would be unaffected by increased checks and a ban on the sale of military grade weapons since who could truly justify owning an AR-15 for the purpose of 'Self Defense'?
If guns weren't an issue and this wankstain of a human being decided to go on a rampage with, say, a knife, he would not have killed or hurt as many people as he did with a gun. Chances are he wouldn't have killed anyone. Access to guns is absolutely the problem here, you can't do anything about people being psychotic but you can try to ensure they don't have access to weapons that give them the best chances to kill as many people as they can before they are caught.
