It's been reckoned that armed militia in the US could seriously threaten the conventional armed forces of the US if they wanted to.
So it is indeed not an easy matter to solve, but I am sure that there is a way of accommodating the gun-owning mentality without continually kowtowing to the NRA lobby.
// In February 2017, Trump signed a bill that undid a regulation from Barack Obama’s presidency which said the Social Security Administration would have to report certain mentally ill recipients to the national background check database, NBC reports. //

// Mayor Beam Furr said during an interview with CNN that the shooter [Nicholas Cruz] was getting treatment at a mental health clinic for a while, but that he hadn't been back to the clinic for more than a year. //

"Guns don't kill people, people do" is true enough, but people without or with fewer guns kill an awful lot less.

Sheer common sense Itchy...well said.
//Antifa wasn't he?//

Was he? I don't know but read he was a member of Republic Of Florida which is quite the opposite.
