If you want to lessen the ability of sick people to do these types of mass shootings, you'll have to strip all firearms from the US. Every long gun, pistol, shotgun... everything. It'll take decades.

Bingo! Now you're finally talking sense...didn't know y'all had it in you.
Simple fact...too many Americans just can't be trusted with firearms so the rest of y'all have to suffer for the common good.

How do you do that? We also have a 5th amendment that says the
government can't just "take" things without just compensation and the
6th amendment says they need to use due process. Even if they could
repeal the second amendment, you still have those nagging problems.

Apparently states can as evidenced by the recent (Feb 1st) ban of bump
stocks and trigger cranks in Massachusetts and the requirement within 90
days to turn over any existing bump stocks/trigger cranks to local or
state police to be destroyed. No compensation and criminal prosecution
including a $10,000 fine and/or subject to incarceration if caught with
either or both after the 90 day period.
