Laws mean little to someone impulsive and enraged and looking for revenge / getting even.

I believe, learning from an early age:
Every action has a reaction / consequences: Think ahead, what does the end game look like?
Effective problem resolution (getting to an outcome you can live with) requires discussing issues vs. going rapidly to violence / nuclear options

Persons who missed these lessons (parenting?) early on are at risk of learning them in unpleasant ways and often at great expense to themselves and society.

There is a challenge in the US in the uncertainty and lethargy in the justice system. In the past we lived in a country that had very swift (couple of weeks max) and certain punishment (you're dead) for convicted murderers, and your upbringing had no part of the sentencing phase.

There's a couple of issues here other than just regulating / banning guns that politicians don't want to touch.
