Courage. If nothing happened after Sandy Hook, nothing will happen unless someone really decides that enough is enough.

There isn't an easy solution for this type of thing. They will keep happening no matter what you do to try and stop them.
Gun control will probably help halt the ones that happen as an impulsive action, but there's no regulation that will stop a terrorist from achieving their goal.

Out of curiosity: how are Norway's gun control laws:

All it takes is one dangerous idiot and/or fanatic.

But what exactly is enough? Unless we have a solution to this horrendous problem, the current state of affairs will not subside.
Just shouting “ban assult rifles” will not solve the problem. We need an elaborte plan reasoned by principle rather than by analogy.

The top five most viable "somethings" have already been discussed and ruled out, so what exactly is left?
It's a tragedy, but it's a repeating tragedy, and this thread will follow the same pattern as all previous US mass shooting discussion threads where people will oppose solutions without any viable alternatives.
A congressman got non-fatally shot a few months ago and nothing was done, so the barrier for inaction is really high: https://thinkprogress.org/shooting-congressional-baseball-pr...

For the rest of the world, a couple of shootings.
For USA, apparently nothing.
