While I agree with the parenting part, because it's usually the parents who fuck up especially in the US where even touching your child could get them sent away due to "abuse," but guns don't kill people, people kill people. A lot of ignorance by different sources don't understand that the common use of guns is mostly for hunting or self defense and in a country as large as the US where the population is more spread out, it's actually needed in a lot of areas especially where wild life roam about.
You take guns away and people will kill with knives before sealing the door off, you take knives away and people will kill with rocks, you take the rocks away and people will find whatever tool they can get to kill people, you chop people's arms off and they will kick others to death, you chop off the arms and legs and people will headbutt other people to death, then the only solution would be to chop everybody's heads off and kill the entire human race. You however won't be able to kill a big ass brown bear that's trying to eat your ass with a knife, you are going to fucking die! Gun control is simply the government scared shitless of any real possible rebellion by it's citizens in case they do a really shitty job of running a country, and the more poor the citizens are, the more likely they are to turn those barrels to the government to start revolutions.
Oh and a lot of people go mad because of shitty parenting, so your first point already is about 75% of the problem if not more.
