Nobody who matters gives a flying fuck about solving it. They never have, and never will. Nobody is trying to "Fix" it, because the entire goddamned country has become so desensitized to it that they no longer give a damn. You may not be "okay" with it, but the collective American Societal Conscience sure as hell doesn't give a flying fuck about fixing it, which is tantamount to having collectively accepted it as the price for maintaining the status quo.
This will just get filed away with Sandy Hook and the Orlando Shooting and a week or two from now, America-At-Large will have largely forgotten about it, leaving only those directly affected to try to deal with the fallout. Until it happens all over again. Which it will. Again and again and again.
