As a gun owner, I’m going to disagree here. While there are always extremist pushing for the strictest regulations, for the most part what most want is basic logical control.
People with history of violence or mental disorders shouldn’t have weapons. Period. Does anyone really need an AR-15 for “hunting”? No.
The tired old argument of the 2nd amendment keeping the citizens armed for a militia to stand against a corrupt government is laughably absurd. The local police are practically armed like the army now. And no ones fully automatic AR-15 is going to do jack shit against an Abrams tank or a F-35 or a predator drone.
Gun control makes sense in the same way seatbelts do, will it save everyone? No. Can it still do a lot of good? Very much so.

People with mental illness and a history of violence aren’t allowed to have weapons in my country. What undeveloped nation do you live in?
Ha! You really have to ask? The only nation where mass and school shootings are a regular occurrence.
