One of the most horrific incidents of school violence in my country happened when a man rushed in with a knife and was thankfully detained before he could hurt most of the kids, which goes to show that it's important that the mind is also examined.
On the other hand, since it appears that Ryan Lanza didn't have much of a history besides this it's unlikely it would have made a difference this time.
On the other hand the fact that that was one of the worst examples of school violence in your country, not a grown man murdering 23(?) schoolchildren with a firearm would seem to indicate that gun control would still play a big role.
