I'm not sure what you mean by "tighten gun control". It's not easy to purchase a gun legally in the US. I have a carry permit in GA and I was finger printed and checked by 3 different government agencies before I was granted the permit. Before I had the permit I couldn't get a gun w/o clearance. If I even so much as touch another person and they file a restraining order against me, I lose that permit.
The laws are there. It's the people BREAKING the laws that cause the problems. Heck, I think there was an ILLEGAL car race that caused the deaths of 8 people in Maryland - that's less than were killed by the gunman in Illinois. I don't see a big cry to "tighten car control".
If you can find a way to get rid of all the illegal guns in America then you will be a multi-millionaire and a hero, so please do it!
