NONE of the measures I have seen advanced would have prevented the recent tragedy. In fact, not even the supporters make any claim that their measures would prevent gun tragedies. Therefore you must look for another reason.
Most people are unwitting tools...

I agree that the legislation would not have prevented Sandy Hook, and am glad that Feinstein's legislation was dropped.
The fact that no legislation will ever completely eliminate some of the tragedies like Sandy Hook is not enough for some people to stop their efforts to achieve gun control. There are many who would gladly give up all the guns if it saved one life.
