[Data Viz] After Uvalde, Gun Buying Searches Went Through the Roof in the US

Not a surprising result in any way.<p>More importantly, you can&#x27;t have more guns and less mass shootings. More guns equal more mass shootings. Am I wrong? Of course I am right. But it is also how enough of voting Americans wish to live, i.e., in fear, but with an opportunity of return fire.<p>More guns, so the argument goes, offer the scant odds to those good people in the right place at the right time to do the right thing. This does not seem like a logical way to grow a peaceful society.<p>I wish I could feel more empathy for this reasoning. Can anyone help me with some solid statistics backing up &#x27;more guns&#x27; being safer?

This doesn&#x27;t seem rational. Since the federal bad on assault rifles expired, the USA has done nothing to control guns in any form. There won&#x27;t be any gun control at all. But people buy more guns every time there&#x27;s a shooting in the news. Why?
