The homicide count for Los Angeles is 300 people in a population of 3.7 million. They have 7.6 murders per 100,000 people while New York City has more then double the amount of people living in a much more confined area with only 6.4 murders per 100,000 people.
Gun control works.

Birth Control works.
but I believe Gun Control does work and more so in these kind of situations.
Furthermore, All guns in the suspect possession were legally obtained, locally, with only a criminal background check. This guy was a PhD student, I highly doubt he had the criminal connections to get the kind of weapons he was using if they weren't readily available at your local gun store.
Gun Control may not be the end all answer, but it definitely prevents non-criminally aligned nut bags easy access to guns.
