Sure it does - just like all the other times that it really did feel different. After Colin Ferguson (Time magazine ran a cover that said "ENOUGH!" and then ran an article that proceeded to demonstrate their total ignorance of anything whatsoever to do with guns).
And after Columbine, and after Parkland, and after the Vegas music festival shooting, and after the shooting at a Republican softball game (OOOPS! - Never mind on that last one).
Don’t forget the subway shooter, and the Rittenhouse verdict.
