It's interesting to look at the two different episodes of violence in Florida. Because they're quite different in how a draconic gun control would have effected them.

In this case this woman would likely not have died, it's much harder to kill a person with a knife than a gun, and even if the guy got a gun illegal, he would be unlikely to have any training with it.

In the Orlando Massacre on the other hand, a planned act of terror, our experience with terror in Europe, tells us that gun control have less effect on such acts of violence. Planned act of terror on strangers are simply harder to deal with than opportunistic killing of specific individuals.
