There is no "fantastic" outcome.

Fantastic != Good

No mass murderer has ever caused a sea-change of how things are, as a result of the murder they commit ... Mass murder never has the results these killers seem to think it will.

And what results are those? I can't speak for any spree killers, but I've never gotten the impression that they believed their killings would actually change anything. They typically seem to be acting purely out of revenge, albeit misplaced.

And how despicable to say that kids should be armed.

Who said that? The OP on 4 Chan didn't. I haven't seen anyone in these comments say that.

GUNS ARE THE PROBLEM, they are NEVER the solution.

Gun control would be an effective way to reduce gun violence, and on its own that's a credible argument. But guns literally are not the problem. The problem is the fact that people want to lash out at society and the societal/governmental forces that push them there. I'm not saying guns are good or not to control them, just don't forget you're treating a symptom rather than the root problem. If we were to only pass gun control these problems will continue to fester. Again, I'm not saying don't do it.

I am 65 years old. If you aren't, I don't expect you to understand

Most of the people in power and in the electorate who have been stonewalling gun control as well as any kind of social welfare programs that could prevent mass killings are older than 65. It is old indifference, or even contempt, that's holding us back, not young ignorance.
