“Although the shooting has reignited the debate regarding gun control, fewer Americans today than after the shooting at Sandy Hook Elementary School in December 2012 believe laws governing gun sales should be made stricter. In the wake of the Sandy Hook shooting, 58 percent of Americans said gun laws should be made stricter, compared with 49 percent today. Additionally, the percentage of Americans who said gun laws should be made less strict has increased from 6 percent in December 2012, to 13 percent now – the highest amount in Gallup’s survey history dating to 1990.”
