This is the best summary I could come up with:

It is 1am on March 31, a week ago, when an unknown man opens fire on a group of young women celebrating a birthday in Chicago, Illinois.

Bede Harris, an expert in constitutional law at Charles Sturt University, says while every state varies, all “ultimately come up against the problem that … the US Supreme Court has the final say”.

“And because the US Supreme Court case law that’s been established over the decades is relatively lax, many attempts by states to limit gun ownership fall foul of the US constitution,” Dr Harris says.

Bruce Wolpe, a non-resident Senior Fellow at the University of Sydney’s United States Studies Centre, says the gun debate is “deadlocked” for Republicans and Democrats.

In February, former president and Republican election frontrunner Donald Trump told thousands at an event organised by the National Rifle Association (NRA) he would undo all gun restrictions enacted by the Biden administration.

“Every single Biden attack on gun owners and manufacturers will be terminated on my very first week back in office, perhaps my first day,” he told the crowd at the NRA’s Presidential Forum.
