And I don't think the nuts that shot up Columbine, VT, Fort Hood, Tucson, the theater in Colorado, and Sandy Hook, were anti-gun-nuts attempting to get more gun control legislation passed.

Why not?

You have to be a sick psychopath to do what they did. Why would any motivation be any more likely/unlikely than any other?

I have never once heard of any evidence that shows gun control was the motivation for anything of these nuts to do their shootings. If you have some, please show it.

It is possible in the future that some nut might it into his head to do one of these shootings in an effort to get gun control legislation passed? It is. But was that the motivation for the people that did the shootings I mentioned? I haven't heard that it was.

Honestly, I don't suppose any of these shooters were anti-gun-nuts. I believe there is something wrong with them... but not that.

However, I am willing to suppose that someone set them up that was. Someone that let the proverbial lion run wild in the proverbial village because it met their own agenda.

And, barring that, I firmly believe that anti-gun-nuts decided it was the perfect opportunity to push legislation... one that they have been praying for.
