most gun deaths in the US are suicide.

Then you take into account that most gun violence is gang related, which just points toward the fact that the US has a gang problem.
It's very much a social issue, which can be fixed with better social programs. See how much of a difference such programs helped in the 90s in lowering the violence levels in the US, especially since the 80s and early 90s had HUUUUUGE gang problems.
Also, the media perpetuates mass shootings. Points again toward it being a social issue.
