Massacre in Orlando may prove to be a turning point in US gun control debate

The US now has a unique opportunity to shift the burden of proof about the necessity for stronger gun control regulation, writes Frederic Lemieux

The Orlando mass shooting is different from the terrorist attacks in Brussels, Paris, and San Bernardino, California.

Different also from the massacre at Sandy Hook Elementary School in Newtown, Connecticut, or the multiplex movie theatre in Aurora, Colorado, or the Virginia Tech mass shooting in Blacksburg, Virginia.
