Unfortunately Sandy Hook showed that there is no such situation. Or rather, the “response” is just to make it easier to get guns. If there’s a clear ideology at play, then a crackdown might happen against anyone seen as sharing the ideology, but it’s more likely to happen if the attacker doesn’t use a gun (and isn’t a right-wing Christian). But the fact is, US history involves right-wing groups/individuals routinely killing groups of people on the left (of them), and the response is generally… nothing. Nothing bad for the killers, anyways - right-wing groups (e.g. law enforcement) might lionize them, if anything.
