At the White House on Tuesday, U.S. President Joe Biden met with New Zealand’s Prime Minister Jacinda Ardern, in the wake of a pair of mass shootings in the U.S.

Less than a month after a gunman killed 50 people at two mosques in New Zealand in 2019, that country banned assault rifles, military-style semi-automatic weapons and high-capacity magazines with near-unanimous support from Parliament.

But even the recent attack on an elementary school in Texas is unlikely to change the fact that the U.S. can expect more shootings and more deaths.
