All the gun violence and police officers being shot is drawing a lot of media attention and ruining the image the public has of gun owners.

I think you are correct Oldman45. Especially since the focus of the Nationalized Press and others has NOT been on the criminals but on the alleged unreasonableness of legitimate firearms owners for not rolling over on new gun control laws. It's a given that the national LEO organizations will toe the line and publicly support additional legislation.
For being a random event the timing of the tragedy sure took the wind out of the new Republicans sails and was probably the only way gun control would come back on the table this year.
