You'd think so, but I don't think that's the case. There have been many multiple-death stabbings in Asia, for instance:

And many multi-death vehicular attacks around the world, like the one in Nice, France that killed 86 and wounded 458.

The people who want to ban guns are aware that doing so won't end violence, but they have a plan: they'll ban knives and vehicles as well. It's already being called for in the UK and in this very discussion. They'll never stop because being "against violence" is an easy way to score cheap political points, no matter how useless such measures are.
