Zou Yujiang (R) asks about the price of vegetable at a restaurant along the National Highway 206, June 12, 2018. Zou has to spend every penny wisely because of the limited budget on the road. Zou Yujiang, 41 years old, is a truck driver from Gao'an City of Jiangxi Province. He has spent most of his time on the road, transporting goods from one place to another. There have been over 21 million employees in the industry of the road freight transportation in China so far. Like Zou Yujiang, most of them make a living on trucks with little time staying with families. Their hard works have contributed to the fast and reliable delivery services of the country.

Things would probably be better with registration, background check, and safety training required for owning firearms nationwide with regular renewals.
And maybe biometric security one day so only the registered owner of a firearm can use it. Or other forms of security and accountability to decrease the chances of a non-owner getting access to or using a firearm.
Can't completely prevent stupid or crazy though, and sometimes it's true that a good guy with a gun is needed to stop a bad guy with a gun.
In this particular case the Chinese exchange student and her boyfriend would likely still be at a disadvantage being foreign nationals, so probably would not be allowed to be armed anyways. So I guess like you said no firearms for civilians would be the environment where they would've likely been safest.
