Ok.. lets see shall well with actual facts..

lets start from OCt1996..after the port Arthur massacre which started it all

so from 1996 gun ban to today, there have been 4 gun related mass shootings..

Same period prior to the gun ban..

I believe that special ops is awake and don't like what's going on. I don't think they like Hillary much either nor George Soros.

Nevertheless...

AS Australia marks 20 years since the Port Arthur massacre, guns still pose a massive threat to our nation.

There are more firearms in the country than ever before, more are imported, and owners are amassing larger arsenals in their homes.

Gun policy expert Philip Alpers, Adjunct Associate Professor at Sydney School of Public Health, warned this morning that boasts Australia has “solved the gun problem” are premature.

When John Howard introduced the National Firearms Act in 1996 after Martin Bryant’s devastating mass shooting, he swore we wouldn’t “go the American way”, and many believe he has been vindicated.

“People are so proud, in some cases, over-proud,” Prof Alpers told news.com.au. “They don’t realise there’s quite a lot of potential out there for gun-fuelled mayhem.”

Here’s why we’re not out of range just yet.

 if some here would  post  all the crime  where there are gun control laws in place, restriction, gun-free no go with a gun  zone it would fill pages and pages and if  added to that the crimes committed by illegals it would only add more and more pages so what's your point?

If I were to address some of Soros funded programs that are aimed at youth in schools  I would do so without laughing at how manipulated the youth are and their parents for allowing it. And then you'll use the p.c advantage on me or whoever to shut us up from speaking the truth about what;s really occurring.

In schools and during riots he funds both those areas of distortion

I don't want to use any advantage on you.. Just the thought of people throwing a tea party in fear of losing their guns, actually picturing that lol, made me laugh!! Hard!!

yep, shows pretty clear taking guns away did not stop murders.  it did not become any safer with no guns around. 

look at your homicide rate, it did not change much, slow and gradual rate decline over last 40 years, just like in usa with all the guns present.

do you even live in the U.S ?

About half my life.  The other half was stationed overseas in Belgium, Germany, England, Saudi Arabia, and Japan.  Father being in the Army and myself being Airforce.  Having a Brazilian wife who travels quite a bit for work takes me to other countries on occasion as well.  I will readily admit that being military and well traveled has shaped my outlook on the world and the US.

I have to ask.  Have you actually ever been anywhere outside the US?

The difference between one nation that banned guns and another nation that has not banned guns?

Well...yeah.

It isn't as if people are dusting off their hands and going "Okay, we're all safe now, no need for cops anymore!"

Gun bans aren't about stopping crime and gun deaths.  They are about controlling it to an acceptable level.

well Jesus said trust no man - I think that means because of human nature . So why would we trust  a group of  politicians with our Natural Right endowed in our birthright given from God to us. There's no argument in knowing that, unless people want to argue that there is no God and therefore we can't live accordingly to God  and even if that was the case, but it's not, there's still the issue of human human nature. and our Natural Rights. 

Lol. Jesus said trust no man... except for that guy that told you guns were part of your natural rights. That guy was totally right and should be trusted implicitly.

I didn't ask you all that but whatever its all good. why are you asking me that for? are you wanting for me to see things from another perspective  other than the Republic and the constitution in harmony?

It clearly says there are more guns than ever before. That isn't what I call controlling it. Maybe they have much harsher sentences now, for crimes committed with a gun. People in the US, with illegal guns in the commission of a crime, are given a slap on the wrist whether they shoot anyone or not.

agreed, but what it does not tell you is that a lot of those guns are not stored at home but at secure gun ranges, a number of gun owners have increased what they own, but most of those are not kept in the home :)

the point is restrictions do work,

But I have said it before, what worked here will not work there due to you guys have land borders.

But a restriction on what guns you can own and full background checks eg, criminal mental etc would work there.

Its not about taking the guns off you that's the thing

I almost thought your other post was funny until I realized that it wasn't so funny. if you saw the like and unlike real fast after. anyway...is this a question for me because I don't involve myself with other nations, I don't get involved with other nations and I don't appreciate my country involving itself in arming other nations either. they that are doing that are not in harmony with us We The People. We never vote them in office for any of that.

On the contrary, I am attempting to correct a false perception. The American Revolution was not about, nor was it caused by, any attempt by the British to exercise "gun control" over the Colonies. Perpetuating that myth only feeds into right-wing fantasies.

without guns and ammo there wouldn't of been a means to push back to  fight against tyranny.

That has nothing to do with the myth that the Revolutionary War was "caused by an attempt at gun control", Ella. It wasn't.

If someone has only ever seen a single color in their life, they will never truly understand the concept of colors or the differences between them.
