do you want to tell what your crime rates have done since your guns were taken away or would you like me to provide those stats for you





I couldnt resist:


In March 2000, WorldNetDaily reported that since Australia's widespread gun ban, violent crime had increased in the country.

WND reported that, although lawmakers responsible for passing the ban promised a safer country, the nation's crime statistics tell a different story:


Countrywide, homicides are up 3.2 percent.
Assaults are up 8.6 percent.
Amazingly, armed robberies have climbed nearly 45 percent.
In the Australian state of Victoria, gun homicides have climbed 300 percent.
In the 25 years before the gun bans, crime in Australia had been dropping steadily.
There has been a reported "dramatic increase" in home burglaries and assaults on the elderly.

This is natural though, just like the 1918 prohibition in the US, the more you take something away, the more ppl want it, if they give it back, youll see a spike for a while, then it will go back down, whereas just prohibiting it crime will continue to rise. why do u think the US has some of the highest stats for underage drinking and tabacco use? cuz we have the highest age limits on it, however we do have the worls lowest driving age eek: between 14-16, depending on the state.

don't fucking bother, we have one area here in Sydney that alone could double
or triple gun crime stats, our wonderful Lebanese gangs commit drive by shootings,
armed car-jackings and revenge attacks on family homes every night. This situation
has spiralled out of control in recent years but because they are mostly doing it
to each other, the rest of don't feel the need to go and buy guns.

It's still America that constantly provides the world with these regular random
rampages and emo school slayings...your emergency services couldn't even operate
in New Orleans without being fired at, but noooo...it's silly Australia that have
made a mistake, just look at the stats!!1 stupid:
