And the police don't have to worry about being shot by a private citizen in the course of their duty, so they're much less likely to shoot first and ask questions later.<br /><br />And it was the American armed forces, trained professionals, not gun crazy Americans, who saved Australia from Japanese invasion.<br /><br />And after the Kokoda Track, an almost entirely Australian operation, the risk of a Japanese invasion was zero. America had greater reasons for fighting Japan than saving Australia.

The newly elected Prime Minister, John Howard, a conservative, in 1996 was almost immediately faced with the Port Arthur massacre, in which a single deranged gunman shot and killed 35 people at a popular family tourist attraction.<br /><br />And he almost immediately instituted perhaps the world's strongest gun control laws, including a mandatory gun buy back and strict gun licensing. Including a law that if you have previously been convicted of a violent crime, no matter how minor, you're not allowed to legally own a gun.<br /><br />And guns have to be safely stored.<br /><br />And guess what? I feel completely safe in Australia. There are very few places I'd be afraid to visit.bachfiendhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14752055891882312204noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3555199390227912207.post-15865075477804006172012-12-05T22:06:58.141-05:002012-12-05T22:06:58.141-05:00I love it.I love it.mregnorhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11431770851694587832noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3555199390227912207.post-41112849264245752462012-12-05T22:05:54.819-05:002012-12-05T22:05:54.819-05:00Politics can be so complicated.
