Take that!

Now count bombings, stabbings, poisonings, smotherings... I bet the kind of people who are anti-gun would not help stop a massacre when they see one, and then not stop to think why Republicans don't feel safe.

You also made it illegal to f**k the neighbor's sheep. Coincidence? I think not.

Atleast no-one has done that either. That would be weird

yet before the law changes, they had mass shootings

Agree, but it's only a matter of time when you have 1/4 million illegal black market guns ending up down under.

my original point was "mass" you take the land mass of Aussie with 20 million, well, you do the math. You're gonna have more traffic accidents in LA than you are in Fargo.

Los Angeles has millions of people. Fargo has 100,000 roughly. But anyway, I'm not sure you are aware the population of Australia are not evenly spaced over the whole continent? The people cluster in things called cities too. If it wasn't anything to do with gun control, can you explain why Australia has had no mass shootings.

Yes I am aware of the population spread. East coast west coast. Just like the united states. The more the people the more the chances. But attributing the fact they have no mass murders just because they had a gun buyback is not a definitive reason. I could also make a meme that says Sandy Hook, Orlando all happened under the Obama administration. People have opinions and will form different ones with the same information.

yet there was no major gun law overhaul so the comparison would fail

So Mr. President, what is the first law you will enact?

look at any other country with better gun control, plenty of examples to use

provide incentives to hand in automatic weapons

But that would NOT have included the 2 weapons Omar had on him.

What about Martin Place when the muslim got an ASSAULT RIFLE and shot those people.

He used a 50 year old shotgun to shoot one person. Not a mass shooting.

Ted saysprovide incentives to hand in automatic weapons"
(Sorry, it won't let me comment anymore on your comment.)

But that would NOT have included the 2 weapons Omar had on him.

fully automatic and semi automatic are both automatic

No, they're not. And it's not a matter of opinion.

But yet way different. Just like our opinions. Nuthin wrong with that.

Our opinion differs in that you do not believe gun restrictions would affect mass shootings, despite every evidence to the contrary in other countries. The thing wrong with that is mass shootings continue in regularity.

Last week 9 were taken out in Kalamazoo in a mass killing. Did you hear about that on all the news channels or Obama? No, because it was a drunk truck vs. 9 cyclists. Drunk driving laws sure fixed that one. But you sure did hear about the Uber driver in kalamazoo didn't we? Because oh my gosh that was a gun!!! Removing legal weapons from legal owners is not the answer, removing them from criminals may be the answer, but yet they will find a way. If you don't believe that, then well, whatever.

are you suggesting removing drink driving laws will decrease crashes..

Not what I said. I was making a comparison on how well our current drunk driving "laws" are working. Wonder if all the bars would be happy if cops started hanging around the bars at 2 a.m. when the patrons start leaving?

Hm, so seatbelt laws have not eradicated vehicle deaths. Maybe you think those laws are pointless?

Dang ...no more replies allowed again. Yes, the seatbelt law is fine. I'm sure the drunk driver was law abiding seatbelt wearer when he mass murdered those cyclists.

you spelled "sawed off shotgun" wrong
