In the United States over the past 1,266 days, there have been 1,000 mass shootings, with the most recent being the Pulse Nightclub shootings in Orlando.


from the link in the OP



I'm stunned .... and still they let the NRA dictate terms to the politicians.

The NRA should be declared a terrorist organisation.

Mother Jones is a leftist group who disagrees with the mass shooting count they say 14 not 1000 in the last 3 years.

Here is mass shooting tally from 1982-2016-
motherjones.com/politics/2012/12/mass-shootings-mother-jones-full-data

The first female mass shooter was the muslim female offender with the San Bernadino terrorist attack.

The Americans have the 2A to protect them from Hoplophobic gun grabbing leftists

I always understood that a "mass shooting" was classified as being "four or more victims".  The Lockhart shooting of the Hunt Family only just qualifies, being Kim Hunt, 41, and her children Fletcher, 10, Mia, 8, and Phoebe, 6.  As sad as the murder of the Hunt Family was, I think you'll find it falls outside the study period.

When I saw the name of the author It's Philip Alpers who fled New Zealand after failing to impose gun laws on his fellow kiwis.
He claims to be a professor yet the Kiwis say he never enrolled in University he did drugs by day and partied at night.

New Zealand had their last mass shooting in early 1997.

New Zealand allows semi auto rifles with silencers along with pump action -semi auto shotguns for recreational shooters.

New Zealand abolished long gun registration in the 1980's.

Why has NZ had no mass shootings since 1997 the gun grabbers say having a semi auto rifle will turn you into a mass murdering terrorist

Actually, the title of the paper in the American Medical Association Journal makes it clear it studied up to before the Lockhart killing, Baron, which you'd know if you'd clicked on the link in the ABC article.

The paper's title is, "Association Between Gun Law Reforms and Intentional Firearm Deaths in Australia, 1979-2013"[emphasis added].

Ah, the old, "shoot the messenger" attack.  You are so predictable, Baron, just so predictable.

Alpers actually has the title of "Adjunct Associate Professor".   If you knew anything about what you're talking about the two adjectives before the term "professor" describe that he is an "adjunct" (ie, "connected with") "associated" (ie "associated with") academic.  It means he's an honorary professor.   It is a perfectly acceptable academic title within Australia academia.

If you go to the bit I highlighted bwian it's in the report you cite under conclusions, the gun grabbers have been caught red handed telling lies.

An adjunct associate professor is not the same as a honorary professor they are 2 different things, Alpers pretends to be a professor he has no academic qualifications.

How is using his academic title "telling lies", Baron?

If you look at his staff page at the University of Sydney, it makes it clear his title is "Adjunct Associate Protessor".

If you look up "Adjunct Associate Professor" it is clear it is a legal, Australian, Academic title, awarded as an honorary to a non-Academic qualified researcher.

If anybody is "telling lies" it is your gun nut attackers who don't appear to have bothered to figure that out, being American...  Roll Eyes Roll Eyes Roll Eyes

Quote:

Sure of that, Baron?

Quote:
The system of academic titles and ranks in Australia is classified to a common five levels, A-E, although the titles of these levels may differ between insititutions. These are:

    Level A - Tutor/Associate Lecturer
    Level B - Lecturer
    Level C - Senior Lecturer
    Level D - Reader/Associate Professor
    Level E - Professor

These levels correspond to salary levels set by the Australian government's Higher education Academic Salaries Award (2002). There has been a significant increase in academics at level D and E (Associate professor and professor) in recent years. The number of academics at these levels increased by 70% from 1996 to 2008.

In order to receive the title of professor, the applicant must pass each university's minimum standards statements and promotion policies, which are derived from the Higher education Academic Salaries award. Three key attributes are examined: recognition, distinction and leadership. Leadership in research is arguably the most important. Some universities also expect leadership in developing the curriculum and in the teaching and management of staff and students.

The difference between professor and associate professor is that there is less of an imperative to demonstrate leadership qualities for the title of associate professor. Still, in order to receive the title, it is required that the applicant has made an 'outstanding contribution' and that the applicant is usually recognised at a national or international level.

In some universities, the title of professor and associate professor can also be conferred with appointment to a senior management position without the need for an extensive academic record or a research higher degree. This has been criticised. It has also been lauded.

Adjunct and conjoint professor is an honorary title bestowed upon a person to formally recognise that person's non-employment 'special relationship' with the university.


[Source]

So, basically Mr. Alpers has been given an honorific title.  He is correct to use that title on papers he has published.  He is not lying.    Roll Eyes Roll Eyes Roll Eyes

They were caught red handed telling lies about no mass shootings from 1996 to 2016.

Even you admit Lockhart was a mass shooting.

Do you think Philip Alpers and Simon Chapman should be telling lies about no mass shootings when we have had them.

They lose all credibility when caught telling lies, that lie was easy to debunk.

Yet the paper they are reporting on finished it's study in 2013, Baron.  So, how were the paper writers lying again?

The paper's study was until 2013, Baron, not 2014, so how were they lying again?

You really appear rather fixated on this for some obscure reason.  Do you always have problems facing reality?

Oh, and how was Adjunct Associate Professor Alpers lying about his honorific academic title again?

You mean he wasn't?  Amazing.    Roll Eyes Roll Eyes Roll Eyes

You are the bullshit artist bwian, I see why people don't bother with your forum with a dopey dim wit like you running it.

Your link from JAMA under Conclusions says no mass shootings from 1996 to may 2016 which is a clear lie, do you even bother checking what is written in your links.

Conclusions
Following the enactment of gun law reforms in Australia in 1996, there were no mass firearm killings throught May 2016.

There was a more rapid decline in firearm deaths between 1997 and 2013 compared with before 1997, but also a decline in total non firearm suicide and homicide deaths of a greater magnitude.
Because of this, it is not possible to determine whether the change in firearm deaths can be attributed to gun law reforms



There you go this paper in the JAMA says it's not possible to determine whether gun laws had any effect on firearm homicides.

The homicide rate by any method was 1.9 per 100K in 1995, firearm homicide rate was 0.3 per 100K in 1995
The current homicide rate is around 1.0 per 100K.

There is no evidence our gun laws had any effect on the homicide rate.

Face the facts, you are wrong.   Lockhart was excluded from the study because it fell outside the study's scope (2014 versus 2013).

There is also no evidence that the gun laws had any effect on whether or not Mr. Hunt would have killed his wife and kids, before committing suicide.   He used a "a W Cashmore double-barrelled shotgun", according to the Sydney Morning Herald report, Baron.   I don't believe double-barrelled shotguns were declared unlawful after Port Arthur, were they?

Anyway, as the study did not include an event in 2014 in it's study of such events, which was only until 2013, I think you're barking up the wrong tree.  A not unusual state for a gun nut like yourself.   Roll Eyes Roll Eyes Roll Eyes

It says in the conclusion no mass shootings from 1996 to may 2016 did you read that bwian?

They redefined mass shootings to 5 or more killed to exclude Lockhart, the gun grabbers move the goal posts to suit their bullshit.

Since they redefined mass shootings to 5 or more killed are they going to hold the Americans to the same standard to qualify for mass shootings?

Must be quiet in your crappy forum if you are back trolling this forum

They are making the study, Baron.  They get to define matters how they like.  There is no hard and fast rule as to what constitutes a "mass shooting event".

Time you started your own study.  Might be amusing to see you picked apart for a change by academics.    Grin Grin Roll Eyes Roll Eyes

Conclusions
Following the enactment of gun law reforms in Australia in 1996, there were no mass firearm killings throught May 2016.

There was a more rapid decline in firearm deaths between 1997 and 2013 compared with before 1997, but also a decline in total non firearm suicide and homicide deaths of a greater magnitude.
Because of this, it is not possible to determine whether the change in firearm deaths can be attributed to gun law reforms



There you go this paper in the JAMA says it's not possible to determine whether gun laws had any effect on firearm homicides.

The homicide rate by any method was 1.9 per 100K in 1995, firearm homicide rate was 0.3 per 100K in 1995
The current homicide rate is around 1.0 per 100K.

There is no evidence our gun laws had any effect on the homicide rate.


There is also no evidence that the gun laws had any effect on whether or not Mr. Hunt would have killed his wife and kids, before committing suicide.

Anyway, as the study did not include an event in 2014 in it's study of such events, which was only until 2013, I think you're barking up the wrong tree.  A not unusual state for a gun nut like yourself.   Roll Eyes Roll Eyes Roll Eyes


Under Table 1 the study mentions Lockhart bwian and how they redfined mass shootings to 5.

The data in Table 1 in that study is from January 1979 to may 2016 have a look bwian ya dopey dim wit it even mentions Lockhart and Logan in 2014 along with redefining mass shootings to 5 or more killed.

They have redefined mass shootings to 5 or more killed to exclude Lockhart, when they say guns are a problem laws aren't working they might redefine it to 3 killed to boost their numbers. 

Did you miss this bit in Conclusions from your link to JAMA bwian?

What a jolly subject - and what crock of Shiite!

I'd bet money there's been more shootings since 1996. '96 to '16, 20 years! Every day there's gunshots.

It's just that there's been less people killed as a result.

When Chopper was in business, there was none of this drive-by shite - you never shot a fibro house. You simply shot who you meant to shoot.

Gang activity and firearms is a subject no-one wants to touch and Roger Rogerson has finally been caught.

If it weren't for farmers and ferals, the average Aussie bloke would be lucky to get a shot away at all.

Other than it decreasing. Oh sure, you can find other factors to explain the drop in violence, but you cant just exclude gun law reform.
By the way im pretty sure that the rate of homicide by firearm has dropped signifigantly since 1995. It wouldnt be crazy to think there may a causal link between this legislation and crime rates.

What's the point?

According to 'everyone', such things never happen:

http://www.abc.net.au/news/2016-06-26/man-charged-with-two-sex-attacks-after-hig...

A 'gun nut', an 'Islamist', a 'P' plater and a 'rape accusation' are hate crime terminology. Such accusations immediately  invalidate criminal charges because they are hate based.

Shawn O'Shawnesy would have walked free, not because of the perceived religious bias possibly affecting the outcome of the trial, but because of his refusal to apologise to the victims, thus rendering little mercy from the assembled jury.

Ha, ha!

It's an Islamic inspired hate crime. Why is this not recognisable and called for what it is?

The question remains, what is the best to do with this animal?

Do we lock him up in his infectious condition? Or, for fear of his safety in jail, do we compassionately export him back to his family and country of origin?

He's no asset to this society, as has already been proven.

Best we give him a pat on the back and a kick in the arse on the way out.

Simple.

Exactly, Lionel, what is the point when you are chasing a dead cat?

The Baron likes to be aggressive and talk big.  Yet, when a pin is sued to prick his balloon, he deflates just as fast.

What a shame that you've chosen to change the subject.   What's wrong, cannot speak to the thread?  Have to introduce your Islamophobia?  Tsk, tsk.   Roll Eyes

So,  as you've stepped up to the plate, do you have a link which proves the Baron's contention that statistics don't support the original paper's premise?    Roll Eyes Roll Eyes

There as many guns now as there were prior to '96, probably as many law abiding gun owners too; but some how the gun laws stopped mass shootings without any other influence having any input.

Sounds like a load of sh1t to me.

1995-

That link only provides the raw statistics, Baron.   How they are interpreted is up to the researcher.   The researchers from the original paper, state that the decline was because of the ban on semi-automatic longarms.   As semi-automatic longarms and pump-action shotguns were the ones banned in 1996, I think they have a point.   Thus far, we have seen you twisting and turning, trying character assassination against the writers of the original paper and myself and others.   We have yet to see you, until now, actually start addressing the findings of the paper.   Have you finally run out of puff, Baron?  No where else to hide?  Roll Eyes

In 1996 we saw the banning of private ownership of semi-automatic longarms and pump-action shotguns.   We saw the banning of the private ownership of all firearms for the purpose of self-defence.    We saw a consummate drop in the number of homicides attributable to those events, coupled with the buyback scheme that the state governments operated.

Thus far you have not made any sense as to what could have caused that drop in the number of homicides that occurred after 1996.  To you, it is all just magic it seems.   Roll Eyes

Ok. I understand barons pov now.
Gun violence was declining prior to 1996. Therefore any changes to gun laws after these dates cannot influence gun violence after these dates...........

Baron is very happy to talk 86~96 statistics.
Baron is very very happy to ignore 96~2016, as it shows an acceleratiing decrease in gun violence.

Please correct me if i have misinterpreted your position baron.

Lockhart was a mass shooting therefore it's bullshit to claim the 1996 gun laws ended mass shootings.

New Zealand has had no mass shootings since early 1997 despite allowing the guns we banned, if it was the type of gun why has NZ had no mass shootings?

There was a fairly significant decline in all gun deaths for over a decade and a half before our 1996 gun laws.
This downward trend would have continued with or without the 1996 gun laws there are numerous studies that back this view.
Happy to see you agree there was a significant downward trend with all gun deaths before 1996.

Brians linked study said non firearm homicides declined at a far greater magnitude than firearm homicides after our 1996 gun laws.
What caused non firearm homicides to decline at a far greater magnitude compared to firearm homicides after 1996?

They are in this forum bwian, are you too stupid to find them? Roll Eyes Roll Eyes

Lets start from the beginning-

1980-
Firearm homicide rate 0.8 per 100K
Firearm suicide rate 3.7 per 100K
Accidental shooting deaths 0.4 per 100K

1995-
Firearm homicide rate 0.3 per 100K
Firearm suicide rate  2.1 per 100K
Accidental shooting deaths 0.2 per 100K

What caused this pre existing decline in firearm deaths before 1996 gun laws bwian? Roll Eyes Roll Eyes Roll Eyes Roll Eyes Roll Eyes Roll Eyes
abs.gov.au/ausstats/abs@.nsf/productsbytitle/9C85BD1298C075EACA2568A900139342?Op...

Does that link say the military style semi autos were responsible for 1.3 % of all firearm deaths from 1980-1995?  Roll Eyes Roll Eyes Roll Eyes Roll Eyes Roll Eyes Roll Eyes Roll Eyes



That link only provides the raw statistics, Baron.   How they are interpreted is up to the researcher.   The researchers from the original paper, state that the decline was because of the ban on semi-automatic longarms. 


Only 27 of the 813 firearm homicides from 1980-1995 were done with semi autos that were banned in 1996.
If we add the 35 from Pt Arthur we only have 62 out of 916 homicides done with semi auto rifles from 1980-1996.

We banned the types of gun that caused the least deaths according to ABS data, hunting rifles caused the most deaths they are still available.

This type of gun caused the most deaths according to statistics, it's Category B which means maximum 10 round magazines.

I'll hazard a few statements, based purely on observation and keeping abreast of the news.

1. There are now more registered guns in this county than in '96, and more illegal guns.

2. There have been more reported shooting incidences since '96 than the previous 20 years.

3. I would estimate that 90% of reported shootings since '96 involve illegal or stolen firearms, and are committed by unlicensed offenders.

4. That the laws enacted in '96 have done little to curb mass shootings, only that is has delayed the inevitable.

5. That the next mass shooting will be carried out by a 'disaffected immigrant' with an illegal, and/or unlicensed weapon.

We have more to worry about, in this country, than the number of licensed weapons, and/or owners.

It has stopped massed shootings (for the most part) since the 1996 gun laws were enacted.

All the mass shootings which have occurred since 1996 have occurred with legally available firearms.

French Lesson: Guns not Critical To Jihadi Violence

by A.J. Caschetta

July 15, 2016


France is about as close to a national gun-free zone as you can get.

Lesson number one from France is that gun laws will not stop jihad terror.
......
......
Banning firearms did not prevent the Nice, France attacker from finding and using firearms.

It did not prevent the Bataclan killers, or the killers at the Charlie Hebdo offices, or the killer at the Hyper Kasher Deli, or the killer at the Jewish school in Toulouse.

Nor did it prevent the Moroccan jihadi on the train in Paris, who would have done much more damage had it not been for the valiant efforts of three type-A, gung ho Americans with nerves of steel.

While the crew of the French train ran away from the shooter, Spencer Stone, Alek Skarlatos and Anthony Sadler ran towards the gunfire and subdued him.

Lesson number three from France is that only by fighting back can you survive.

Bwian is bullshitting again.

Farmers are allowed semi auto rimfires and pump action shotguns under Category C firearm license, Professional shooters are allowed semi auto rifles and pump action shotguns under Category D license.

Crimtrac data shows just over 5 million registered gun in Australia, in 1996 there were just over 3 million registered guns

The NSW police minister Troy Grant has stated greater than 97% of all gun crime is done by criminals with unregistered firearms.

Bwian is a sad pathetic pissant who trolls this forum because nobody could be bothered with his forum, what a sad dickhead.

Quite incorrect, actually.

They used the definition of '5 or more' to remain consistent with a previous report.

" ... verified reports of all mass shooting incidents in Australia (defined here, as in a previous analysis, 8 as ≥5 victims killed by gunshot, not including the perpetrator)."

You see that '8'? It links to a reference.

8
Chapman  S, Alpers  P, Agho  K, Jones  M.  Australia’s 1996 gun law reforms: faster falls in firearm deaths, firearm suicides, and a decade without mass shootings. Inj Prev. 2006;12(6):365-372.
PubMed   |  Link to Article

And when you click on 'Link to Article' it takes you to the 2006 report.

Note that date: 2006.

The Lockhart shooting happened after 2006, so what you claim is actually impossible.

"5 or more" comes from the 2006 investigation (long before Lockhart).

And, there is no universally accepted official definition of "mass shooting".

The '5 or more' comes from 2006.

Therefore, not "redefined" to exclude Lockhart.

They did redefine it they are the only people in the world who say mass shootings are 5 or more killed.

Of course when those so called academics talk about mass shootings in the USA they dn't use 5 or more killed they use 4 shot which means under their criteria Monash University was a mass shooting.

yes they redefined mass shootings-en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Mass_shooting_#Definition

Baron nailed that welfare bludging houso who fritters away his life in this internet forum in a futile attempt to change opinions, your white flag is accepted little pecca.

Fact 1: you said they "redefined" it in order to exclude Lockhart.

Fact 2: the definition comes from 2006.

Fact 3: Lockhart was in 2014.

Fact 4: your claim is thus impossible.

Fact 5: there isn't one official, globally accepted definition of 'mass shooting'.

Would you like to debate me on each of these facts, one by one?

Please say 'yes', as I'd really like to do you slowly on this one.

So, Fact 1 - do you dispute it, or accept it?

They didn't 'redefine' a thing.

"5 or more" comes from the 2006 investigation (long before Lockhart).

And, there is no universally accepted official definition of "mass shooting".





They did redefine it they are the only people in the world who say mass shootings are 5 or more killed.



Fact 1: you said they "redefined" it in order to exclude Lockhart.

Fact 2: the definition comes from 2006.

Fact 3: Lockhart was in 2014.

Fact 4: your claim is thus impossible.

Fact 5: there isn't one official, globally accepted definition of 'mass shooting'.

Would you like to debate me on each of these facts, one by one?

Please say 'yes', as I'd really like to do you slowly on this one.

So, Fact 1 - do you dispute it, or accept it?



"They redefined mass shootings to 5 or more killed to exclude Lockhart ... " Fact 1 Confirmed

Is there any need to continue, Baron?

I assume you concede defeat.

Why must we follow the US's lead in a definition, Baron?

Oh, 'cause you say so?  Sorry, doesn't do it for me but most of what you say doesn't prove anything for me either...    Roll Eyes


Do you think these so called academics who redefined mass shootings to 5 or more killed have a sensible definition when 4 people could be shot dead with 75 shot and wounded yet that would not count as a mass shooting?

Sorry bwian most of what you say doesn't do anything for anyone or you would have more than just yourself in your pitiful pathetic forum.

Those gun grabbing assclowns are the only people in the world who say a mass shooting is 5 or more killed for Australia yet they don't use the same definition for the USA with mass shootings.

You can't blame him.

Thy didn't "redefine" the term to exclude Lockhart, and I've proven that beyond all doubt.

Correlation does not denote causation, Baron.  Something every statistics student learns in first year.   There is a strong correlation though, it is just impossible to prove one way or the t'other.     Roll Eyes
