Hes not American, he lives in Victoria and has never been to the U.S. He doesnt even know what the 2nd amendment states.

He's clearly a closet yank though.

In a time of universal deceit — telling the truth is a revolutionary act.

No evidence whatsoever it can be attributed to George Orwell or Eric Arthur Blair (in fact the same guy)

America has no issues Bobby while they have people like Mort armed and ready in their homes to protect the children. What they need is an armed Mort in every school. If that doesnt work they could give the kids guns to protect themselves, clearly the 2nd amendment doesnt make any mention of having to be an adult to own a gun.

So, you can continually say how all Americans are idiots because of our American Gun Laws, & I hope you understand I, even though I live here in Australia, will always feel free to say the same about Australia, & Australians because of the Gun Laws here......no matter how offended you are or how what I say may hurt your particular feelings.

I added that last part because I know, & have met far more Australians while living here that feel exactly the same as I do about the "Laws".......some are fellow NRA members too........some since meeting me, & some before. Wink

[/i][/font][/size]

You obviously don't met a lot of people, in Bumbugger Vic.

Plus having you attack gun laws doesn't hurt my feelings. It tends to make me proud of my country for doing something you attack.

Good for you......don't ever change........always be proud of your Country.......I am of mine.....both of them too!

Laws.......now that's be a whole 'nuther kettle o' fish!!!

http://33sm.net16.net/smileys/2ndAmendment.gif

You should watch 4 Corners tonight Panther, could be a good one for you.

Can I ask you a question?

Quote:
The 1996 reforms prohibited ordinary Australians from owning automatic and semi-automatic firearms, and pump-action shotguns.

Of the millions of guns currently in circulation, "the great bulk" are legal, said Associate Prof Alpers.

Last year, the government estimated that about 260,000 were illegal or unlicensed firearms, including 10,000 semi-automatic handguns.

A national amnesty targeting the "grey market" - unregistered guns that were kept by households after 1996 - retrieved more than 57,000 firearms last year.

Based on the above, even if the numbers might not be absolutely 100% correct, the amount of illegal firearms....including many semi-automatics......based on the above, do you still think that the 1996 Firearm Reforms are 100% responsible for those firearms out there, not being used in a mass murder since 1996 -- ?

I'd just like your honest answer regarding your firm beliefs on my statement, & the Reforms.......

If you do....why?

If you don't....why not?

Any society where they value their guns more than their children is fundamentally sick, I agree.

You'r opinion Bobby......I don't disagree 100%, but you are free to say what you will.....

That said, America isn't going to change because a few people die because of firearms........it's been happening since Colonial times, & our laws never changed about the Right to Keep & Bear Arms......the slaying of 20 or so school children didn't change them, so I doubt, if that didn't, nothing will......Not because I say so, no, because the American People say so.

How can America stop guns getting into the hands of psychopaths?

Same way Australians probably do......pray a lot, & believe in a huge amount of good fortune/luck

Rhino.......I do sincerely hope this never, never, ever comes to pass, but if a psychopath just happened to get his/her hands on a couple of those illegal semi-automatics we all know are out there in the Australian wild, & decided to slaughter 12 lil school children one fine day, what would you say then?.....That Australians don't care about their children because something so hideous was allowed to happen here in Australia?

Allowed, yes, because we knew that we couldn't stop them all, but we both know they are out there.....both the guns & psychopaths.......what could be said then? Luck just ran out?

A. 64

Only 84 days in to the year, and already 64 mass shootings.

Your point?

That wont even phase Americans when it becomes a choice between their Right to Keep & Bear Arms, & a few lives......

Don't get me wrong, but Murder....regardless of the weapon used, is still murder, & murder is against the law......punishing murderers gets some results......taking away firearms from law abiding citizens, who will probably never commit a crime using their firearms, will never, ever get the results you fantasize about.....
