Let's examine the overall murder rate and the gun murder rate in Australia. Take note both are virtually unchanged and unaffected by the gun ban. The Australian experience and the other historical facts above prove it. While the law-abiding citizens turned them in, the criminals did not, and criminals still possess their guns

Some more fun tables to shut liberals up:

ASSAULT

The trend in assaults shows an average growth of five percent each year from 1995 to 2007. The Australians "banned" guns in 1997 as you will recall.

ROBBERY

Oh look how armed robbery increased after the gun ban. Look how robbery increased too. Note that incidence of armed robbery as compared to unarmed robbery never changed after the gun ban. It's almost as if the only affect the gun ban had was to increase the number of people that were robbed (or assaulted).

MURDER

Oh look. after we banned guns in 1997, people murdered by guns decreased by 10%. On the other hand, people murdered by knives increased by 10%. Well, at least you weren't shot to death and thank goodness no criminals were hurt in the commission of their murders. Awesome!

RAPE

Reported sexual assaults have increased by 51 percent since 1995, at an average of four percent each year. Let's not forget about those little Sheilas now. look at that. They're getting raped more often than ever now that the rapists know they're unarmed. How about that.

I'm sure it wouldn't be that way in America though because our citizens are known to be SOOOO much more civilized than those violent barbaric Australians.

hmmm, wait a second...on second thought-you know what? There's no way I'll be turning my guns in.

Australians making their society safer, one dump truck load at a time.

Now they need to ban those horrible knives. Because we all know that when a liberal idea is tried and it doesn’t work it is just because we didn’t do enough of it.

Do you have links to the data or whitepapers backing up the graphs? I would like to reference these but generally include the source data to support the chart.

Looks like China will have a nice South Pacific naval base/slave camp if they ever go to war with the west. They will be able to steamroll over the Aussies in a few days.

Thanks for the stats, I’ll return the favor. These are US STATS. Word of caution, crime is not counted accurately. More of our governments fuzzy math tricks. It is Hierarchical Counted, only the most serious crime is counted if there were actually 4 crimes committed at the time. Kidnap, rape, rob then kill a person, only the murder counts. Rest flushed down the toilet.

First one you have to dig through, for the meat. Second is Parole and Probation violators. It is the only study available for that. Each State will have it’s own Stats. This is a sampling of total through out US State Prison systems, does not include federal.

Recidivism
http://www.bjs.gov/index.cfm?ty=tp&tid=17
These offenders had accumulated 4.1 million arrest charges before their most recent imprisonment and another 744,000 charges within 3 years of release.

Older study, Parole & Probation but invaluable info. https://www.ncjrs.gov/txtfiles/ppvsp91.txt
Keep in mind the sampling was just 45%, they originally committed 25,900 crimes, when placed early release under ‘community’ supervision for parole and probation they then committed another 74,400 new crimes. That folks adds up to 100,300 crimes, and many times more than in victims. As there are multiple people affected when a child is raped or a person murdered.
