But, can you imagine if Hillary! had become President, this would be exactly the kind of confiscation she would consider, and she has spoken out in favor of Australian type gun confiscation in the past.
Stand up for the 2nd Amendment, President Trump!
This Ping List is for all things pertaining to the 2nd Amendment.
FReepmail me if you want to be added to or deleted from the list.
More 2nd Amendment related articles on FR's Bang List.
I am the NRA!
Dear Australia.
You gave up your rights to the State.
So FOAD.
What does the NRA have to do with it?
Mind your own sinking countries business Australia.
Australia should look at the 2nd Amendment and go f*** itself.
Look at the template of OUR CONSTITUTION and shut the F**K UP!..................>B^[
Total ignorant crap.
He could have used a car or truck and gotten similar results.
Australian type gun confiscation here in the United States would be "counter-productive."
.
Where was all the outcry for panel truck control after the incident in France????
Of course to liberals here, the NRA is EVIL!
Australia confiscated guns and made it illegal to own them in most cases.
Their crime rate went up.
We will never tolerate a gun confiscation scheme.
Bureaucrats are the same worldwide.
They’re a sub-specie of human homo sapiens.
The “gun lobby” in the USA is every American.
Yup. Completely stupid liberal foreigner. I’ll stick this retard in Compton or Chicago and let’s see how she defends herself with what? Harsh language? A peace sign?
What “gun law” would prevent a shooting such as at Las Vegas???
There is a huge difference between Australia (AUS) & USA.
For openers SIZE MATTERS.
There were may be 1 million guns in private hands in AUS.
USA has over 300 million guns in private hands.
On top of that, Australia has no illegals and drug smugglers walking across the borders. Australia is surrounded by hundreds of miles of deep ocean all around.
AUS illegal population is less than 0.1%. In USA it is 10% which is 100 times more.
The Australian minister is pro low level terrorism committed by the predators in his population.
As many have already pointed out, the USofA is, for better or worse, awash with legal and illegal weapons of all types. To 'cure' this abundance would require actions reminiscent of the worst of the Soviet Union and Nazi Germany police states. Is this what WE want, no but that does not stop the LEFT from pushing a cure that I regard as worse than the apparent disease!
I was thinking about this this morning because a friend on Facebook shared an article about Australia and no mass shootings since Port Arthur. One thing that occurred to me is that despite having laws just as, or in some cases, stricter than Australia, countries in Europe have experienced mass shootings or killings.
Islamists and other crazy people have no use for the gun control laws there to be sure, but what might be also at work here is that Islamists are not likely to strike Australia with a mass shooting/killing as Europe and the United States are the more closer and convenient targets than Australia would be. They would still find ways to circumvent Australian laws if they wished to launch attacks like in Belgium or Paris in that country if they wished to do so.
