If it happened in a capital city in Australia, I’d agree.

In somewhere like Broken Hill, there’d still be a lot of people around who owned guns.

That’s heartening. On an unrelated note, as a longsuffering BHP shareholder, I have to say this long ago atrocity is probably the only time I’ve heard the place mentioned in anything other than the business pages. Odds are the latest attack occurred at Bondi precisely because the locals were unlikely to be armed.

The same can be said of any big city in the U.S. compared to rural areas.
