Is The Modern Australian Police State The Result Of Excessive Gun Control?

Unlike the apathetic population of Australia, Florida Governor Ron De Santis knows how important freedom is to Western Societies.

31 years ago today a severely disabled autistic man slaughtered 35 people at Port Arthur and, in response, Australia, under the conservative leadership of "man of steel" John Howard, made massive tightening of gun control and massive reduction in private gun ownership.

Florida Governor Ron DeSantis, said of Australia, after Victoria Police assaulted peaceful protestors with rubber bullets (a weapon with a fatality rate of 3 percent):

“Look what’s going on in Australia right now. They’re enforcing, after a year-and-a-half, lockdowns by the military …….. In fact, I wonder why we would still have the same diplomatic relations when they’re doing that. Is Australia freer than communist China right now? I don’t know. The fact that is even a question tells you something has gone dramatically off the rails with some of this stuff.”

Everybody needs accountability to ensure they don’t go to far. The Australian police had no accountability, so it was natural for them to go too far.

I don't understand how the responsibility for a criminal act could be transferred into an inanimate object?

God gave us the right to defend ourselves and he didn't qualify how we can do it.

Maybe not caused it to happen, but abolishing firearms at least enabled what has resulted.

That's why it's my contention that the 2nd Amendment applies to everyone, not just Americans. We just codified it.

I think he delegates that to Joe Biden.

On a good day.

Laughably retarded.

North Korea has a police state.

Russia now has a police state.

Australia is one of freest countries in the world.

The fact Australia doesn’t let retards act 100% retard at the expense of everyone else does not make Australia a police state. No country does. Not even Sweden.

No. It is from a compliant weak population that votes for feminist marxists.

The persecution of Cardinal George Pell is not so easily dismissed. Churches are still suffering from the impact of that on recruitment of priests.

Knocking down pregnant women. Smashing a guys head into the pavement. Rough handling women over a stupid mask. The retards were the ones falling for the scam

Every government that bans self defense (and the neccessary tools to do it) essentially tells the world that it would rather have criminals or tyrants live rather than citizens, if the two were ever to get in a tussle. This shows where the allegiance of such governments lie, and thereby reveals them to be ethically and morally bankrupt.

In case there’s any doubt about this, please observe the Blue America cities in which criminals up to and including murderers are released from custody, but otherwise law-abiding citizens who violate gun control laws are treated very harshly.

Exactly. Needs to be repeated ... often.

At the time, I thought Howard was magnificent in enacting that change.

Seriously? A disarmed populace is sine qua non for tyranny, always. It doesn't mean that tyranny always immediately follows disarming the people, but tyranny is always preceded by it. There are no exceptions.
