In 1996 Australia unloaded some of the most severe gun bans and gun confiscation programs on record. And for the guns that were not confiscated gun owners were forced to enter into license agreements and have their guns registered so the government knew what guns everyone had.
Well, they really only knew what guns the law abiding had, since none of the criminals actually followed the program. Fancy that.
Breitbart just reported some interesting developments in Australia that prove all the anti-gun lawmakers wrong. Gun control does NOT take guns out of the hands of criminals, it only disarms the law abiding, while making everyone less safe.

A disarmed population are nothing more than slaves.

I wonder who is toting the guns around? I thought banning them kept criminals from getting them too?.../s
The Left needs guns to keep guns away from the good citizen.

No reason to believe that Obama and Holder don’t like gun crime and gang violence; school shootings they absolutely crave.
LOL!
No, it’s not ironic.
Legislators knew what they were getting into when they took away the only means for law-abiding citizens to protect themselves against criminals.
You can bet that these same legislators either carry concealed or have a bodyguard paid for by the very citizens that they disarmed.
Government seems to be on the side of the criminal because they never disarmed them as they did with the non-criminal element.
Why do Aussies oil their lawns....?
Answer: To keep their guns lubricated.

Now appearing in ‘News That Won’t Be Reported in America.’
NO! It is not ironic!! It is just plain common sense!!!
Criminals by definition do not obey rules, laws or regulations.
Gun control applies ONLY to the law abiding. It discourages law abiding from owning guns and gives unfair advantage to criminals.
Exactly
The crimes against citizens argument is a straw man. It just gins up support for gun control.
The politician's real concern is their own skin.
