Israel has tremendous success with balancing the right to bear arms with gun control. Police and doctor permission required, mental health checks that must be renewed, reason for gun must be demonstrated, mandatory training, etc. Result is miniscule gun violence.

I'm boggled that in the US we don't require any training. (We claim to do background checks, but aren't rigorous.) We don't let people drive without passing a test; why are weapons different?

I want option for self-defense b/c police can't arrive in time to prevent a rape or murder, but that's a far cry from free-for-all. And I should have to demonstrate competence & responsibility.

While I do feel Australias movement in completely wiping guns away except for maybe some farmers it's easier for Au as an island whereas America has land borders where it can be much easier to smuggle them through and with a much much larger population

Australia had a shocking mass shooting and we changed our gun laws and it has never happened again, and our media never mentions the perpetrators name. Copy us, it works.

It's really simple...in our Democracy, vote on whether automatic weapons should be allowed or not.. whichever side gets 51% wins. Uh-oh, what's that you say? You don't believe in Democracy?

How long until your schools have snipers on the roof & machine gun toting hall monitors? Desert Eagles under a teachers desk become standard issue? Heck some probably think those are great ideas! A great country literally drowning in a self made sea of blood.
