        @USATODAY Do you all think that might have something to do with the Australian Gov't abandoning #Assange abroad ?

        @USATODAY Not saying I agree w/ taking my guns away, but it would be very intriguing if US adopted this program. #Truth http://usat.ly/UuahzI

        @USATODAY One problem with this logic. Australia has no borders to protect and no guns flowing in from Mexico.
