        Except it had no demonstrable impact on crime; had wide non-compliance; and there are still massacres in Australia.

        Australia didn’t have a lot of gun crime before their mass shooting. Their murder rate has stayed the same. They have 24 million people...

        We have 320 million people. Australia doesn’t border a poverty stricken, cartel ran country that could bring in illegal guns

        Australia has great border control by being an island & more hard core. Thusly it won't work in US

        Libs say we need fedl gun ban because guns can move across state lines, defying state gun laws. But they want open borders with Mexico...

        Even if you managed to disarm every law-abiding citizen in the US, criminals would still get guns smuggled in from Mexico/central/south Am

        This is America not Australia. We love our #second amendment rights. New laws will not eliminate evil. Evil murders people not guns.
