This attack reminds me so much of our Port Arthur Massacre. That was the Massacre changed our gun laws forever. https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Port_Arthur_massacre_(Australia) …

I dislike John Howard immensely but the gun control laws he implemented were right

THE ONE THING HOWARD DID RIGHT ...that then the ABBOTT & TURNBULL Gov't watered down slightly

We are still in a better position than America right now. Yes there are guns out there but in general, we are safe at school, concerts, work

I want someone smarter than me to explain why anyone not in the military needs a machine gun? Are you storming Normandy?

Australia didn't have the 2nd amendment

even if we didn't the federal government is constitutionally obligated to pay fair value for confiscated property. Think about that...

No it was a voluntary gun amnesty there was no compensation

YES ! there was compensation for the guns in Australia . My father received thousands for his guns.

My apologies point is it worked! No mass shootings and gun crime low

Guns aren’t allowed in casinos either. But that rule wasn’t followed. What makes you think people won’t still get them from the black market

Black market? You currently sell them in supermarkets. Make it harder. Much harder. Do something.

My point is if someone intends on doing something atrocious theyll do it No law or restriction will matter if someone has their mind made up

So you think laws are pointless and ineffective?

Pointless? absolutely not. Ineffective for someone who has decided to commit a crime? Absolutely.
