"I'm not sure where you heard about the gun laws in Australia being terrible but I don't think it was correct.
There are very few gun related deaths over here.
I have never even seen a real gun, not either any of my work collegues.
If someone does get shot over here it makes national headlines.
A story you may like to read is on the link below showing the reduction by 65% of gun related deaths since the ban.

So, the laws are not bad?
They simply BAN the possession of Firearms.

Sure the gun deaths are down.
No one can shoot the crooks now.
Look at the overall crime statistics.
Guess the Aussies can carry around one of those great big Dundee Corc Skinner knives. Until they ban those too.
