I’ll address what I take as directed at me. I wrote and re-wrote my post because I wanted to add something and not be ‘that guy’. From another country who just says ‘so why don’t you fix this the way everyone suggests’.
Australia has 3.5 million guns for a population of 25 million.
In Australia we have one gun per 7-8 people. Take in gun collectors and non returned guns (my uncles safe had them that the family only found when he got put into care), not to mention illegal guns (yeah we are an island and we still manage to have them). We still don’t come close to a gun per person. Not now, probably not ever.
One per 7-8 is a lot though. It is still more then enough for a massacre (+3 people dead and forget about the wounded) it’s still enough to make the news. It’s still enough to be paranoid about the government. More then enough to get your idiotic rant published. More then enough to control pigs as well as the USA does.
I can’t be the person who says just change your laws. It’s not that simple. It wasnt that simple here and we had processes in place. What I can say is question the culture. The USA is being lied to about guns by people with guns.
Yeah the Christchurch shooter was Australian we tried to disown him but he was ours. We are a country full of racism and stupid politics. We are at times a stupid backwards country with politicians as self serving as yours. We hope he was an anomaly because as a neighbor to New Zealand we suck.
We don’t have your gun culture.
