    Australia is not free of guns. So, it can't be done.

    It's not possible to get there from here. Consider Chicago.

    Which is an impossibility...... We know the good guy who stopped the shooting was legally armed and had a CCW permit. We don't know anything about the other guy. My guess is that he was not legally armed/allowed to own a gun, and this just shows the futility of gun laws.

    Other than extremely repressive countries such as North Korea where are criminals unable to get guns. There is Japan, but their society certainly puts a huge emphasis on conformity. Anyone who thinks gun control will keep guns away from criminals in the US is deluded.

    You don't understand............violent criminals always obey gun laws. They don't want to get into trouble when they are murdering innocent Americans.

    Here's the Democrat argument on "gun control":

    We have laws that say criminals can't have guns, and murder is already illegal, so we're going to take away your right to defend yourself since we are incapable of protecting you.

    Since they are incapable of protecting you, they will take away more of your rights until they can protect you.

    Eventually you will be completely safe.

    If only they have enough power.

    Then we can have that "Great Leap Forward". It'll be great.

    Sorry for your lack of comprehension. More gun sales do not indicare that a higher percentage of household have guns. The declining murder rate Correlates to a decreasing percentage of housholds owning guns.

    Posting the same missleading data repeatedly won't make your incorrect correlation any more true. This link will help you understand what is actually going on:

    The gun is the thing, the best thing, but it won't be long now before a better and more deadly weapon carried by individuals is invented.

    You can't stop progress.

    Oh I see.

    On the other hand when theres a gun ban and the murder rate dips, that's evidence that gun control works.

    Is that your argument?

    And actually bombs are very easy to make....much easier than purchasing a firearm.
