Australia's 1996 gun law reforms: faster falls in firearm deaths, firearm suicides, and a decade without mass shootings

Something to point at, when a stupid person tells you gun reform won’t work, or wouldn’t have helped.

@TheAkrion @pandoomia @rich4718 @unusual_whales https://t.co/YdOqc1CVl2 Can we find a common ground on the fact that anything bigger than pistol/revolver (like rifles, shotguns, etc.) is without a doubt unnecessary? Or else we could argue for hours, which

@allyyarid it isn’t a one time fix all. but as proposed by many, increasing background checks, changing the legal age to own a firearm, higher gun prices, and so much more! https://t.co/ntFNgSGLaX https://t.co/9CdDTCW8qS https://t.co/41IOL89QoD

@Uk4Lif @kyboss360 @RowlandRIVALS https://t.co/uGgFjRVgBp In 1996, Australia had a mass shooting where 35 people died. After enacting the changes listed in this paper, they haven’t had any since then. Any change we make will come at an expense to gun owner

Hey, @kenpaxtonAG - Are you really that uninformed or just not cognitively equipped for the job? Do a little research or leave your job and let someone who operates on facts and not personal assumptions do the job. Children are being murdered! https://

@hasanthehun Uh oh, better let the Australians know https://t.co/gIM5EOJgCM

@razlol @PederFroyland I did read my own source, and you can too. It clearly says "mass shooting" is in which 5 or more homicides are committed by one or two perpetrators. https://t.co/SdVVyx8N8b https://t.co/uKYSKqWxy0

@razlol @PederFroyland Wow, look at that it's almost like my definition is also correct. I linked the website just like you did. https://t.co/SdVVyx8N8b https://t.co/xQLXl0bhYJ

@razlol @PederFroyland https://t.co/flrgj35Yvw https://t.co/SdVVyx8N8b Both scenarios say "Mass shootings have no consensus on a definition." In the Australian survey it says that a mass shooting was an event where 5 or more were killed not just injure

@Jackson6Forsyth @art_interesting @NoGunsInCanada @Alberta8X57 @ResistanceCats No, not that at all. A red line on a graph is not a "plain stat". The plain stats say that the mass shootings stopped. A detailed analysis says the buyback and NFA worked. ht

Here in the US, we are going exactly in the opposite direction - so-called constitutional carry.
