Australia has actually started to relax it's video game censorship rules, even overhauling the rating system. ^Maybe it was the banning and censoring video games that reduced gun massacres world wide. What makes you think guns is the sole reason? Because deep down we don't want to blame something we enjoy, but happy to blame things we don't enjoy right? So lets blame guns and forget the gun lovers out there.. (Note I don't think Guns or Video games is the reason for Gun massacres)
It's a large blunt object. You do the math. ^And this is the world you want to live in? where the government can fine you for buying a Club lock at the local auto shops and having it displayed because it looks like a bat? So golf clubs, Baseball/Cricket bats heck tennis rackets should be banned because they are just as deadly than a club lock. Its sporting equipment, what next, they will ban cricket balls because how deadly one of them hits you in the head could potential kill or brain damage you? Guess we just have to wait for that to actually happen than watch the government act by placing new laws on it. The rules are never consistence and unfair by the majority. 1 bad egg and we all lose.
False. You don't get to choose what I want. I decide that. I am by far not telling you what you can and cannot do.. in fact I couldn't care less if you went out tomorrow and brought yourself a rocket launcher. The problem here is that you want to tell people what they can and cant have. Its a double standard many are showing because they simply have no interests in guns, but video games wow look out, how dare they.
Absolutely fake news. http://www.sportingshooter.com.au/gun-law/when-can-you-carry-a-knife-the-loose-cannon Yeah I know, if you have a good enough reason to debate with the cops, lets hope you don't leave your box cutter in your other pants by mistake and than cop that $1000aus fine for carrying a weapon. The point with this is you cannot even carry around pocket knives like the Swisse Army Knife which are handy for camping etc. Also a great survival knife. Heck the guy who had to cut off his own arm for being stuck in a mountain would have been fined for making a deadly weapon with the way the rules are set here. |
The thing is, you cannot stop the killings without changing the culture. Australia's culture changed when we removed guns and also banned games and also banned anything that looks like a weapon or acts like a weapon. The USA is a completely different ball game. They also believe in self defence, something Australia doesn't support very well. You remove guns, you remove public power and freedom. There belief is everyone should be able to protect themselves. Something you get caught here can result in you getting sued unless you let them stab or shoot you first.
In my opinion, if Americans want to have easy access to guns than so be it, it doesn't bother me, however take those guns away, trust me, it wont be the only thing they take away after guns. It will be an avalanche of things no longer will be legal because the government has gain too much power over the public.
