You're twice as likely to have you're home invaded as I am in the United States, and criminal burglars don't care about gun laws obviously. I can honestly see how you would become so obsessed with the thought of having the ability to defend yourself and your family living under such circumstances.

Fortunately for us, it's a non issue.
Why do you cite known biased websites that print bogus information.  Nobody but gun nutters believes that nonsense.  The robbery rate in Australia is about 56.0 victims per 100,000 persons and in America it is 119 victims per 100,000 persons.  These are both from Government sources (2010)

Why do you cite known biased websites that print bogus information.  

First, I was addressing BURGLARY not ROBBERY.

Second, you're comparing apples to oranges because those stats haven't been adjusted for differences in definition and reporting and you're just picking out individual years to fit your agenda instead of averaging.

If those people had been allowed to carry firearms, the stabbings would've ended much more quickly.

Gun control makes people unsafe. The end.

Then the terrorists will adapt by using a IED, or running a large truck at high speed through a crowd of shoppers in a open air market....

So if all guns are banned, terrorists will never, EVER "adapt by using an IED or running a large truck".

28 is still less than the 32 that Korean guy killed and 20 wounded at Virginia tech
and he was one guy with a .22, not a mob
guns ftw


Update:

33 killed and 130 injured.

Looks like knifes need to be banned.

Because gun nutters think if you can kill someone with a knife, then guns are no different.  They seem unable to tell the difference between the killing efficiency and potential of a gun compared to that of a knife .

Homicides in USA 2011 - 14612
Homicides in Australia 2011 - 244

This means in one week in America, more people are murdered than in a whole year in Australia.

I always liked this story on our gun control






You call that a story? It's a comedy sketch for a well-known liberal late night talk show called The Daily Show with Jon Stewart.

I can't believe you posted that as if it was a serious news story. Bye.

His theory that Americans live in fear can only be based on his never having stepped foot in the country.

14 times the population 60 times the homicide rate.  Logic has nothing to do with it.  Cold hard facts
