don't you on the right ever pay attention to the facts?


Yes - of course, that's why I cite real instances of gun violence in a country with a complete ban to prove that it will still occur.

The classic example is AU.......had shooting massacres, implemented gun control laws in the mid 1980s.....

They had one horrific incident and implemented a ban - the difference in AU's case is they are in fact an island - so their illegal gun trade is more easily contained. In a vacuum they have been "successful".

Why do you keep criticizing that which you don't understand?

That's funny - something I don't understand - we are a nation of immigrants so our genetics are a reflection of the world at large. Culture - now that's entirely plausible.
