It has now been 12 months since gun owners in Australia were forced By new law to surrender 640,381 personal firearms to be destroyed by Their own government, a program costing Australia taxpayers more Than $500 million dollars. The first year results are now in:
List of 7 items:
Australia-wide, homicides are up 3.2 percent Australia-wide,
Assaults are up 8.6 percent Australia-wide, armed robberies are up 44 percent (yes, 44 percent)! In the state of Victoria alone, homicides with firearms are now up 300 percent.
Note that while the law-abiding citizens turned them in, the Criminals did not, and criminals still possess their guns!
While figures over the previous 25 years showed a steady decrease in Armed robbery with firearms, this has changed drastically upward in The past 12 months, since criminals now are guaranteed that their prey Is unarmed.
There has also been a dramatic increase in break-ins and assaults of The ELDERLY. Australian politicians are at a loss to explain how Public safety has decreased, after such monumental effort and expense Was expended in successfully ridding Australian society of guns The Australian experience and the other historical facts above prove it.
You won't see this data on the US evening news, or hear politicians Disseminating this information.
Guns in the hands of honest citizens save lives and property and, yes, Gun-control laws adversely affect only the law-abiding citizens.
Take note my fellow Americans, before it's too late!
The next time someone talks in favor of gun control, please remind them of this history lesson.
With guns, we are 'citizens'.
Without them, we are 'subjects'.
During WWII the Japanese decided not to invade America because they Knew most Americans were ARMED!

Re: Disastrous Results of Gun Control
The idea needs to be spread among the subjects.The antis need to shun the hypocracy and admit the fact that legal and well regulated gun ownership helps govt. to curb the crime rate.

Great article - the underlying theme rephrasing - this was the genius of US forefathers who knew if you take guns away from the people, the government could do get away with anything with minimal worries or concern of revolts from the citizens.
One of the few jews who survived second world war were Bielski brothers on border of Poland and Russia who fought as partisans against the Germans. The movie Defiance was based on them.
