I Have a Question

So if stricter gun control won't solve anything why has it worked so goddamn well in Australia?

How many mass shootings have they had since the 90's? Even one?

How many has the US had? Something like 70.

Why is strict gun control "not working" so effectively over there?

@dick - I know in the state of florida (where I live and where 49 people were murdered in a dance club) you don't have to have a license but you do have to pass a background check to buy a firearm - the state agency that does the background check denies them on the basis of many factors - but that's only for licensed gun dealers - you can buy/sell to any moron at a gun show or on craigslist.

The scum that killed the 49 people actually purchased his stuff legally and was a security guard that carried a firearm.

Everything was by the book - he even knew how to use guns (as evidenced by the body count) and had held weapons for a decade more or less.

The problem is you simply can't predict what a person is going to do in the future.
