For Americans tired of NRA bullying.

What's the definition of 'works?'

Maybe taking advice from Australia? Maybe asking Japan how they keep gun deaths down?

What is not working is our patchwork Swiss Cheese bullshit. What we need is to make less. What we need is for the makers and sellers to be more responsible to whom they sell to instead of stupidly thinking "no record at time of buy" means responsible forever.

Now I defy anyone reading this to show me anywhere in these words it says "ban all guns". Neither Australia or Japan have an all out ban on guns. But what they don't have is a blind worship of them.

Well.....Australia and Japan have always had pretty low crime. You can't just point to low crime societies and say 'they have gun control and low crime so it must be the gun control that's doing it.' I don't know about Japan, but Australia's murder rate went down after their gun laws in response to the Port Aurthur massacre that happened there in the 90s. However during the same time period America's murder rate dropped even more then Australia's. Both are probably more the result of an aging populace then anything else.

So you can't just point to low crime countries have always been low crime and say 'it must be the gun control' To be convincing to me you'd have to show that gun control was the actual cause of....something at least.
