Armed Crims
Your gun laws
are a mistake: National Rifle Association to Australia
In an
article entitled Australia: There Will
be Blood, the National Rifle Association in the US has launched an
attack on Australia's gun laws in the latest edition of its most militant gun
rights publication, America's First
Freedom.
The article claims there is a "growing
consensus" in Australia that the gun buyback and ban on semi-automatic weapons introduced after
the Port Arthur massacre in 1996 had failed to make the nation safer.
Australia:
There Will Be Blood
There have been many competing reports as to
the immediate aftermath of the gun confiscation: While NRA reported a
69-percent increase in armed robberies, anti-gun sources glibly hailed the
supposed reduction in crime that had resulted. Facts tend to become clearer in
hindsight, and there is now a growing consensus among impartial researchers
that disarming Australia’s citizens did not make them safer.
A 2013 Breitbart feature found gun violence
becoming a huge concern. “There is no single source of gun violence,” explained
New South Wales police commissioner Andrew Scipione. “Guns have fallen into the
hands of organized crime, outlaw motorcycle gangs, mid-level crime groups and
petty thieves, and the lines are often blurred.” Unsurprisingly, the criminals
are still armed.
This is the gun-control regime that our
president applauds for its decisive resolve. It robbed Australians of their
right to self-defense and empowered criminals, all without delivering the
promised reduction in violent crime. Australia’s gun confiscation is indeed a
lesson to America: It is a sign of what is to come if we hold our rights
lightly.
