Australia has held up on being the example of effective gun control. You are absolutely right. But, now everyone is starting to see how it was a terrible idea. Granted, I know your comment was 6 months ago and today we are looking at everything in hindsight. I just think there was a group of people that said that "Gun Control" is a bad idea... lone behold the totalitarian regime is now exercising the rights handed to them by the people.

Its a shame if you ask me.
