This still brings me back to Australia. They virtually banned guns and
their homicide rate, that was already declining, continued to decline
at the same rate. It is virtually a straight line when averaged out.

Why do you keep that old link? It's laughable.


It is from the Aussie government. Are you saying they lie?

That chart is old, and could be tracking somebody's cholesterol level.
It's a joke, saying absolutely nothing.

And what's this crazy talk about guns being "virtually banned?"
Never happened. Aussie gun ownership is about the same as before your
so-called "ban."


Cite that.


I'm not Loogy, and you can google. I can guarantee you that getting
that through google will be as easy and definitive as it gets.
That kind of government statistical data is now easy to find.
Unlike your "big bad ADA shut downs successful restaurant" story.
I googled for that, didn't see anything, but didn't give it more than a
few minutes.


So we can stop having to hear about the Australian miracle now. Thanks


Never heard me mention it. In fact, I see mostly gun nuts posting about
it to deny it. Like you do.
All I can ken is the Aussie laws stopped mass murder by firearms.
Australia can't be compared to the U.S. anyway.
Different culture. No 2nd Amendment Holy Book there, no NRA there, and
many fewer gun worshipers.


From where comes your graph? And what makes you think the passage of a law stopped mass murder by
firearms - that there haven't been any since passage of the law? Can you not see any fallacy in that
argument?
