Dear Mr. President,
You recently hailed “Australian gun laws”.
In doing so:
*you praised a government for forcefully removing all semi-automatic firearms from its populace,
*you admired the banning and confiscation of guns.
We expect to hear that from a European leader. But not you.
You’re the leader of America:
*the world’s first free country,
*the nation that has inspired many to be free,
*that has protected the freedom of others,
*that has spread more freedom than any other.
I am an Australian and I must set the record straight.
The “success” of the 1996 Australian gun reform is a myth. The only thing achieved was to take away the guns of the law-abiding, leaving only the criminals armed. Is this what you wish for America?

Obama is no leader of America ... he’s the destroyer of America!
The leftist crimminal defense lawyers who populate the democrat base defend the crimminals and blame the victims. That is who the left are.
Yeah, I posted something about this the other day and kinda got a few “where’s the hard data” responses. But, I suppose it’s kinda like the increase in crimes in England that had firearms involved.
Leftists like to pretend that the same number (quantity) and density of guns exist in Anglosphere nations...it’s just the laws that differ.
Obviously, this is the opposite of reality.
The US has hundreds of millions of guns. Hundreds of millions. Even if all guns were magically outlawed overnight there is simply no way in theory or in practice that the vast majority of these guns could be located, confiscated, etc. with or without federal and state records.
Therefore, any individual, politician or group claiming that outlawing guns will remove guns from society is either knowingly lying or is so out of touch with reality as to be mentally ill. Note that these two conditions are not mutually exclusive.
Yes, because that would create more problems that the federal government would have to "solve" with even more draconian laws.
Amazing I’m hearing Aussies say we buried our in the Lake. Can come back and have alligators eat any who go there. I’m rooting for obama to go there.
You Australians make me laugh.
Use eh kniyuff....
YES, he does.
Come on down obama. Our crocks like to eat too!
Line Drawn ....
mooch has more balls than obama ... watch there will be no obama. Maybe a mooch but no obama.
Bttt.
What Americans who want to compare Australia with the US fail to appreciate is that we are an island which gives us a fair deal of control about what we let get imported from overseas. It is difficult but not impossible for crims to get guns - the only ones that seem to bother are bikies. Even for them it is tough so much so in fact that there have been a few break ins on country properties recently to try to obtain rifles etc which farmers can legally own.
Even if the government got it’s hands on every gun in the USA both illegal and legal the bad guys would have thousands of them from over the border within a week!
yes, he only wants the criminals to have guns...
when crime naturally happens, the defenseless populace will then beg for more protection... meaning bigger govt and higher taxes
Nah, he's no leader and he's not important enough to destroy anything.
Vito Corleone had the right words: He's a pimp.
