Liberals love easy answers. They think they can make people stop doing bad things by asking them to stop.
There are 200 million guns in the U.S. Liberals think that banning new gun sales or asking law-abiding citizens to turn guns in will somehow stop gun violence.
The audacity of arrogance–Hope and Change won’t make those 200 million guns disappear. Case in Point:

Gun Law Update
Here’s a
thought to warm some of your hearts….. From: Ed
Chenel , A police officer in Australia
Hi
Yanks, I thought you all would like to see the real figures from
Down Under.
It has
now been 12 months since gun owners in Australia were
forced by a new law to surrender 640,381 personal firearms to
be destroyed by our own
government — a program costing Australian taxpayers more
than $500 million dollars.
The
first year results are now in: Australia-wide, homicides are up 6.2
percent; Australia-wide, assaults are up 9.6
percent; Australia-wide,
armed robberies are up 44
percent (yes, 44 percent)!
In the
state of Victoria alone, homicides with firearms are now up 300
percent. (Note
that while the law-abiding citizens turned them in, the criminals did not and criminals still
possess their guns!)
While
figures over the previous 25 years showed a steady decrease in armed
robbery with firearms, this
has changed drastically upward in the past 12 months, since the
criminals now are guaranteed that their prey is
unarmed.
There
has also been a dramatic
increase in break-ins and assaults of the elderly, while the
resident is at home.
Australian
politicians are at a loss to explain how public safety has
decreased, after such monumental effort and expense was expended in
’successfully ridding Australian society of guns.’ You won’t
see this on the American evening news or hear your governor or
members of the State Assembly disseminating this
information.
The
Australian experience speaks for itself. Guns in the hands of
honest citizens save lives and property and, yes, gun-control laws
affect only the law-abiding citizens.
Take
note Americans, before it’s too late!
Will you
be one of the sheeple to turn yours in? WHY? You will need
it.
