Julian,

Japan is a prime example of how to runa society.

"The country’s homicide rate is associated with a stable and prosperous society with low inequality and high levels of development. Young Japanese males now commit only a tenth of the homicides committed by their predecessors in 1955,"

If Japan had as many guns as the US I doubt that there would be any difference.

How do you explain the falling homicide rate in the US with the increase in the number of guns?

How do you explain the same result in Australia?

EmperorJulian,

OK, so ship some of the Oz Middle Eastern drug gangs to Japan, along with some ship loads of black drug-dealing gangs from US ghettos.

Add for good measure, some of those young fellows who have been re-educating Europe, Islam style. Because Japan too should 'embrace' the 'dynamism' and 'vibrancy' of multicultural diversity.

For good measure, Australia can easily afford to send a few plane loads of fools of politicians who like to strut their superior morality internationally at the public's cost. They can sort an immigration program for Japan. Long needed. We just don't want the pollies back either. They are a gift too that will keep on giving....problems, that is.

48 hours and the drugs and weapons, nice and new and cheaper than from the US, will be hitting the streets. And the Yakuza would be pulling out their hidden guns - Japan is a major supplier of firearms - to protect their territory from the imported gangs.

EJ, in my absence, I see you have been doing a good job against the pesky pair.

leoj, once more takes to waving his 'Hakenkreuz', blaming all the gun ills in America on blacks, and since Australia does not have a huge negro population to act as Leo's fall guys, he uses the non white ethnics as being the bad dudes at home. The rationale is, if you're not white, your more likely to be a criminal, than those good white folk. Leo, you are absolutely correct, well at first glance you are, blacks commit a disproportional amount of crime in the US, far in excess of that committed by good white folk. If all the socio economic factors were equal for both groups then you would have a good argument for your simplistic cold claim; "In the US, almost all gun crimes (other weapons too) are committed by blacks and most often on other blacks. Drugs and gangs are involved." But being of reasonable intelligence Leo, you know there is a lot more to it than simple skin colour.

I will have to agree with your brother in arms on this one, although he applied it to the Japanese;

"The country’s homicide rate is associated with a stable and prosperous society with low inequality and high levels of development. Young Japanese males now commit only a tenth of the homicides committed by their predecessors in 1955,"

But of course the white boy, Martin Bryant did not understand any of that stuff, when he went on his shooting rampage at Port Arthur. So we certainly need strong gun laws. Do we not?

Issy, what's this about the crazy Czech's and allowing ordinary citizens to carry arms and use them in case of a public emergency such as terrorism."
Do you advocate similar for Australia? Instead of duck hunting season we could have open season on those other two legged varmintslike, kabab shop owners.

Paul1405,

Are you having some time off from the continuing blood feud between the Greens Trotskyist and Stalinist factions?

As usual where you are devoid of argument, which is commonplace, it is back to the amateur funnyman and playing stupid by disregarding all of the previous posts.

But then you have boasted a number of times while cheering on others you imagine to be of a similar ilk, that you are here to stir.

From an earlier post since you are plagued by memory loss:

'Gun control' is an imported political scam and is the opposite of effective regulation based on risk analysis and evidence. It is useful to the US billionaires and the also very wealthy presidential hopefuls like Hilary Clinton for talking points and to ensure that the political commentators are always being deflected onto 'what about guns!' and never get to bother themselves about the entrenched social and economic problems that affect blacks, Hispanics and people on low incomes, including low paid workers, often young.

- In Australia, the NSW 'Eastern Bloc' Greens are casting about for something to protest. For years they have ridden on the backs of gays to get headlines for 'Boy' Sh**bridge, Lee Rhiannon and ors. Scrabbling for headlines picketing chocolate shop owners. Slagging police with drug dogs trying to deter drug dealers introducing kids to drugs at music concerts and other social gatherings. Such a great game exasperating police who are only trying to save young students' lives from criminal gangs trafficking drugs.

- But nothing practical being done to address the social and drug problems of 'Struggle Streets'. Exasperated ex-Labor leader Mark Latham finally challenged Labor's (and Greens') hypocrisy, saying that Labor (Greens too) has an “obsession” with the symbolism of gay marriage and should be focusing instead on the nation’s “Struggle Streets”.

So now it's not guns that kill people it's immigration. Importing Moslems causes Koran-inspired bigotry, it's true, but there's no evidence that Moslems have been especially prominent in the shooting crime scene here or in America. They're prominent in crimes involving guns in the Middle East but much of their gunplay is related to justifiable nationalist struggle against foreign intruders, especially in Palestine and in Yemen. Calling Resistors "terrorists" was common among the Hun invaders during the war.

None of this accounts for gun deaths in America or Australia, or freedom from them in Japan. The Yank NRA's outsourced metastases are the main gun threat to life and limb in Australia.
