I mean, really, you had 311 murders in the entire country in 1996, that's a slow week in Chicago. Moreso, does it matter to you at all that the majority of your mass shootings in the 100 years before Port Arthur were conducted by your own government against your people? Now those are the people to whom you gave up your weapons? 

Here in America we will not permit that to happen.

I doubt anyone is still alive from the era you are discussing. 

So you are saying that government killed people prior to gun control but don't since?

I vote in the government. Why would you vote for people to kill you?

Gun control worked. Now maybe you are happy for these incidents to keep happening so you can keep guns thats ok but be honest.

Gun control, like most government solutions, solved a non-existent problem by taking away people's rights. Murders in Aussieland were almost nonexistent before your draconian law, they are still almost nonexistent today. Every scholarly paper on your society agrees that your buy back and confiscation had no provable impact on your already low crime rate. You gave up your rights for nothing.
