One of the perpetrators had 6 registered firearms. A frankly ridiculous amount for one person to have. Further proof that access to deadly weapons is… oh, I don’t know, maybe just possibly a bad thing that should be tightly regulated.

But that’s impossible! Guns are illegal in Australia! Everybody knows, once you ban all the guns, that immediately and permanently stops all gun violence from happening, ever!

Imagine how bad it would have been if they had automatic weapons.

To be fair to shooters, if you’re a farmer or game shooter you’ll need different firearms. It’s a bit like owning six different sized spanners. The number of guns isn’t the issue, it’s the use.

Father was a member of a gun club and a license owner for 10 years. What’s interesting is that his son was under investigation by ASIO in 2019 for a possible connection to ISIS.

Have you tried actually addressing your issues instead of just getting angry about them?

How many mass shootings in Australia in the past decade can you look up?
How many in the US have happened in the past month? Or better yet, the past week?

Are you paid by the NRA or are you just being a dumbarse cockhead NRA schill for free?

They’re not wrong, though. Also fuck the NRA.

Coincidentally, they are wrong (the guns were legally owned), but it doesn’t even matter. They’re coming into a grieving community to sarcastically troll about US gun legislation using some ridiculous strawman argument.
So they can get fucked.

Mate, we’ve had less mass shootings in 25 years than the USA has had in November alone this year, are you just cooked in the head or what?
