    Default Re: Colorado passes Gun Control Laws

    If you are still wondering why Americans who believe in gun ownership think that people are trying to take their guns, at least you can recognize that people are trying to take their guns. We hear that they arent trying to take their guns, but in Australia pump action shotguns were confiscated and you have to show a "need" to own a bolt action .22. Nobody believes gun controllers that "nobody" is coming for your guns" because people emphatically ARE coming from your guns.

    As stated earlier; The homicide rate among similar population groups between the 2 nations is very similar. It is when you consider the hyper violent ethnic cultures who drive our homicide rates, you realize that they are effectively absent from Australian society. Sounds harsh? It is, but it is true. I believe that people are equal, but cultures are certainly not.

    Reasonable people should recognize that a ban of firearms, like in Australia, will likely have the effect of reducing homicides. It may also have the effect of increasing violent crime. If our culture is progressing correctly, it is conceivable that we can keep our guns and keep violent crime and murder rates decreasing exponentially as they have been for the past 20 years.

    "If the policy of the government, upon vital questions affecting the whole people, is to be irrevocably fixed by decisions of the Supreme Court...the people will have ceased to be their own rulers, having to that extent practically resigned the government into the hands of that eminent tribunal."
