… disagreements, and hurt feelings but they don’t have anywhere near the bloodshed that we

“No, Australia does not have a lot of gun violence, especially when compared to countries like the United States. Strict gun control laws implemented in 1996 have led to a significant reduction in gun deaths and the near elimination of mass shootings.”

Go figure.

Almost like the old adage...

A wise man learns from others' mistakes
An intelligent one learns from his own
A stupid man never learns to change behaviors

Australia is intelligent as a country. The US is so incredibly stupid that we undo progress that we learned (like the original assault weapons ban).
