NRA's latest dummy spit at Australian gun laws - US

Australian guns being destroyed in the Howard gun buy back

In the upside down world of the US National Rifle Association, giving nutters access to guns is just fine and dandy. See it's the nutters that are guilty, not the guns.

Mr LaPierre described the Oregon killer as "a copy-cat loser" who "asked his victims if they were Christians, then killed them". 

The killer's access to guns was not the problem, he argued. 

"The killer had one thing in common with the last killer and the ones before him: He admired other mass-murderers and craved public attention," Mr LaPierre wrote. nine news

Such an argument is completely nonsensical. Should we therefore give drunk drivers access to innocent cars? When they kill someone from driving drunk, do we just say "Oh well, the car was innocent"? Does that therefore mean that we should let drunk drivers drive? Of course not.

Same thing for guns. Should we give fuckwit loony's access to innocent guns? When they kill someone from nutbag shooting, do we just say "Oh well, the gun was innocent"? Does that therefore mean that we should let fuckwit loony's fire automatic and semi-automatic guns? Of course not.

The NRA as usual is talking out of it's collective ass. The facts are that 100 people die a day from guns in the US. A Paris attack every day. No amount of demented and twisted logic will change that. All terrorists need to do is open a few gun shops and let the population do the rest FFS.

Australians are very proud of the success of our gun laws. It does get quite annoying to see all the time the NRA in the US kicking us over them. Especially when it's mixed up with misinformation and lies. Australia doesn't have a "gun free society" as the NRA accuses us of in the article, any more than we have a car free society. We just don't let the nutters shoot them.
