Ah I see it's time for the Americans - who have mass shootings daily - to tell us Australians that we should have access to guns and repeal our strict gun laws, since we had a tragic incident involving a man with a knife. Kindly go fuck yourselves.

I'm in a blocking mood - there's no argument worth having about this. You are wrong. We like not having guns. We don't need to rise up against the govt - we vote them out. Our kids can go to school and all they have to worry about is that their sandwiches don't get soggy.
