Australia had a terrible mass shooting, instituted strong laws, and the result was more guns and no new shootings.
I think you might want to buy a device that has a "search engine." That way you wouldn't post things that aren't true
Oh boy, the myth of Australian gun control working. I have a entire wall of text with sources I can go dig up, but the gist is that Australia's violent crime rate matched the rest of the western world. But because this is Lemmy, no matter how many sources I link, none of y'all will ever change your mind.
Because y'all are close minded assholes.
Edit; Actually screw it, here you go. https://old.reddit.com/r/gunpolitics/comments/b6cgir/the_us_should_adopt_australias_gun_laws_says/ejkl8hb/
Just post about all the mass shootings they've had. I couldn't find any, but I am willing to be proven wrong

Also, literally first result on google. 6 people dead. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/2019_Darwin_shooting
Also a mass stabbing where 7 people died. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Bondi_Junction_stabbings
One mass shooting and a stabbing.
Australia has a population of about 30 million, about the same as Texas.
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_shootings_in_Texas
About 14 mass shooting in Texas in the same time.
You didn't even bother looking at the sources I linked? Fuck you, prick.
It's not worth arguing with them, they would rather be getting brought to a concentration camp, and still be talking how sensible gun laws can exist.
