Your gun ownership rates are back up to the same level as before the confiscation...and your gun crime is going up as well.....after the confiscation...you too are about the same place as the United States was back in the 80s....and then gun crime went up...it wasn't until we allowed people to actually carry guns, as is their right, that the gun crime rate went down...
And this doesn't count the two recent acts of terrorism that took place in Australia with illegal guns....
Where are you getting your stats from? Gun ownership rates are nowhere near 1996 rates. You have proved no correlation between gun crime in the US and gun ownership rates. Nor in Australia. Just anecdotal evidence, which is meaningless. At the end of the day, US gun crime is a lot higher than any other Western country. That aside, none of us down here are so insecure as to even think about guns....
