Re: OZ gun-grab fails to "save" society...

You're wrong, the 1996 gun buy-back was NOT directed at addressing the
issue of mass-murders with guns, it was all about the fact that the
Prime Minister "hates guns" and hates the thought of the public being
in possession of arms


"..it was all about draining the suburbs of Melbourne and Sydney of
firearms."
