Australia Warns America: Don’t Let Them Take Your Guns!

Government officials and citizens in Australia speak out to warn America “Don’t Let Them Take Your Guns!” According to reports when the Gun Ban went into effect in Australia the crime rate spiraled out of control. The police officers are overwhelmed and are unable to protect the citizens due to so much crime.

When the forced gun ban (buy back program) went into effect law abiding citizens had to turn in their semi automatic firearms, pump action rifles, and shotguns or face going to jail. Six hundred forty thousand conventional firearms were taken out of the hands of law abiding citizens, confiscated and destroyed. Law abiding citizens followed the law and turned in their weapons. Citizens were promised safety in return for turning in their guns. Does any of this sound familiar, like UN Gun Treaty perhaps?

Since the gun ban in Australia, armed robberies are up 69%, assaults with guns up 28%, gun murders increased 19%, and home invasions jumped 21%. More proof that not only does gun control not work, it makes it safer for the criminals at large. In their words

“The cost of lost liberty can be measured in the loss of life”

Andy Dunn from the South Australian Police Association states “The bad guys are happy to break into somebody’s house. They are not frightened to break into somebody’s house while their at home.” He also states “It is very bad right now. It has never been worse.” The police can’t protect the civilians now, because they are undermanned and their morale has never been lower according to reports.

Wake up America! To those Anti-gun activists, you need to realize this is going to affect you also. Wake up before it is too late. Will the United States listen to the warning Australia is sending us? Will it make a difference? I truly hope so. I would like to thank the Australians for taking the time to warn us about the effects of gun-control in their country. Although many of us know what affect gun control has on our nation, many do not and have been fooled by the smooth talking politicians. Others seem to be in the mind set that it doesn’t affect them. Without our right to bear arms, our right to protect ourselves, our family, and our home will be gone. Thus allowing the Constitution to be destroyed by politicians for the sake of their agenda.

    This is the only thing keeping the drug lords, the Russian and U.N. Troops and the Communist/Liberals, i.e. Obama and his people from attacking the American People right now…!!! That’s why DHS, TSA and all other Fed Agencies are purchasing billions of round of JHP Ammo. DHS has 4 JPH for American Citizen NOW…the October Surprize is just around the corner people…!!! Wake-up and smell the Communist before it’s to LATE…!!! God help us all!

    I have lived around guns my entire life. The people who live around me and have guns are not a threat to anyone. We are currently learning how to defend ourselves if our homes are threatened. Now…this is new. The idea of being threatened is new to me.

    For each “registered gun you own, create a Word Doc “Bill of Sale” such as you would if you actually sold a gun. Make room for signatures but since it’s a doc, don’t sign it. I Jim Jims On Date_________ Sold to Jim Smith one Luger 9mm, Serial No________ He is responsible for registering this gun per the laws in the state he resides in.
    This might help on a later date if needed. Too bad you lost the copy that both of you signed, or create a signed copy for your records..

    I love it when I get real live facts like this to forward to all my friends and relatives. These statistics can be used in all my future post. Thank you so much! Hillary Clinton is at the core of the gun banning and is working feverishly on the UN to take away our second amendment.

  • Elsja

    Nice to see comments with conflicting viewpoints are beig deleted. Journalism at ts finest.

  • Rocketman

    Know what might be a good idea? Send a letter to the editor in your local newspaper using these statistics. If the newspaper sees fit to print it you have automatically gained dozens if not hundreds of new supporters for the second amendment and made it a lot more difficult for the socialists to gain traction from any random shooting.

    The same thing happened in Germany when Hitler took over, the liberty of the people was gone! Hitler took down Germany in 12 years and then started on the other European countries. Hitler didn’t expect the U.S.A to invade France and stop Hitler. He took down Germany with debt, exclusive orders, appointed his people, took the guns and every thing the German people owned. He raped the country. Castro did the same thing to Cuba! GOD BLESS OUR COUNTRY AND OUR MILITARY. IRAQ IS SIDING WITH IRAN.

  • ltbl123

    Does Austrailia have the opportunity to recind their short sighted action and restore gun ownership to its citizens? Or do the people and their government believe over time the police will be able to control the criminals and everyone will be unarmed? Small consolation to the countless law-abiding citizens that must be assaulted and murdered with impunity because the police force is playing catch up. I prefer armed citizens to armed government the citizens are less confused about the governments role and the criminal is caught in the cross fire.

      How about we “Arm the People” and “Disarm the Governments”? I bet we would have a lot more civility in our government.

    • Lorri Anderson

      I gladly trust the law abiding gun owner, I feel comfortable with them by my side, in front of me, or at my back. I turn around (not watching what they are doing) because I have no need to fear them. I know if I am in need, the law abiding armed citizen will help, just as I would, unlike our politicians that are trying to strip away our rights.

      I would never turn my back to the politicians or their cronies because they would be the ones to shoot me in the back. ” I say, ARM all law abiding citizens” this would not only make the crime rate go down to almost non-existant, our prisons would also be less populated (helping to reduce our government spending) and the police officers would be much appreciative for the help. (Those officers that are good, and do their job well).

    We cannot blame obama on this.Brady and a whole lot of folks started this anti-gun crap long before obama.But,lets vote the rat out come november and Mrs. clinton as well.And lets get out of the UN and boot it out of the USA.

  • ADRoberts

    And why don’t they vote the idiots out of office and change the law. Why don’t they start to lobby the politicians in MASS and make them understand that this won’t be tolerated.
    Probably the same reason as here. Most are sheeple. And the media is controled by the Globalists who WANT the people disarmed.
    Do think there is any chance, now, that Australia will have a revolution. Maybe the police and militry will lead it.

      You so very right! I might add, that those that would control our media, are as much guilty of treasonous acts against our constitution, as the politicians that are their puppets. They have to be sought out and hung for their crimes as traitors as well!

  • Tailgunner

    Republicans and democrats want it, gun control, then they will take our rights away, which they have already done, make us pay more taxes, in which we are already, then they will strip us from head to toe, and put the numerial system in our blood, to take control of us, and its not only the whitehouse its the very rich doing this to us, they have to take control of us soon, we will be in jeapordy all of us, so we better watch our backs, the government is not watching out for us its the very wealthy want to get rid of us all, so they can start a new breed of people, just like hitler wanted to do, get rid of the jews he thought, well our government is doing just that, get rid of big government and the rest, it will fall into place, but be careful because big brother is watching you.

    • http://profile.yahoo.com/OC2HNCB7QOZTKUNYDBFYE4QGUY Phillip in TX

      Gun Control is VERY IMPORTANT. After all, what good is it to have a gun if you cannot hit your target? B R A S S – Breath, Relax, Aim, Sight, Squeeze.

    Everyone should be able to reason. Disarm a nations citizens and then the dictator shall rule. Ohblaber mouth could well be the antichrist. He certainly has all the signs of such evil. Every action he’s taken has been anti American. Awaken people before it’s too late!

  • Disgusted Patriot

    Australians had a chance to vote for a Bill of Rights, and they rejected it. When they just surrendered their weapons they got what they deserved. I will never quietly surrender my arms, fedzilla can kiss my backside!

  • har82

    Hmm, doesn’t say whether or not they repealed those gun laws in Australia or not lol. I bet money they haven’t. Once instituted it would be nearly impossible to make the law makers resend the laws. Unless of course their lives were on the line for it lol.

    • Jordan

      “Once instituted it would be nearly impossible to make the law makers rescind the laws.”

      That, and the laws were and are in fact massively popular here in Australia, which lacks both a second amendment *and* a populace that has ever desired to own semi-automatic firearms in any significant numbers.

      Oh, and violent offences with a firearm are significantly down in this country since the change was made (16 years ago), contrary to the stats presented of the post.

      The ONLY ,”permit”, we need to own, and bear arms is the second amendment, all the rest is only a money making schemes!
      This means that we have the right to own and bear ANY ARMS, machine guns, AK-47s, M-14s, M-16s, any pistol or revolver, Any cannon, or rockets, Bearing arms is not limited to anything, the Constitution does not put any limitations, at all on this!

  • David

    This has to be the stupidest load of garbage I’ve ever read in my life. I’m a South Australian police officer and I can assure you that your facts are wrong. There is no ‘gun ban’. Semi-automatic rifles were placed on strict control after the Port Arthur massacre in 1996. Other firearms, including semi-automatic pistols are still allowed however in general, the laws are stricter with regards to background checks, control and reasons for owning them. Farmers for example, are exempt from certain restrictions for pest control reasons (kangaroos, rabbits, emus and other crop damaging wildlife). As the law stands now, a licenced gun owner can legally purchase a military style semi-automatic hand gun with a magazine capacity of 10 rounds and an unlimited supply of ammunition. Children as young as 12 (under 12 in the state of WA and the NT) can use these weapons under adult supervision.

    Crime rates are no worse than they ever have been and the Port Arthur massacre is only one of two massacres we’ve ever had in modern times.

    Before posting an article favouring your argument, you should check your facts (and your incorrect spelling and grammar). You’ve basically just made a complete fool of yourself with incorrect information. Before you all get on your high horse about gun control, I should point out that I’m not arguing in favour for or against – I really couldn’t care less. I’m pointing out that your facts are wrong and the entire argument is complete rubbish because that is definitely not how it is here.

    Pathetic.

    • har82

      Well david, I kept up on crime in your country when all this happened. And yes, there was ,, a total ban on firearms, and yes , the crime rate did skyrocket as well.. Turn them in or go to jail just like it states.
      Perhaps you are one of the socialists who lives down under. No problem , we have plenty of liars in the media and politics here too lol.

    • Commie Hunter

      Really Dave? A South Australian Police Officer? Ummm, secretly working for Sara Brady & HCI? Maybe a Lautenberg or Schumer supporter eh? A Hillary Clinton bot? In the US, cops are allowed to LIE to the citizens to accomplish whatever it is that they wish to accomplish, so I’m guessing it’s the same way in Australia. Nice try…. This isn’t the first article that’s been written on your crime riddled country since your gun ban, or Englands for that matter. Facts are facts. Most likely you’re some government mouthpiece that’s trying to save your countries tourist trade, now that people are afraid to vacation there with all your criminals running wild.
      FYI – Before you chastise the author for her spelling, you might want to check your own, as well as learn how to punctuate a sentence. Copied & pasted from your blather so don’t try editing it now ha ha—> favouring, licenced – As far as your punctuation & run on sentences, well lets just say your teachers are collectively rolling over in their graves & wishing you’d spent more time in class paying attention, instead of daydreaming of the day you would become an illiterate government wanker.

  • EDH

    Please learn the difference between “their” and “they’re” if you want educated people to actually attempt to value anything you say.

    This article is such a joke. You make it sound as if Australia is riddled with crime and violence and that we all live here with fences around our property to protect us like they do in South Africa. I can assure you that is not the case.

    You actually think a video of a couple who experienced a home invasion proves that crime is through the roof here? Get a grip. That stuff happens in EVERY country EVERY day and I can tell you one thing- the Australian sentiment is NOT to warn Americans about anti-gun laws. The constant mass shootings and massacres in America have made the US a laughing stock to so many Australians. America is being ridiculed, not warned.

    This “ban” you are reporting on came about in the mid-90s. Don’t post about it now and act like it’s new information and that because some video had 5 or so pro-gun individuals interviewed about the ban we are all here sending out warnings to the US. It’s just completely not true.

    • Commie Hunter

      Sooo…EDH, what are you saying? Are you saying that Andy Dunn of The South Australian Policemans Association doesn’t know what he’s talking about? I’m sure you would know a lot more than him..NOT! You sound a lot like David (the South Australian cop) that’s trying to refute the crime rates in Oz, in order to try & save your countries tourist trade. Sorry pal, but tourists worldwide are aware of Ozs crime rate since your well meaning socialist government took away your citizens rights to protect themselves with the gun ban, & now no amount of lying or cajoling is going to convince us any different.
      FYI- For each one of you that claim the Aus. gun ban was a good thing, there are several thousand posts from your citizens that say different. Add to that the fact that you just can’t lie about the crime statistics in your country (it’s worldwide knowledge you know) & your opinion just stinks of another government mouthpiece flapping his gums, & telling lies to furthur your socialist agenda.
