Gun Control Question

[seldear]

As I understand it, Australia has relatively strict gun control laws. I'm not sure exactly what those laws are, never having required the use of a firearm. (Any of the Aussies know?)

US Constitution's Second Amendment? Gun registration?

And where do you stand on the matter of "the right to bear arms" and why? Would love to hear from all sides of the fence and the pond.

I'm not talking about getting a gun because your neighbors are annoying and they have guns. We had the most irritating people in life living next door and I'm sure the dad owned a gun and I never thought twice about it. I'm talking about being prepared to defend yourself, your family and your property in case of armed robbery, home invasion, assault, and psychopaths like this Cho guy.

BUT without guns, there would be no need for guns.

But there's always going to be guns. Always. That's the world.

Like they say... if all guns are outlawed, only outlaws will have guns.
