National Rifle Association criticises Australia's gun laws [View all]
The number of mass shootings in Australia since banning Semi automatic weapons 19 years ago?
ZERO.
"Supporters of gun control often cite Australia's laws as evidence that government restrictions on gun ownership can save lives; those opposing gun restrictions raise the laws as an example of Orwellian big-government over-reach.
As evidence of the consensus that Australia's gun laws have failed, the NRA cites a single article published by the Sydney Morning Herald in 2005.
