    Don’t allow criminals to own guns, and they increasingly drop out of circulation. Don’t issue them unless there is good reason for them to have it and they have a clean record

    Self defence here in Australia isn’t a valid reason to own a gun

    This also allows the people who sold the guns to be arrested too.

    The fact is, if a criminal has a gun, you’re not using a gun to defend yourself. They have more experience and are more prepared.

    Here in Australia, I was actually in a near school shooting which was stopped because it was only a hand gun and because someone with martial arts experience took him down
