I disagree as there is no need to beat y=up on your favorite foe and Mud and I rarely agree anyway. LOL
Australia did something.
Dear America. Gun Control Works. Please, Please Do It. Love, Australia.
Dear America: Gun Control Works. Please, Please Do It. Love, Australia.
"The current Australian gun laws were passed after 35 were killed and 23 wounded in a 1996 mass shooting in Port Arthur, Tasmania. The shooter was able to buy his assault rifle, even though later he was later determined by authorities to have an IQ of 11. There hasn't been a mass shooting in Australia since then."

"In 1991, Warren E. Burger, the conservative chief justice of the Supreme Court, was interviewed on the MacNeil/Lehrer NewsHour about the meaning of the Second Amendment's "right to keep and bear arms." Burger answered that the Second Amendment "has been the subject of one of the greatest pieces of fraud--I repeat the word 'fraud'--on the American public by special interest groups that I have ever seen in my lifetime." In a speech in 1992, Burger declared that "the Second Amendment doesn't guarantee the right to have firearms at all. "In his view, the purpose of the Second Amendment was "to ensure that the 'state armies'--'the militia'--would be maintained for the defense of the state."

You are not going to win any argument about guns etc with facts and reason for beliefs are not based on facts and reason they are based on emotion.
Guns make Americans look like crack users.

This guy annoys the piss out of me.
After my first brain surgery, I complained to the psychiatrist that I felt I was suffering from a cognitive deficit, so they assigned me to the local University at the psychology department every weekend, for four weekends, for extensive testing. (None of that silly internet ego stroking IQ testing, the real deal stuff.) It came out after my intelligence testing, that it was on the bell curve some where on different tests between 95 to 98 percentile depending on the test. So they told me, if I was suffering, I still had nothing to complain about. It comforted me little. IOW, finding out one can run faster than everyone else is little comfort if you knew you had once been able to fly.
Folks that measure high on these tests generally can recognize others that are brilliant, and this cat IS brilliant, I've watched several of his videos, so what bothers me, is he should know that presentation to those who aren't as brilliant, for them, image is everything. (Though for us, it is generally nothing.) If he wants to make videos and be taken seriously, he needs to clean himself up and wear some decent threads.
And odds are, 10 to 1, he's probably too smart to even own a gun as he already knows that Google and the NSA already know 95% of everyone who own them based on ammo purchases. If he is publishing info like this, I doubt he wants them knocking on his door.
