Australia Admits Gun Buyback Failure, Announces Amnesty

The Australian government has begrudging and indirectly admitted the failure of their strict gun control laws, which included a gun buyback scheme that has been ignored by hundreds of thousands of citizens.

In a desperate attempt to get guns out of the hands of citizens who refuse to give them up, the Justice Minister has lamely offered an amnesty that amounts to whining, “won’t you please hand over your liberty?”

Australia on Friday announced a gun amnesty for next year after a criminal intelligence report estimated there were 260,000 illegal firearms in the country.

Australia introduced tight curbs on gun ownership after the massacre of 35 people by a lone gunman in and around a cafe at a former prison colony in Tasmania in 1996.

The country has had no mass shootings since and has been held up by many abroad as an example of the need for tight controls.

The amnesty comes amid a debate over gun laws that has opened up a rift in the ruling Liberal Party, pitting Prime Minister Malcolm Turnbull against the man he overthrew ahead of a key party gathering this weekend.

“The amnesty will provide an opportunity for those individuals who, for whatever reason are in possession of an unregistered firearm, to hand it in without fear of being prosecuted,” Justice Minister Michael Keenan told reporters in Melbourne.

“While Australia has some of the strongest firearm controls in the world, illicit firearms remain the weapon of choice for criminals.”

It's all incremental, the more Dimocrats that are elected to office, the more your gun rights will be threatened.
It's the same with the GOP and abortion.

Why are you lying and saying you are a conservative?

That would be the proper conservative response to another nation's sovereignty and liberty. So why do you all lie about being “conservative”?

Moron...Australia can do what it wants with it's gun laws...the point is to show that the model nation for American anti gunners and their gun control agenda has gun control laws that failed.....

Australian gun control has been a failure......it doesn't work any better than the dumb gun laws the American anti gunners propose....

The only thing that actually works....locking up gun criminals for long sentences...is fought tooth and nail by left wingers.....

Yeah, clearly we don't have enough of us locked down yet performing free labor in some cases for corporate owned prisons, sheesh. Profit from bondage must be the "answer".

No....making sure criminals who use guns to commit violent crimes can't do it anymore.....is that really such a hard concept for you to understand...?

And another look at the failure of Australian gun control....

Australia Admits to 260k Illegal Guns, Launches Gun Amnesty - The Truth About Guns

“The failure of the Australian policy has been years in the making,” westernjournalism.comreports. “’There is little evidence to suggest that (the Australian mandatory gun-buyback program) had any significant effects on firearm homicides,’ University of Melbourne researchers Wang-Sheng Lee and Sandy Suardi wrote in 2008. ‘Although gun buybacks appear to be a logical and sensible policy that helps to placate the public’s fears, the evidence so far suggests that in the Australian context, the high expenditure incurred to fund the 1996 gun buyback has not translated into any tangible reductions in terms of firearm deaths,’ they added.”

As usual, facts have little to nothing to do with anti-gun policy, especially in the Land Down Under. And so we’re not surprised to read Reuters report that “Australia on Friday announced a gun amnesty for next year after a criminal intelligence report estimated there were 260,000 illegal firearms in the country.”

“The amnesty will provide an opportunity for those individuals who, for whatever reason are in possession of an unregistered firearm, to hand it in without fear of being prosecuted,” Justice Minister Michael Keenan told reporters in Melbourne.

“While Australia has some of the strongest firearm controls in the world, illicit firearms remain the weapon of choice for criminals.”

What does that tell you? One thing’s for sure: it tells presidential candidate Hillary Clinton and the rest of the American civilian disarmament complex absolutely nothing. Should Ms. Clinton become president, how long before Americans are contemplating an amnesty for illegal “assault weapons”?
