Don't bang on about California...
I'm talking about Australia...
Go and find statistics on murder and violent crime rates in our two countries
I know where I'd rather be from a personal safety standpoint
When I'm talking about pineapples don't reply by telling me all about bananas...
I know this lot are hippy commie pinko leftie types but the stats speak for themselves...

This bit is particularly sad...
"According to the Centers for Disease Control, the rate of firearm death of children 0-14 years old is nearly twelve times higher in the U.S. than in 25 other industrialized nations combined. The firearm-related homicide rate is nearly 16 times higher for children in the U.S. than in 25 other industrialized countries combined. The suicide rate of children 0-14 years old is twice as high in the U.S. as it is in those same 25 other industrialized countries combined. Interestingly, there is no difference in the non-firearm suicide rate between the U.S. and these other countries. Virtually all the difference is attributable to suicides committed with guns in the U.S"
Like I said - you gun nuts just don't get it...
