:::::: Philip, obviously it's a fool's errand to debate with anyone who has a closed mind, and I don't intend to do so.  Only 1 in 1000 Australians commit violent crimes.  A higher fraction, by orders of magnitude, have bought or used guns.  If you doubt m 99% estimate, then propose your own.  But don't insist on supporting gun control while not forming an estimate about that ratio.  That would be the ultimate in irrationality.

:::::: Virtually every conservative rejects gun control.  A majority of the U.S. Congress rejects it.  Australia has moved dramatically and predictably to the left since embracing gun control.  I suggest you reconsider the issue, but that's obviously up to you.--[[User:Aschlafly|Aschlafly]] 10:17, 4 December 2008 (EST)
