Meet Ned Kelly

When John Oliver went to Australia, he left out that the Aussies had their own "wild west"/Cowboy culture. This is exemplified by Ned Kelly and the rest of the bushrangers.

In fact, as the Oliver clips point out Aussie gun culture was amazingly like the US (without fear of Indonesian Invasion), yet they managed to get gun control and the world didn't fall apart.

Of course, we can enjoy the freedom that we have in Somalia, Yemen, Afghanistan with more guns. In fact, In order to find nations similar to the United States and Mexico on guns, you have to allow every country in the world into the data set, even ones with ongoing wars:

  1. We're not Australia. We're not Australia. We're not Australia.

    How many times do I have to say that? But since once again, we're presented with a graphs that talk about gun deaths, as though how a person is killed is what matters, we see that knocking some sense into gun control freaks takes a long time.

  2. "In order to find nations similar to the United States and Mexico on guns, . . ."

    What?

    Mexico has strict gun control, bans on various types of guns and ammo, etc.

  3. The US is filled with chickenshit cowards like Greg, who wets his little pants in panic at the notion of being separated from his little testosterone supplement. "Pathetic losers" is the kindest term for gunsucks.
