We had a mass shooting here in Australia in 1996 and that was our last one. We had others before it. We changed our gun laws after the one in 96 and had a gun amnesty. People handed them in. Farmers still have guns and you can still have a gun license for certain things but it’s been 26 years since we’ve had a mass shooting. I don’t get how people can think it’s ok to have so many shootings every year and make no changes to gun laws.

I think that for many Americans (who fled Europe because the wanted to be free), the gun is a sign of their freedom.
I don't understand it ...
