It has now been 12 months since gun owners in Australia were forced by new
law to surrender 640,381 personal firearms to be destroyed by their own
government, a program costing Australia taxpayers more than $500 million
dollars. The first year results are now in:

Australia-wide, homicides are up 3.2 percent

Australia-wide, assaults are up 8.6 percent Australia-wide, armed robberies
are up 44 percent (yes, 44 percent)!

In the state of Victoria alone, homicides with firearms are now up 300
percent. Note that while the law-abiding citizens turned them in, the
criminals did not, and criminals still possess their guns!

It will never happen here? I bet the Aussies said that too!

While figures over the previous 25 years showed a steady decrease in armed
robbery with firearms, this has changed drastically upward in the past 12
months, since criminals now are guaranteed that their prey is unarmed.

There has also been a dramatic increase in break-ins and assaults of the
ELDERLY. Australian politicians are at a loss to explain how public safety
has decreased, after such monumental effort and expense was expended in
successfully ridding Australian society of guns.. The Australian experience
and the other historical facts above prove it.

You won't see this data on the US evening news, or hear politicians
disseminating this information.

Guns in the hands of honest citizens save lives and property and, yes,
gun-control laws adversely affect only the law-abiding citizens.

Take note my fellow Americans, before it's too late!

The next time someone talks in favor of gun control, please remind him of
this history lesson.

With Guns...........We Are 'Citizens'.
Without Them........We Are 'Subjects'.

During W.W.II the Japanese decided not to invade America because they knew
most Americans were ARMED!

Note: Admiral Yamamoto who crafted the attack on Pearl Harbor had attended
Harvard U. 1919-1921 & was Naval Attache© to the U. S. 1925-28. Most of our
Navy was destroyed at Pearl Harbor & our Army had been deprived of funding &
was ill prepared to defend the country.

It was reported that when asked why Japan did not follow up the Pearl
Harbor attack with an invasion of the U. S. Mainland, his reply was that he
had lived in the U. S. & knew that almost all households had guns.

If you value your freedom, Please spread this anti-gun control message to
all your friends!

There is a new holiday on the calendar.
Seen it yet?

KZ,

You should do like Dogfish and keep 15,000 rounds of ammo at the ready and have supplies to load 15,000 more! You might sleep better. Of course, if the US government decides to round you up and exterminate you, they'll do it no matter how many guns or how much ammo you have. But don't let that influence your decision.

RE: Salmo G. Yeah I know, I am confident there are a few guys that are higher up on that list than I would be. I'm just sayin it, while I can. The times they are a changin! Check this out! Washington County Sherrif Oregon
<http://www.co.washington.or.us/sheriff/service/ccw_not.htm> This is
crucial if you live in Oregon and have a concealed carry permit. Pass
this on to everyone you know that cares.

KoneZone that seems a little weird to me. I have a permit as well (though I never/rarely carry) and King County,WA doesn't have my email address.

Did you have to give your county your email addie to get your concealed permit?

Kone:

I am 100% in favor of keeping all of our gun rights. But the stats from Australia are not toally accurate.

You can get an accurate review of that story here.
