Funny, the way I have read it is that the laws of Australia, and all other 1st world countries (except for the US) have actually stopped many mass murder events in their countries. The US is, BY FAR. at the top of the class for gun violence. We are number 1 thanks to our patriotic gun makers. And the 2nd Amendment being loosely worded may have contributed to that outcome. People can conjure up patriotic emotions speaking about the 2nd Amendment. But, are those emotions displaced if they contribute to situations like the Uvalde child slaughter?
