It is the wounds!
Dr. Sanjay Gupta: The damage to the human body caused by firearms | CNN
I know the grandparents of a 14 year old girl murdered in the Parkland shooting. Know them quite well in fact. Parkland high school shooting - Wikipedia The damage done by these rounds from AR-15 type weapons is very extensive. AR-15 style rifle - Wikipedia Many trauma physicians have written about treating these kind of wounds. Why do semi-automatic rifles cause so much damage? - ABC7 Los Angeles |

First, the watermelon test... You have no idea what calibre round they used with the handgun. If it was a sub-sonic .22, yes, it would most likely leave a small entrance/exit wlound. If it was a 9mm or .45 defensive round that expands on impact? It would cause much more damage... When they talk about rifles, they use a lot of "MAYS" and "COULDS"... When they talk about children, they only mention that "rifles cause more damage in children", due to the smaller organs, less fat, etc. What they leave out is than handgunst will also have the same effect on children, for the same reasons... |

You assert the main difference between the U.S. and Australia is that Australia does not have the NRA. The country’s land territory is the sixth-largest in the world at 7.692 square kilometres. When measuring the population against its land area, Australia has one of the lowest densities in the world. Compared with the population density of other countries such as that of the United States, which is 35.71 persons per square kilometre, Australia has only 3 persons/km2. It also has a lower density than Canada’s 4 persons /km2, New Zealand’s 18 persons/ km2, and the United Kingdom’s 275 persons/ km2. Thomas Stucky and John Ottensmann show that rates of murder, rape, robbery and aggravated assault are generally higher in areas with high-density residential developments and commercial property, and generally lower in areas characterized by industry, parks and schools. The U.S. Continental land border with other countries (you know like where guns could be smuggled in) is approximately 6000 miles. The Australian land border with other countries is .......0 Quite a few other differences between the 2 countries. But I think you should stick with the NRA being the main difference. It's like a warning sign on your forehead that allows other's to stay clear as there may be some cognitive abilities missing or degraded. |

.........To prove that.......I think that any gun enthusiast that was attacked by a brown bear in Alaska would rather have in their hands the old 30-30 rifle rather than a 44-magnum six-gun! |
