Yes they want people to have the right to defend themselves - not require you to carry and have 100% participation rate.

Yup 23 years. 1996 shooting that banned guns in Austrailia. shooting in 1998 5 killed, I see several mass shootings listed since 1996 - while they were not "35 killed 24 wounded" they were still killed by guns. I also see death by axes, arson, blunt instrument, ran over by cars, bashed, strangled and stabbed, drowning.
7 shot in 2018 - well after the gun ban.
Nutters are going to kill people - They just move on to whatever is nearby. Maybe we can pass a law to make it illegal to kill someone - that should fix it, just like prohibition stopped alcohol and the war on drugs.
