AUSTRALIA GUN SURRENDER INCREASES CRIME

Bill Velek, Pro-Gun Judge and Prosecutor writes: “I thought you all would like to see the real figures from Down Under.” It has now been a year since gun owners were forced by a new law to surrender 640,381 personal firearms to be destroyed by the Australian government, a program costing taxpayers more than $500 million dollars. The first year results are: In Australia homicides are up 3.2 percent, assaults are up 8.6 percent, and 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 in their guns, the criminals did not.) For 25 years we had a steady decrease in armed robbery with firearms, this has changed drastically upward in the past year, since the 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 the large cost of ridding Australian society of guns. The Australian experience proves what happens when guns are taken from the hands of honest citizens. Gun control laws affect only the law-abiding citizens. At least 83,000,000 gun owners behaved peacefully today. Thanks to: Bill Velek http://www.velek.com/bill/boycott.
