do you live in Brazil or spent time there?
No?
Because you would know that the Brazilian government isn't a leftist regime that wants to perpetuate left ideals.
Its a corrupt strongman president who only cares about maintaining his power. not to mention the cartels getting weapons from... wait for it..... America!!! yup thats right. a majority of illegal firearms in south America and mexico come from the united states!!!
I have several friends who have lived in the Brazil their entire life.
talk about something you actually have facts on.
Speaking of facts, lets talk about Australia. They passed gun restriction laws following their last massacre. the number of gun related crimes and deaths dropped precipitously, and there hasn't been a massacre since.
- “While 13 gun massacres (the killing of 4 or more people at one time) occurred in Australia in the 18 years before the NFA, resulting in more than one hundred deaths, in the 14 following years (and up to the present), there were no gun massacres.”
- “In the seven years before the NFA (1989-1995), the average annual firearm suicide death rate per 100,000 was 2.6 (with a yearly range of 2.2 to 2.9); in the seven years after the buyback was fully implemented (1998-2004), the average annual firearm suicide rate was 1.1 (yearly range 0.8 to 1.4).”
- “In the seven years before the NFA, the average annual firearm homicide rate per 100,000 was .43 (range .27 to .60) while for the seven years post NFA, the average annual firearm homicide rate was .25 (range .16 to .33).”
- “[T]he drop in firearm deaths was largest among the type of firearms most affected by the buyback.”
