4. Its time that the US did the same thing

I noticed that the NRA got up on Friday and stated that there should be more guns to protect schools.
I have a NEWS FLASH fir the NRA.....go away and just hope that its NOT your kids that are the next ones that could/would be assassinated.
The NRA should be ashamed of themselves.John Howard did the right thing,BUT we dont have an out of date constitution,(unlike the US)that was written in 1778 and made law in 1780,and the 2nd law states that an American has the right to bare arms......we we in Australia to drive a motor vehicle,BUT you break the law and you pay for it,we also have many laws that you break them and you pay for it.The Port Arthur assassination,the bloke got what he deserved and why,well he broke the law.It seems to me that no matter what one does in the US that the culprit,wont stand by what they have done and they save the jails by killing themselves,BUT that doesn't stop the heartache of the families.
Its time that USA did something with their constitution and that the NRA was put into its place.....
I dont care what these people think and what they say,BUT hey just remember that one day it could be a member of your family and then what will you say.
I disagreed with many things that JWH did,BUT I do have to agree with that law and the buyback......
