Not having a gun didn't stop those two from commiting a crime but a bullet in their head would have.
How often do you think carjackings happen in Australia?

The answer is: hardly ever.

Sure we don't have guns down under but we also have a miniscule rate of gun violence.

To paraphrase Michael Moore, if guns made people safer then the U.S.A. would be the safest country on Earth, but it's not - it's the most violent.
