Adults in charge. What a concept.

They don't have a party dedicated to feeding blood to the libidinal psychopaths

That is what we always hear after a mass shooting. They never tell us when would be a good time to discuss it.

We in the states need this

No individual needs military grade weapons

This is how you do it

Good. There is no place for guns in civil society. None.

No law magically fixes every problem, we've had laws against murder for thousands of years but it still happens.

Thank you so much! Yes, I thought it was a shotgun...probably helped Ahmed successfully disarm that guy, too!

Exactly. They wouldn't have had access to the 6 guns they used. So yes, it likely will work.

No, silly, I expect libs to arm themselves so that they aren't utterly at the mercy of a hostile state and their MAGA neighbors. I expect the people who say they care about Democracy not to deny themselves and the rest of us the tools to defend it.

If people really wanted to fight back they'd figure out where to get some guns. Shinzo Abe was killed by a gun made out of pvc pipe and duct tape.

And then there's the NRA.

…because THAT is how you handle it! Just like New Zealand.

Wait, what about the thoughts, and the prayers?

Unlike AmeriKKKa‼️

A government acting to protect the public? Impossible!

Good news indeed!

Yeah because they rather just be slaves to their government instead of being competent enough to do on their own

Yeah the republican response to mass shootings is thoughts and prayers to the victims and their families

Americans crying about the Gun laws in the U.S on Social media again. Here's an Idea. Just move to australia. Most if not all of you are ethnic foreigners anyhow. Just move. Move to Europe. Go to Japan. Leave. You guys are do nothings. Give me a break.

Can you even imagine living in a country that prioritized the lives of people over their gun lust???

That's not what the ruling says. It's not that every individual has a right, it's that there is AN individual right. Basically that the govt can ban you from keeping a gun in your home for self defense.

This is one reason why I miss being in Australia.

NRA can't buy off honest caring people who value lives more than the kick backs politicians get

You mean they don’t do the “hope he wasn’t one of us” game?

Australia actually cares about its citizens.

That's leadership and statesmanship.

We're more "Doers" than "Payers"

We actually know we're a secular nation. And we keep religion out of politics... mostly.

Wait a minute, you mean thoughts and prayers aren’t the only solution???

so RUN FOR OFFICE. AFFECT THE CHANGE WE NEED

Well they need those guns. Y'know. In case there's ever a corrupt authoritarian regime that flouts the law and rounds up US citizens.

Here it’s always “too soon”

America is an embarrassment to humanity.

Americans have a high tolerance for violence. Voters do not make serious gun reform a priority and legislators are cowardly. It requires voters making this their absolute first priority at every govt level. We can change this. Unfortunately Americans have greater priorities than innocent lives.

MAGAts would lose their shit and say something stupid about not being able to protect themselves from a tyrannical govt.

And THAT’S how a rational nation responds to a mass shooting!

Today I saw an extreme anti-abortion priest criticize a Cardinal who spoke about the anti Semitic attack at Bondi, and the school shooting at Brown, because this priest supports the 2nd Amendment...

Great, but that will not discourage criminals nor terrorists...

It was never so much that Australians are more willing to he controlled than Americans (lol), more that guns form so small a part of our everyday that the vast majority of us were like "fair enough, I don't use it anyway" or mostly "fair enough, I never even had one". The cash helped too.

Yep, we were just waiting for an excuse to pounce on guns tbh.

My heart goes out to the students at Brown University and the people at Bondi beach in Australia. At least one country has the courage to act.

It's not even about giving them up. It's about stricter laws to own them, and the type and amount you can own. Let's get real, no civilian needs automatic rifles. I mean, what about grenade launchers? Why can't we have them?

A government that at least seems to care about their people.

Good.

There was a Russian agent sleeping with all the NRA bosses a few years ago.

First Brazil jailing their insurrectionist President, now Australia, immediately, dealing with their gun problem. This American is jealous as hell of the competency of other countries! Just clear-eyed governance.

Who knew, right?

Oh I'm sorry I've been dealing with too many low-grade people to upgrade my English again.

Trade your bang bang for boomerang.

Well said!

It’s the guns only Maga refuse to act !!

True... no NRA but we do have a gun lobby. Also some appalling rightwing media (we spawned Murdoch, to our shame). But the majority of us just won't put up with the *good man with a gun, thoughts and prayers, Second Amendment* bullshit. If we had a Second Amendment, we would amend the fucker!

Thing I never get as an outsider is how the “well regulated militia” part of 2A doesn’t seem to be important. Feels like it was never supposed to be isolated people doing their own thing.

Why don't you just leave. You're european anyhow. This land isn't yours. So just leave.

Wait … you mean they didn’t even try “thoughts and prayers” first? So they just … responded with “something” instead of doing … “nothing”? Wow.

Their legislative branch not owned by the gun lobby apparently. Must be nice.

Good!

It's about fucking time they do it. Should have happened decades ago. There's no need for guns.

Sane countries know that thoughts and prayers are not nearly enough.

Yes it is the guns. cbwrong.blogspot.com/2025/12/we-a...

Wow, imagine a government reacting quickly to a tragedy. What must that be like?

That's because of the power of the NRA, which has bought every politician in the US who is open to being bribed, beginning with Fuckface Trump.

👍🏽👍🏽👍🏽🎯🎯🎯

Did no one consider this was no the time to be political? For shame!

EXTREME envy!

No way to prevent this, etc.

Take a (FUCKING) lesson 🇺🇸

But I was told it was too soon to talk about gun control..... Bravo Australia.

The decision to pursue improved gun control laws took Australian leaders less than 24 hours following the Bondi shooting

Australia actually cares about its people.

Gun laws won't stop this jesus most of Frances gun issues come from criss border trade and parts posted in separately. You can also 3D print a gun. Pointless

DAMN! Australia ain’t bullshittin’! They will re-negotiate their current gun laws and make them tougher! Their Prime Minister was quoted after the mass shooting in 1996 by saying: “We’re not going to allow that American disease over here!”

That’s how government is supposed to respond not just pathetically releasing a statement saying “sending prayers.” Watch and learn American congress

This is what happens when politicians aren't on the NRA payroll.

It is literally that easy, and we shame the ones who complain about it 💅

Until Citizens United is overturned & we get gun $ out of politics…or vote in politicians who are like minded & wont take dirty $…we’re gonna hear “thoughts and prayers” ad nauseam.

Ok, good faith here. Yes, there are foreign influencers at work. Yes, there have been attacks on Jewish communities, funded by them. We expelled the Iranian consul over it. Police & ASIO action is escalated. These are different to the anti-genocide protests. Yours, an Aussie non-practicing Jew.

Well if the gun laws were tighter, they likely wouldn't have had access to the 6 guns they used.

And if we had a second amendment, we would amend the fucker!

Even if the new laws prove ineffective, at least they can say they made the attempt to protect their citizens.

This is what rational countries do.

If only the U.S. government cared as much…oh, that’s just crazy talk.

New Zealand 🇳🇿 did the same thing after Mosque shooting. That is the way to do it!

Loudly: keeping guns controlled is the fastest and most effective way to stop Jews being killed! Also helpfully stops other minorities & persecuted groups from being murdered. You can't control thoughts, you CAN constrain the capacity of people to act in those thoughts.

Bad faith. Give the investigation time, to understand the failures. Curtailing hate and discrimination? Yes, faster please. Much harder than weapons regulation though: can't regulate thoughts, block the internet or ban hate. Got ideas for quick wins we can lobby for? PS: I'm ethnically Jew.

Wow. Imagine your country putting the best interests of its people first. Must be nice.

And just like that…

Interesting, but how dose this address the root cause? Also maybe fix the lax enforcement of current law first?

Apparently they love their children more than their guns in Australia. ❤️

Well, that's never gonna happen here (US)! I don't know who you have to kill here - it sure wasn't Charlie Kirk.

But but but...it's too soon, so they're obviously politicizing a tragedy, and they haven't tried decades of praying about it, and everyone knows the only way to stop gun violence is to flood the streets with more guns than people, and.... Yeah. I wish America could be more like Australia.

No shit. They just work.

A government can lift people up through guaranteeing basic human rights: Common sense gun laws, Healthcare 4 All, a livable minimum wage. NOBODY needs a billion dollars. TAX THE RICH. It’s not complicated.
