Hillary said she wants a gun buy-back like Australia, but that was a mandatory confiscation. The government ponied up some cash but there was nothing optional about it.
Making all of Australia a gun free zone had the expected effect, but not the one Hillary or any other Democrat promises.
Gun owners in Australia were forced by new law to surrender 640,381 personal firearms to be destroyed by their own government, a program costing Australia taxpayers more than $500 million dollars. The first year results:
Australia-wide, homicides went up 3.2 percent
Australia-wide, assaults went up 8.6 percent
Australia-wide, armed robberies went 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 them in, the criminals did not, and criminals still possess their guns.
Hillary is pro-criminal, which makes a lot of sense given that she is one.
