Million Mom March? A look at Gun Control in the 20th Century

In 1911, Turkey established gun control. From 1915 to 1917, 1.5 million Armenians, unable to defend themselves, were rounded up and exterminated.

With guns, we are citizens. Without them, we are subjects.

28 April Report about the US Mom March in OZ

1996 Limited gun-buyback in OZ - nobody rounded up at all, no deaths of citizens by government instrumentation recorded. Only casualties are Members of Parliament who have become suddenly unelectable. Many previous Parliamentarians scouting vacancy cards at the Commonwealth Employment Service trying to come to terms with how much they don't know about life after the sheltered workshop at Canberra.
