The story so far ..

A (Chinese) Asian Economics Student at Monash's Clayton Campus strode in class, shot dead two of his Asian colleagues and wounded five other people. Needless to say, John (only-I-can-have-guns) Howard and Bob (lie-down-and-let-them-rape-you) Brown have been squealing in unison for gun control - a unpleasant, but fortunately uncommon, occurrence. Rudi Redneck and Larry Leftie meet in a bar ..


Larry Leftie: One thing this incident proves is the need to ban guns.
Rudi Redneck: Rubbish it demonstrates the need to ban Asians.
LL: But Asians didn't cause this - guns did.
RR: An Asian did cause this.
LL: But if there were no guns this incident couldn't have happened.
RR: If there were no Asians this incident couldn't have happened.
LL: But you can't judge all Asians on the actions of a few.
RR: You can't judge all gun owners on the actions of a few.
LL: Even if you did ban Asians, gun deaths would still occur.
RR: Even if you banned guns, crimes would still occur.
LL: But guns are inherently evil.
RR: Why?
LL: Because they kill people.
RR: An Asian killed people on this occasion - does that make Asians inherently evil?
LL: Of course not - very few Asians kill people.
RR: Very few guns kill people.
LL: You don't agree with me, therefore you are evil!
RR: Leftie Loser!
LL: Redneck!

Sound familiar? If there are justifications for gun control, the tragedy in Monash is not one of them.
