This is the greatest thing I have ever seen.

That’s John Howard, Australia’s Prime Minister at the time of the Port Arthur Massacre in 1996. After the massacre, he prompted the passing of gun control laws throughout Australia. Gun buy-back programs resulted in the destruction of 600,000 guns, private sales were prohibited, guns were required to be individually registered to their owners and assault weapons were banned or heavily restricted. The result? Gun homicides reduced 59%, gun suicides dropped 65% and there have been no mass shootings since (4 or more deaths at one time).  

i may hate this man but goddamn if this didn’t work amazingly well

Gun hobbyists, farmers, etc. protested Howard’s push for new gun control laws after the Port Arthur Massacre and it was deemed unpopular. But he pushed it through anyway and the results speak for themselves.

Wake up America.

it is true.

Hahah this is bullshit. You’re comparing two different areas. If you want ‘Sydney’, you should be focusing the map around Town Hall/Wynyard rather than Central. Surry Hills and Darlinghurst don’t count as the city centre, not really anyway.

Alrighty, then. And for fairness, we’ll focus on Melbourne’s CBD too, instead of the neighbouring Carlton/Collingwood

Sydney’s CBD

Melbourne’s CBD

Yah. Yah-yah.

And then there’s this asshole.

and then there’s good ol’ Adelaide, where it takes ten minutes to walk from one end to the other

Let’s have a moment for Adelaide. They pretty much nailed the North-South grid layout, and even managed to whack a few parks in the middle of the CBD (not to mention surrounding the whole fucken joint like some beautiful grassland fortification). As a pretentious Melburnian, I gladly concede to Adelaide. Kudos, SA.

AHEM

my god is that some kind of pimple? a festering boil?

No.
