- Former Australian Prime Minister Kevin Rudd joins CNN's Pamela Brown to discuss what the United States can learn from Australia about gun reform efforts after the country implemented firearms restrictions following a deadly mass shooting. #CNN #News
The best method of gun control is a tight grip and lean into the recoil.
And drive the weapon
Cars kill people, we gonna ban cars now?

In his majority opinion, Judge Richardson noted that the ability of Americans to exercise self defense was the “central component” of the Second Amendment.
Richardson added that the right of the citizenry to arm itself was self-defense against tyrannical government.
“So while the individual right of self-defense was “the central component” of the Second Amendment, the civic purpose “was codified” based on the fear that a tyrannical government would eliminate the civically minded militia. Both reflected the pre-existing right of self-defense that the Founders valued as the core purpose of the state. “In the Founders’ world, individual self protection and community defense were not wholly separate spheres,” Judge Richardson stated.
Leftists want to disarm their people so they can rob you without issues. Save a life and kill a leftist.

Never take a knife to a gun fight.
What can Americans learn by Australian gun laws. How fast home invasions triple
home what?
& hey, what's with your mandatory evacuations? I don't understand how you can talk about having freedoms & gun rights when your FEMA can force you from your home & not even let you take your pets, let alone guns!
@@mehere8038 thank the Democrats in America for that
@@someonenew3547 was still there during trump wasn't it! We don't tollerate any crap like that here! Our government doesn't even try to make us, they just bribe us to leave eg when the houses were burning down, the navy evacuated 1000 people to safety & also took over 100 cats, dogs, rabbits & birds onto the navy ship in order to get the people to agree to evacuate instead of staying behind & burning to death. Our government & military are well trained in what's expected of them when responding to our needs :)
@@mehere8038 That’s a childish mentality to completely rely on the government for your own safety. The right to bear arms is a good thing for self defense.

The reason we're covid free while you're the world's most infected is cause you thought your government was going to save you & did nothing to help yourselves! We just followed our standard protocols of getting accurate information from our government & scientists & making our own decisions as to how we were going to respond to the available information to keep ourselves & our neighbours safe
Nothing, shall not be infringed
Most Australians respect others rights as well as their own. Big difference.
What do you mean by others rights? Gun rights or the right to be white?
@@a.alphbond9003 Others rights? It is simply looking at what benefits everyone in the community. We all have the right to feel safer going to work, to school, to the shopping centers, the theater .......... and on and on. I am aware of the American constitutional right to bare arms, but as an Australian, much as I try, I cannot understand why so many feel that they have to do so, especially automatics and semi-automatics.
@@a.alphbond9003 Raciest!
I fucking love you haha
Australia has a racist problem that is on par with Americans. Not so different at all.
We’ll learn nothing because we’re stupid.
That's too much of broad brush---just don't put smart and responsible gun owners in with the stupid 🙄
Well if we are stupid, that clearly gives us room to learn because stupid is as low as it goes...typically for the US, we have to be on the verge of some sort of major catastrophe before we do anything that might constitute learning...it is a shame because strategy and proactive vision and work is the proper and mature way to go
@Jay Dickson America thinks it has the right to poke its nose into other people’s country! Country’s do not call on America to fix their problems! They interfere where it’s not wanted!
Only 204 automatic weapons were handed in out of the 660, 000 guns handed in in 1996...I guarantee all the criminals in the country did not hand in their automatic weapons.
@Jay Dickson No I can’t be bothered! It’s an opinion! You may not agree and it’s your right!

Honestly it could be video of a racist shooting, something about “last warning” on climate change, Flint Michigan still doesn’t have clean water... or an interview with Paul Rudd. It’s clear nothing changes.
@@markoakley2508 You are a prime example education has indeed failed.
This guy quite literally made the point on why it is a slippery slope. A gun registration will lead to confiscation of all semi auto weapons in the US.
They'd have to figure out a way to get around SCOTUS for that to happen. The current precedent is that certain subcategories of weapons (along with certain accessories like high capacity mags, mods, etc.) can be banned but not all weapons of a general type (handgun, rifle, etc.)
And it has done in Australia and New Zealand.
womp womp no more deadly guns to random civillians :(((((((((
and that's a problem? The rest of the world will never understand Americans on this issue.
Yes it is@@carokat1111. It's an issue which has existed for decades. Tyrannical leaders often involved firearm and other weapon restrictions. In a more discriminatorial sense, Scotland had such before the rest of Britain because the Highlanders didn't agree with the King of the time.
To put aside the tens of 20th century dictatorial governments whom have benefitted of these restrictions, I can provide a more relevant example.
During the Ukraine war, Zelensky realised Ukraine did not have the military might to fight the Russians despite its great technology. Numbers are valuable. So, Zelensky removed the enforcement of all firearm laws and hurried the training of his people. Fortunately for him, Ukraine is an ex-soviet bloc country, so it has weapons stockpiled everywhere. This allowed for fast arming of their nation. If the offensive swept any faster, people likely wouldn't have been trained in time as training takes months if not years.
This is one of the founding bases to the Second Amendment to the United States Constitution.
Remember, it's the Second Amendment, not the twenty seventh. Therefore, it was one of the first considerations ever made.
Back then, the US wasn't short of smart generals and politicians. Given the incoming restrictions of overpowered empires and governments of the time, they were not going to overlook the same eventuality occurring within their new country. Thus why the Second Amendment is necessary to the security of a free state.
"If you poll the average americans, they want something done to reduce the risk of mass shootings" no shit. It doesnt mean go after law biding citizens.
who is going after law abiding citizens?? Its as if you gun-nuts are literally deaf and dumb. Not one politician in any country (including Australia) has restricted the right for a law abiding citizen to legally purchase a gun. There are simply laws to regulate and make sure that you are a law abiding citizen. If you are, than what are you worried about?
@@dennydritic2628 let me make it easier. Say your a person that likes cars. Maybe you like to collect muscle cars. Well now the government says that muscle cars kill more people than any other car. But you know that isnt true, and that most muscle cars, being collectors items are kept in garages. So now they are gonna ban them, and anyone that doesnt give them to the government, gets fined and then imprisoned at some point if they dont give up their personal property.
@@dennydritic2628 btw just go through any countries holocaust or dictatorship segment and look at how they disarm people first.
@@MrAwesome1089 except with guns it is true. its called math, statistics, you know science, proof, evidence , data. all those crazy commy "buzzwords"
@@dennydritic2628 whats the stats? Show me them. Because if your talking about the CDC stats or FBI stats the numbers you speak of prove thebopposite of what you claim. And acxording to CDC guns are used to defend and save lives more times than they are to take lives
Being raised responsibly is the thing
Yea most of the mass shooters have been from affluent families, so this makes no sense.
It's a cultural problem not a legal one. Why else have the US death rates from firearm deaths gone up very rapidly in the last 50 years when the firearms used for these cases haven't changed. It's cultural
To be able to learn you have to be willing to learn.
Hello Calvin
I have learned that gun control nuts are nothing but authoritative pricks
@@sheepdog5799 serious questions, how many people would have to die from mass shootings and gun crime for you to even consider amending gun laws even slightly?
A hundred thousand? A million? Ten million?
Or would you have to be the last person standing?
@@kaiza6467 that doesnt make me consider amending gun laws, that makes me consider that if every american excercized their second amendment rights and every day carried a firearm, there would be a good person with a gun everywhere, and that scares bad guys.
@@kaiza6467 if "amending laws" actually stopped criminals, the law against murder wouldve prevented all those mass shootings youre referring to. It doesnt. People who want to do violence will get ahold of tools to do so regardless of what laws you change or rights you take away. Maybe more of the focus should be on ensuring our youth has opportunities for self betterment and a healthy mindset, so that people can stop feeling so powerless and pathetic that they have no other means to express themselves outside of violence.
Australia does not have this thing called The United States Constitution so then there’s that.
@Jet D a piece of paper ? Typical pos lib huh ?
I think you mean that Australia doesn't have a 'Bill of Rights'. And yes, you're right we don't, either at a Federal or State Level.
So what this, in essence, means is that our Federal and State Legislatures (Parliaments we call them here) can pass any law they want with no constitutional impediment. No law they pass can be struck down by a court e.g. SCOTUS, because it abrogates a Bill of Rights unlike it can be in the US from what I understand.
I live inAustralia. I NEVER live in fear of guns.
Theirs plenty unregistered guns around in the hands if criminals though. Tougher gun laws only made it harder for police to know who has them. Many guns that was suposed to be crushed got taken and sold to criminals. People still bring them into the country illegally at the warf. Only 1 in 5 containers only get checked.
@@Nathan-ry3yu yeah but the criminals that have the unregistered guns arent the same people doing school shootings, those are depressed teenagers that have easy ascess to an assault rifle which americans seem to be in denial about
But do you live in fear of crime or your government?
Basically, there's a large subset of the US population who think a gun is a replacement for education.

Aussie here. You can’t really compare the U S with Australia when it comes to guns. Americans fought for their freedom, Australians didn’t. The gang crime and poverty in the U S is much greater than in Australia. Hunting for sport is big in the U S while in Australia it’s mostly banned and mainly for survival purposes in rural areas. The Port Arthur massacre was about the only major mass shooting in a long time before that except maybe during the under world gang land shootings between criminals in Melbourne in the 90s.There’s no way they would have given their weapons back. I liked Kevin Rudd as Prime Minister back in 2007 and 2011 but I think he’s got it wrong on this one. The guns are just the symptom and ironically the states with the stricter gun laws in the U S are where more of the mass shootings are.
Guns are always just the symptoms I think we all know this, honestly, but in the states for example the politicians ignore this, and talk about the tool and use fear. It’s never about what they say it’s for. It’s pretty clear they can’t get done what they want if the people have a voice, the voice being the the firearms unlimited.
When you say our ancestors didn’t fight for freedom do you mean from the monarchy? Australians absolutely fought for their freedom….quite literally.
@@schaos2765 well, in ww2 against the Japanese, sure. But not for independence against the monarchy
@@cliftonjames785 Don’t forget the Australasian Anti-Transportation League and the ANZACS. Agreed, Australia did not fight for independence against the monarchy. Although, being part of the commonwealth doesn’t mean freedom hasn’t been fought for nor that Australia is any less “free”.
@@schaos2765 Then why did allow their government to restrict or ban most of their firearms to their citizens? For did not reduce overall violent crime in Australia.

JoePedo Biden: “Nothing in the constitution is absolute.”
So is the 1st, 4th, 5th, or the 13th amendment not absolute? Big Pharma is protected from litigation if their Cov vaccines kill, or maim us. If the intent of vaccines is to protect us from death. Shouldn’t firearms for personal protection also be above reproach? Believing that any government is benevolent enough to truly care for it’s citizenry is literally a slave mentality. Especially when people keep electing sociopaths that are willing to push any populist ideal for the sake of them staying in power. Pelosi is multimillionaire due to her so called “civil service”.

Would someone explain how taking semi automatic weapons from the law abiding citizens will decrease the chances of a mass shooting carried out by the NON- LAW ABIDING CITIZENS?
OK, ask yourself this, who has been responsible for most of the mass shootings at schools? People wo have been able to get these guns easily as they were freely available. If they weren't, how many of these mass shooting would not occur? As been pointed out numerous times, yes you may be able to buy an AR15 on the black market if these weapons were banned, they are in Australia, the difference is, instead of costing $1500 at Walmart, you might pick one up for $40,000! What run of the mill idiot or kid would have that type of money? And ask yourself how it is that other countries have banned these weapons haven't been confronted with these Non law abiding citizens you speak of?
It’s pretty simple : military styled weapons availablity and lax licensing and securing of weapons versus Australia’s laws which address both issues... no one is saying ban guns just better management of the types and who gets to gather an arsenal in their cupboard
Ok so I ask again.....who takes these scary looking guns away from the BAD GUY? The person I may need to defend myself from? Here is a news flash....criminals don’t care you want their SEMI automatic weapons, they will keep theirs while the law abiding citizens turns his or hers in. Now the good guy if he or she is lucky will pick a hiding place the intruder doesn’t look in. You’re angry....you’re angry about the mass shooting but instead of taking your anger out on the bad guy, it’s easier for you to restrict the good guy and even blame the gun manufacturers.

Single bolt action, and police inspections on how secure they are

I do believe that gun owners should keep their weapons in a safe and or locks set on them to prevent a thief or a kid from from using it with ease. Half of the mass shootings in America is simply dumbasses leaving their weapons lying around unattended.

Despite popular belief guns are not banned in the UK. The laws are so strict that only those who genuinely need them can own them such as farmers etc. Since the Hungerford massacre in 1987 when the rules were revamped only 2 mass shootings has happened here.Even when the IRA declared a ceasefire and lots of their automatic weapons went missing no mass shootings occurred.

Semi autos, which you can have with appropriate licenses etc, are very useful and commonly used in feral animal control. However, I agree that other uses would be limited for most people.
Also, an understanding of the histories of Australia and the USA will show you that firearms are deeply embedded into the American psyche, culture, legal system and society in a way that is just not the case in Australia.
Remember, America was settled with firearms, fought its way to its current democracy with firearms, has massive firearms industries, became the leading economic and military power post WW2 with firearms, sustains an active hunting culture, uses firearms to protect from animals that will on occasion actively hunt and kill people.
@@KeepItSimpleSailor See, I have lived & worked in both countries & the gun culture was very much imbedded in the Aussie way in the past.
All the weapons available currently in the US were also available in Australia & there was a great deal of use with the weapons.
Actually, licensed shooters (o\it's an actual job!), for the specific role in pest elimination & culling of animals such as kangaroos, are in a greater proportion in Australia than the US.
All you stated about firearms in America, except massive firearms industries, although there are smaller industries, also happened in Australia.
I am not against firearms or the banning of them, I own several rifles myself, but why the availability of military styled weapons for the general use of the public followed by a poor criteria in allowing almost anyone to access to them is glaringly the reason why the high numbers of firearm related deaths & violence.
It doesn't change overnight, but it does change when strict controls are introduced.

The of the United States Constitution reads: "A well regulated Militia, being necessary to the security of a free State, the right of the people to keep and bear Arms, shall not be infringed."

What is interesting to note is that it was an Australian conservative government, the Liberal/Nationals Coalition that instituted the new firearm laws & the buy-back scheme & the laws were passed with bipartisan support in the parliament. Makes a mockery of any kind of bipartisan support in the US Congress that these sort of laws would receive. But then, we Australians aren't on a one way road to self destruction. We also don't have firearm manufacturers who profit very handsomely, thank you very much, from these horrific mass shootings. Witness the spike in the sales of weapons after every mass shooting & the jump in the stock price of the weapons manufacturers. Do they want to see a law forbidding people from owning automatic & semi-automatic weapons? Do they want to see the end of mass shootings? Their top executives' bonuses & stock values are linked to increased sales due to mass shootings. They directly benefit financially from mass shootings. It surely must be a sick society when Republican members of congress can blame everyone & everything for these mass shootings rather than the easy access to these military-type weapons & the insistence that more stringent background checks will be an infringement of peoples' "freedoms".
A small correction for the presenter; former prime ministers, such as Kevin Rudd aren't referred to as "prime minister", unlike American presidents. Only current, sitting prime ministers can be.

@@binaryoptionstrade54 hello how are you
LOOK AT SWITZERLAND
Holy shit why do we always compare ourselves to countries that don’t have a strong gun culture?
@J Mass
Countries with similar socioeconomic structures can still be compared, even if they have different populations. We almost never look at raw numbers; we look at percentages.
Lot of us Aussies own guns up here in the Northern Territory, so not sure why they keep pushing this narrative that Aussies dont have guns.
When it comes to firearms, there are no countries to compare ourselves to. We have ~120 firearms/100 people. The next nearest has less than half that and only a small handfull have over 20 firearms/100 people. The average is ~10.9 firearms/100 people.

I’m not talking about “who owns the most guns”
I’m talking about “who takes gun ownership seriously”
@@Scuuurbs Not on this issue. If you look at the stats, we are a ridiculous outlier. No one even remotely comes close to our firearm numbers.
For example, were one to scale Australia's buyback programs up to our level, it would cost us ~$50B at the very least and still leave ~300M firearms in circulation.
Never surrender your weapons too anyone e specially GOVERNMENT
We can learn that it's stupid and won't work here.
How is it stupid? Do you mind refining your point?
