"It could be Australia's worst mass shooting in 22 years. A family of seven including four children was found dead with gunshot wounds Friday at a rural property in southwest Australia in, police and media said. The children died with their mother and grandparents"
"Australia's gun laws are widely acclaimed as a success"
"The generally accepted definition of a mass shooting - four deaths excluding the shooter in a single event - has been met only once in Australia since then. In 2014, a farmer shot his wife and three children before killing himself."

Lets see, Australia has strict gun laws and has had 11 killed in mass shootings since 2014, both instances domestic shootings, while the US, without strict laws, has had 102 people killed in the last year alone, you think there might be a correlation between gun control and mass shootings?
Further irony is that both of Australia's shootings occurred in rural areas and one of the few Australian citizens allowed to own weapons are farmers in rural areas
