    Blatant copy.
    Imitation being the greatest form of flattery.

    False, as most of your memes and "facts".

    "However, what’s more important is the fact that overall suicides and murder have not “plummeted” in the years after the gun ban. Yes, as with the gun-happy United States, the murder rate is down in Australia. It’s dropped 31 percent from a rate of 1.6 per 100,000 people in 1994 to 1.1 per 100,000 in 2012. But it’s the only serious crime that saw a consistent decline post-ban.

    In fact, according to the Australian government’s own statistics, a number of serious crimes peaked in the years after the ban. Manslaughter, sexual assault, kidnapping, armed robbery, and unarmed robbery all saw peaks in the years following the ban, and most remain near or above pre-ban rates. The effects of the 1996 ban on violent crime are, frankly, unimpressive at best.

    Violence Declined Stateside Without A Gun Ban

    It’s even less impressive when again compared to America’s decrease in violent crime over the same period. According to data from the U.S. Justice Department, violent crime fell nearly 72 percent between 1993 and 2011. Again, this happened as guns were being manufactured and purchased at an ever-increasing rate.

    The Australian gun ban’s effect on suicide in the country isn’t any better. While Vox repeats the Harvard study’s claim that firearm-related suicides are down 57 percent in the aftermath of the ban, Lifeline Australia reports that overall suicides are at a ten-year high. The Australian suicide prevention organization claims suicide is the leading cause of death for Australians 15 to 44 years old. So, while Australians kill themselves with firearms less often, it seems they don’t actually take their own lives any less often than before the ban."

    If you love Marmite this is great news.
    No lager yeast is used in the making of XO as it is too weak in flavour.
    Who cares about the Ashes, this news makes every Englishman a winner.

    Okay. See, this is what happens when you're a contrarian, you have to argue against things even if you're for them. No one supports Israel more than I do, and no one supports Jews more than I do, but I can counter this meme, no problem.

    1) No, Jews make Hollywood films that destroy culture.
    2) No, Jews support Democrats who support Islam which supports terrorism.
    3) No, Jews forbid young girls from marrying non-Jews in Israel.
    4) No, Jews mutilate boys' genitalia.
    5) No, Jews prefer shooting and rocket attacks.
    6) No, Jews do dominate the world.
    7,8,9) No, Jews destroy the homes of terrorists to punish their families.
    10) Actually, many of the policies most Jews support are destroying America.

    "Over the past century, Jews in Europe and the Americas have traditionally tended towards the political left, and played key roles in the birth of the labor movement as well as socialism."

    "In the 2018 midterms, Jews were again the most Democratic group as designated by religious identity, with 79% voting for the Democrats while 17% voted for the Republicans."
