Gotta say it was very nice. Great quality of life, beautiful country, beautiful people.

all those who think living in uk would be cool ,,,take out your guns and shoot yourselfs now .this place has gone down hill so much, high tax on everything ,you have hardly any rights what so ever ,and the rights you do have at moment the government are trying to take those away ,as for the right to defend yourself ...if some shit breaks into your house and robs you , you catch them in the act and give em a slap ,,,they complain and you go to prison for protecting your own family and stuff fucked up or what.
trust me this whole country is completely fucked and should be shut down
me and my wife ,kids are out of this hell hole as soon as the government lets us save up

^Nice. They just played a 9-11 tape on the radio yesterday of a woman blasting a guy as he broke into her house. Apparently he was wasted/high on meth, wrecked his truck then decided that breaking into this woman's house was a good idea.

Probably took him 30-40 seconds to get in? Throwing furniture, the lady was like, "I don't want to shoot this man but I will."
Operator says, "Ma'am you have to defend yourself."

BANG.

^^90% of people here are not allowed to keep guns those that do have to go thru some strict checks
one guy a couple of years ago caught two men robbing his house in the middle of nowhere, he confronted them with a shotgun that he had a licence for and they still pushed him so he shot one of them in the leg and called the police.... the two scumbags got told off and the bloke served time (a few years) for attemted manslaughter and when he was released from prison he got sued, and had to pay thousands ,lost his farm to the two fuckers cos they claimed loss of earnings????????CAN'T GO ROBBING NOW,, WILL HAVE TO GET A LOW PAID JOB don't ya just feel sorry for em
should have shot the fuckers in the head would have been cheaper for him just a small bit of fucked up uk for you and its getting worse ,,,the thing with this country is at least 80% of the shit that happens here is hushed up and will never make the news ,,,,our biggest news stories come from over there cos the shit government here don't want other countries to know how shit it is here
great britain....NO....greatest steaming pile of bullshit in existance :hitler:

Australia: because i used to bang a girl from Australia and that accent made me giddy. = would go nuts in a country where every woman had that accent! it is also a climate closer to what i am used to. the gun thing would suck though.

You don't need the quasi-military guns out here and you sure as shit don't need to carry one on you.

Why not??? you dont have any crime?????? No larger predators in the out back???? No crazy idiots that beat kids to death in train stations????

Your crime rates have gotten worse over all and gun crime has not gotten better since you baned them.

I would live in Cuba, in an air conditioned house.

I would have a maid who procured hookers for me, and cooked dinner for me everyday.

THIS.
Baseball bat isn't sufficient for even the SPIDERS out there! :crazy:

honestly I don't care enough for that to stop me, but the copyright/censorship laws out there ARE something that might be a showstopper. Especially when it comes to adult games, if you like the xbox then consider somewhere else.

Lawl.

Firstly, guns aren't banned out here. You can still own a pretty serious hand gun/shot gun or rifle. There are also plenty of very active hunting/shooting clubs that go out into "the outback" (lawl x2) and shoot buffalo/feral cats/pigs/deer/camels.

We have violent crime, but not the kind that you guys have. You are mistaken if you think you need a gun to stop 50% of the criminals out here. Want to use a gun to defend yourself in a break-in? Chances are you'll get put on a manslaughter charge as the few people i've known who have had to confront a violent intruder have been able to see them off without resorting to weapons of any kind - and at worst you'll face a knife (which can easily be countered with a swingable weapon with long reach). Violent home invasions are rare and people being bashed to death can happen anywhere - the worst "criminal" deaths of late have been people in fights at nightclubs or outside pubs falling and hitting their heads.

Larger predators in the outback? How will an AK-47 help you against a snake? Crocs, Buffalo, feral pigs and cassowarys are something you could use a gun on but the crocs are a protected species and it's more common sense that you just don't go in areas they are likely to be. Call it "active Darwinism" if you will.

Crime rate stats are full of shit - 90% of the serious gun crime perpetrated in the last 10 years has been gangs and bikies having turf wars against each other, NOT people using firearms on innocents (like in armed robberies). On the most part, Australians are apathetic so if some hyped up scumbag starts waving a piece around and screaming "give me money so I can stick it up my arm" we'll just give it to them rather than going Rambo and defending the right to have $40 in our wallets.

I'm not saying we're a crime-free utopia - far from it- and we have some seriously fucked laws (censorship, road rules, etc) but NOBODY out here NEEDS to carry a gun as a means of self-defence (unless you're in a violent gang or a criminal).

Jeez you Yanks watch way too much Croc Dundee and Wolf Creek...
