I take this to mean that it is difficult to restrict gun ownership once guns are widely available. Otherwise it makes no sense to me (compare Bhutan vs Congo). And I agree. Our PM had to wear a bullet proof vest for a bit after gun control of *rifles* was introduced, which was done by a (very) conservative government after a particularly gruesome massacre. Mr Howard said then 'I am determined that Australia will not go down the same path as the United States'.
