I don't want to argue about this and understand America has a "gun culture" we don't have, so it's more complex, but just saw this and wanted to put it out there.
I've seen a video made by Americans about our "police state" and what happened here during the pandemic which was quite interesting and accurate -- Melbourne was declared the most locked-down city in the world by the end of the second year..
Melbourne has now endured 245 days in lockdown since the COVID-19 pandemic reached Australia's shores. This is how The Age's photographers saw it.

But it went on to say that it was related to our strict gun laws and that guns had been taken from us unfairly. Both those ideas are untrue.
