Mr O'Farrell was referring to the 16 drive-by shootings in recent weeks. One person has been seriously injured in the shootings, which are believed to be related to a war between bikie gangs.

Bikie gangs sounds so cute.  Do they wear pink leathers?  Time to ban knives down under.

"However, in 2006-07 six times as many people in NSW died from injuries inflicted by hand and feet, than by guns" It's a nation of ninjas, I tell you.

Maybe I should rephrase:  So what if knife killings go up?   It's to be expected that a certain number of deadly confrontations would occur regardless, and would occur with weapons other than the banned ones.

Maybe I should rephrase, the 2nd amendment didn't mention knives.  Granted, it didn't mention the King of England specifically, but...  oh wait, you were actually trying to make a point.  My bad.
