Which is how I found out about them, one day 8 out of 10 cats showed up on my youtube recommended.

I also like Lewis Black and Bill Burr

It's a show in the UK> It's popular. They mostly just tell jokes and play games about what's in the news and later did a spinoff where they play countdown... Where people pretend to be stupid. It's actually really funny.

There we go. You posted them to make a point, thus it's valid to critique points made in the video. Thanks for the confirmation 👆

The criticism being?

You already know the critique: peddling a false narrative about gun crime rates in Australia.

In what sense? It was a very bad massacre that wasn't overtaken in the early 2010s? Because his statement was correct. Some time between 2012 and 2015, I believe.

It was a bad massacre. The thing was their crime rates for shootings were already steadily going down when it happened. And they kept going down.

It's disingenuous to try to suggest "oh we banned guns then boom magically crime went down".

It didn't happen that way.

He states that in the video. The point he made was gun crime went down significantly after the ban.

But it was already dropping, it wasn't cuz of the ban
