Not me. Bruce Lee kicked his pansy ass.
So yes... the only person I'd freak out for is Chuck Norris.

I get it its a movie. Still a stupid premise, even true, and I'm sure blinded by race, Spike Lee will over play the race card.
Keep the seeds of discontent stirring and keep being enslaved..
Try reading the description before making yourself look dumb, maybe?

Liberal Redneck: NRA thinks more guns solve everything
Thanks StukaFox, you managed to produce no peer reviewed papers but have claimed some sort of research victory because you got some answers from Google. Nice. I'd hire you as a researcher for sure.
So I mentioned the Australian and New Zealand legislation. Lets see if there is a peer reviewed paper that examines this.
McPhedran, Samara; Baker, Jeanine (2011). "Mass shootings in Australia and New Zealand: A descriptive study of incidence". Justice Policy Journal.
New Zealand didn't enact Australia's draconian laws. You can buy an AR15 there with high capacity magazines. They also haven't had a mass shooting in 20 years. The peer reviewed paper examines this and comes to the conclusion I stated above.
I see you have some ABS data. Nice. I use the ABS all the time.
Oh wait. You took only the last two years of data for a data set that spans over 40 years. Bad form mate. Lets see if the rate of firearms related homicide was reducing at a similar rate before the legislation changes using a much larger time period.
Lucky for me someone else already did this to make my day easier. They used Australian Institute of Criminology (the official government source) data over a 30 year period. It shows the rate did not change with the legislation change in 1997.
Nice examination of the issue on Quora
Are there peer reviewed papers which come to the same conclusion? Yes.
Lee, Wang-Sheng; Suardi, Sandy (2010). "The Australian Firearms Buyback and Its Effect on Gun Deaths". Contemporary Economic Policy. 28 (1): 65–79
Jeanine Baker, Samara McPhedran; Gun Laws and Sudden Death: Did the Australian Firearms Legislation of 1996 Make a Difference?, The British Journal of Criminology, Volume 47, Issue 3, 1 May 2007, Pages 455–469
Chicago? I wasn't going to mention it. I'm not American. I am Australian.
Conclusion: go wipe the egg off of your face.
Edit: forgot to answer your question.
"What conclusions can we draw from this? "
We can conclude that for a short period of time the homicide by firearm rate went up. Just as it goes up and down for any short period of time in most countries. This does not negate the TREND, which in the USA has been downward year on year for the last 25 years. The rate of firearm ownership has increased over the same 25 year period.
Wow, that a fascinating statistic you pulled out of your ass.
Let's see what literally THREE FUCKING SECONDS of searching on Google produces
(search term: "Australia homicide rate")
Oh, look!
http://www.abs.gov.au/ausstats/abs@.nsf/Lookup/by%20Subject/4510.0~2016~Main%20Features~Victims%20of%20Crime,%20Australia~3
Aaaaand I quote:
"Across Australia, the number of victims of Murder decreased by 4% between 2015 and 2016, from 236 to 227 victims
A weapon was used in 69% of Murders (157 victims). A knife was twice as likely to have been recorded as the murder weapon (71 victims), when compared to a firearm (32 victims). (Table 4)"
So there was a DECREASE in the murder rate in 2017. Furthermore, of 227 murders, only -32- were from firearms, or ~14%.
Let's look at mass shootings in Aussieland.
Oh, that's right, we can't: BECAUSE THERE WERE NONE!
How about the good ol' USA where any idiot can purchase a gun?
In 2016, there were 10,182 murders by firearms. (https://www.statista.com/statistics/195325/murder-victims-in-the-us-by-weapon-used/). A total of 17,250 people were reported killed in the US in 2016, with the number of murders increasing by about 8.6% in comparison to 2015. (https://qz.com/1086403/fbi-crime-statistics-us-murders-were-up-in-2016-and-chicago-had-a-lot-to-do-with-it/)
Let's see here: ~14% of the murders is your maligned Antipodes were committed with a firearm and the murder rate was down while ~60% of the murders here in the US were committed with a firearm and the murder rate is up.
What conclusions can we draw from this?
Oh, yeah, there's this as well:
https://www.snopes.com/crime/statistics/ausguns.asp
And a nb: I know you're going to howl and wail that Chicago has the most restrictive gun laws in the US and people are getting mowed down there left, right and center.
From NPR:
(https://www.npr.org/2017/10/05/555580598/fact-check-is-chicago-proof-that-gun-laws-don-t-work)
"A 2015 study of guns in Chicago, co-authored by Cook, found that more than 60 percent of new guns used in Chicago gang-related crimes and 31.6 percent used in non-gang-related crimes between 2009 and 2013 were bought in other states. Indiana was a particularly heavy supplier, providing nearly one-third of the gang guns and nearly one-fifth of the non-gang guns."
(actual study here: http://home.uchicago.edu/ludwigj/papers/JCrimLC%202015%20Guns%20in%20Chicago.pdf )
In conclusion: maybe do a little research next time, hmm?
