I don't read their comment as critical of Australia. It's just that if you're establishing a scale of gun reform, Australia is at the extreme end. In the US, full Australia isn't a realistic goal.

Extreme end? You mean the fucking normal, everyday, global method of not letting psychos and kids have guns? Yeah, so extreme. Amercian's have the weirdest fetishes.
