with a child, going...
"Yolanda, quick, get Hans.
Bring him over. Come on."
I'm gonna talk about something now that
sort of splits the crowd a little bit.
Uh...
Gun control.
Now... No, wait. Before you...
Don't get excited because
The anti-gun people are
like, "Yeah! Do it, Jim!"
No, let's just...
this, I wanna say this, right?
I believe in your right
as Americans to have guns.
I'm not trying to stop
you from having guns.
All I'm saying is this is my
personal belief on the opinion.
My opinion on the... Oh, it doesn't matter.
I don't like guns, right?
I'm gonna say some things
that are just facts, right?
In Australia, we had guns,
In 1996, Australia had the
biggest massacre on Earth.
It still hasn't been beaten.
And...
Now, after that, they banned the guns.
Now, in the 10 years before Port
Arthur, there was 10 massacres.
Since the gun ban in 1996, there
hasn't been a single massacre since.
I don't know how or
why this happened, uh...
Maybe it was a coincidence, right?
Now, please understand that I
understand that Australia and America
are two vastly different cultures
with different people, right? I get it.
In Australia, we had the
biggest massacre on Earth,
and the Australian government
went, "That's it! No more guns!"
And we all went,
"Yeah, all right, then. That
seems fair enough, really."
Now, in America, you had
the Sandy Hook massacre
where little, tiny children died,
and your government went,
"Maybe...
we'll get rid of the big guns?"
And 50% of you went, "F***
you! Don't take my guns!"
So, here's where it gets confusing, right?
Now, as I said, I am all for
I think you should be able to have
guns. It's in your constitution.
What I am not for is
bullshit arguments and lies.
There is one argument and one
argument alone for having a gun,
and this is the argument...
"F*** off. I like guns."
It's not the best argument,
but it's all you've got.
And there's nothing wrong with it.
There's nothing wrong with saying,
"I like something. Don't
take it away from me."
But don't give me this other
bullshit. The main one is,
"I need it for protection.
I need to protect me. I
need to protect my family."
Really? Is that why they're
called "assault rifles"?
Is it?
I've never heard of these f***ing
"protection rifles" you speak of.
Protection? What the f***
are you talking about?
You have a gun in your house,
you're 80% more likely to
use that gun on yourself,
And people think, "Well,
You don't know that, because you know what?
From time to time We all get sad
One day you're
happy Then you're sad
And then, uh-oh
Protection.
I had a break-in in Manchester, England,
where I was tied up, I had my head cut.
They threatened to rape my girlfriend.
They came through the window
with a machete and a hammer,
"Well, imagine if you had a gun."
And I'm like, "All right.
I was naked at the time.
I wasn't wearing my holster.
I wasn't staring at the window
waiting for c*nts with
machetes to come through."
What world do you live in where
you're constantly f***ing ready?
You have guns 'cause you like guns!
That's why you go to gun conventions!
That's why you read gun magazines!
None of you give a sh*t
about home security.
None of you go to home
security conventions.
None of you read Padlock Monthly.
None of you have a Facebook picture
of you behind a secure door going,
"F***ing yeah!"
Like you're going to be ready
if someone comes into your house.
You have it at all f***ing times.
By the way, most people who
are breaking into your house
just want your f***ing TV!
coming to murder your family?
How many f***ing enemies do you have?
Jeez, you think a lot of yourself
if you think everyone's
coming to murder you.
See, if you have it readily
available, it becomes unsafe.
You have it in your bedside table,
one of your kids picks
it up, thinks it's a toy,
shoots another one of your kids.
Happens every f***ing day, but people go,
"That'd never happen in my house
'cause I'm a responsible gun owner.
I keep my guns locked in a safe."
Then they're no f***ing protection!
Someone comes into the house,
you're like, "Wait there, f***-face!
Oh! You've come to the
I tell you what.
I'm gonna f*** you up!
Okay.
Is it 32 to the left or 32 to the right?
Your mother's birthday?
Why the f*** would I know
your f***ing mother's birthday?
Maybe if you didn't leave the window open
'because it's too hot in here,'
we wouldn't be getting
f***ing murdered, right?"
I find the NRA to be hard work.
The fact that they always
think the answer is more guns.
After Sandy Hook happened,
the NRA said, and I quote,
"None of this would have happened
if the teachers had guns."
I...
I think they're forgetting
what school was like.
casual teacher that used to...
Whenever she came into school,
you and your friends would see her and go,
"Oh, we're gonna make her cry."
And then she'd stand in front
of the class with a bit of chalk
and her hands would be shaking,
and you'd go,
"You're never getting
married, are you, Miss?
Then she'd get back to
her 1967 Volkswagen Beetle,
and she'd be crying
over the steering wheel,
just, "Why don't they like me?"
Let's give that c*nt a gun
and see how things work out!
And then they go,
"Oh, well, answer to that,
we'll just add more guns."
They go, "We'll put an armed security
guard at every school across America."
Yeah, that'll work out.
Not a lot of wiggle room
to be a f***ing hero!
Someone comes onto the school and...
And you've got Kevin.
Now, I'm sure Kevin's
sh*t-hot at Call of Duty,
but it might not f***ing
cut it, ladies and gentlemen.
Now, I understand that when I'm
doing this joke in this room,
50% of you agree with me, 50%
of you don't agree with me,
and I do respect the people
who don't agree with me.
Don't think I don't.
Out of the 50% that don't agree with me,
smart enough to realize
this is a comedy show and
it's not to be taken seriously,
and they're laughing along 'cause
it's just funny jokes, right?
And then the next 20%, have
sort of phased out a little bit.
They're looking around, going,
"Wonder how they got
that chandelier up there?"
And then...
there's the last 10%.
And they're f***ing furious.
Right now, in this room and
the people watching at home...
10% of you are f***ing seething. Just...
And for a couple of reasons. First
reason, I'm making good points.
Second reason. Second reason.
Second reason, and this is the big one,
I'm foreign...
