They did run a Daily Show episode on the subject of Australia and their gun control laws. I'm not suggesting anything along the lines of "Just do that! It'll work", but there were a few reasons highlit-up for the success of the Australian campaign that may be of help to your argument.

    "The individual mandate so egregiously wrongs this individual that we are going to remove this Constitutional right from all other Americans."

I'd say those Americans who died by the hands of a mass murderer with a gun in his hands got wronged pretty fucking hard. Their families, too. Hell, that ripple went far beyond their immediate friends list.
