QPS endangering lives by suggesting the public do their job for them, yet as a licenced firearms owner I'm now deemed as a risk to society.

FMD...seriously...QPS. 15 years ago - I took the entire QLD police establishment to court without legal representation and won and in all honesty, I was dumber than a rope for doing it BUT I learned a lot.
When I lived in Brisbane a roudy group of ppl a few houses away got into it and shots were fired.
I called the police and they took my number.
No one showed up.
30 mins later, they called me back and asked if shooting had stopped.
Seems like things haven’t improved...

One of the things in life I had to learn is that the police are really there to process the crime scene and paperwork afterwards, not really to save you in the middle of it.
