WA REVIEW & PETITION - Let's get this done

Post by Heisenburger » 28 Jun 2025, 10:53 pm

G'day fellas,

As we're all probably aware, the Firearms Act 2024 has been referred to the Standing Committee on Legislation for a review. We've got until the 4th of July to enter a submission, we're in the final stretch. I encourage each and every one of you who are eligible to write in a submission, and to get all of your friends and family to do the same, full of key issues and why they're a bad idea like the quantity limits on the new property letters creating an artifical scarcity, quantity limits on firearms, storage requirements, lever release ban, arbitrary calibre limits, etc etc. Anything that has affected you and people you know. I recommend heavily referencing the impact the Firearms Act 2024 will have on conservation efforts as the greens surprisingly enough helped get the review across the line.

I also encourage those who are eligible to sign the new e-petition, and get everyone you know to sign it, that aims to halt the Firearms Act 2024 during the review period, and enact an audit.

Let's absolutely smash the last e-petition, and make sure our voices are heard in thunderous numbers through the submissions. Never give up hope!

Lots of signatures can't hurt, but I wouldn't get your hopes up. I can't comment on WA, but in NSW even our highest signed petitions (even non-firearm related) get responses about how the politicians "understand our concerns" but won't actually be changing anything. Politicians don't work for the public, so don't care what the public wants.
There needs to be more pressure than a quiet little petition.
