My musings on the matter -
The time for letter or emails or phonecalls, has unfortunately passed.
By all means call your local members, your state PolMin, your 'Premiers' office....
But unfortunately, we have the situation, that is ACCEPTED only in the case of FIREARMS, it would appear, that the law makers take direct advice from the law enforcers on matters of gunlaws. This advice is convenient, as the police agree with the governments seeking more gun control,
However, we know, through about 2 years of rhetoric, fear mongering, blatant lies and fabrication, that the NFA WAS REVIEWED and a wishlist prepared WELL before this current crapfest.
The COAG was simply the puppet show the convince the sheeple that "the nation agrees, and will show solidarity in acting to make us all safer, so we can sleep at night in safety"
<<insert closed fist rapidly reciprocating in a vertical direction >>
The premiers have an agenda, that of the LIBS / LABS......gun control. There is no doubt, just listen to every single speech, press statement, interview response etc... they want less guns. Never believe the LABS are any different at all to the Libs just because they were not in Government in 96 - the NFA was prepared during the LAB years (Keating IIRC)...
Remember, the Labs ARE SOCIALISTS and they are fundamentally AGAINST an armed populace.
The LIBS will follow the public sentiment that gets them back in office, if they create the fear, then the media portrays a public sentiment supporting gun control, at least saving us from the evil Adler, cause crims and terrorists all want 10year old shotguns... then they support it.
Also, consider the Liberal party of today, proclaiming to be a 'conservative' party, is in fact several mile measures more 'progressive' than the socialists of a century ago.... ie, more socialist than the socialist of the revolutionary times.
Also... a conservative party supporting same same marriage? supporting practically unlimited immigration? supporting 457visa theft of jobs? Illegal-offensive wars in foreign previously 'friendly lands? while alowing our defence force to degrade to the point where they could not possibly defend our land against ANY invasion force...?? Exporting our tax money to 'develop', house and feed needy in other countries WHILE our own people are just as needy and hungry? driving up a needless national debt of $462,890m (this weeks tally) simply to support the creditors with a mammoth income stream?
So...
These mongrels have met, probably several dozens of meeting, 50? 100 meetings?? at all levels from Federal cabinet down to discuss ways to stifle our legal sport and recreation;
Attorney Gen's dep,
Dept of InJustice
State Cabinets
State Premiers
COAG - Council of Aus Govt's
FIRB -Firearms industry reference group (ONLY stakeholder token group)
ACIC - Aus Crim. Intel commission
AIC - Aus Institute of criminology
LCCSC - LCCSC Law, Crime and Community Safety council
MCPEM -Ministerial Council for Police and Emergency Management - Police (replaced the infamous APMC - AustralASIAN Police Ministers Council)
FPWG - Firearms policy working group; From the 2005 'Senior Officers Group' meeting minutes; "....some of the inconsistencies / shortcomings with the current NFA categorisation include;.......*lever and bolt action shotguns are not specifically covered, creating a potential for high capacity firearms of this nature to be obtained by sports shooters." ->Thats 11 years of planning, for shotgun lever recat anyway...
ALL of these bodies / groups, have advised in one direction when it comes to firearms - MORE restrictions, now, come Friday, the COAG;
Malcolm Turnbull MP - Australian Government (Chair)
Mike Baird MP - New South Wales
Daniel Andrews MP - Victoria
Annastacia Palaszczuk - Queensland
Jay Weatherill MP - South Australia
Will Hodgman MP - Tasmania
Andrew Barr - Australian Capital Territory
Michael Gunner - Northern Territory
Mayor Troy Pickard - Australian Local Government Assoc.
Will do at least one thing on Friday - go through the motions and VOTE for a recategorisation of the Lever shotgun 5rd, and Lever shotgun 5+
What else will come out of it in relation to other firearms, lever centrefires, mag capacities in general...that is the only remaining question as far as I'm concerned, perhaps they'll leaver those matter to 'resolve' until the net meeting....
Sidenote;
EVEN the mayor of a small town gets a say, a vote in the Adler debate....A local council... the illegitimate arm of government!
HOWEVER
A recategorisation, at least in VIC, requires changes to the Firearms Act, in states where the Categories are part of a legislative instrument (regulations), ie. NOT requiring parliamentary approval, they will need impact assessments of some kind - so do not let the bureaucrats suggest there is NO impact with the change....
In VIC, where we have 2 SFFP mps, it will be very interesting when they dust off the new(like it hasnt been prepared!) Act...and noting the Commies DO NOT have the upper house, not even with the watermelons.... who will they 'convince'??...
Let the games begin...ah, continue, not that these are at all games...
