What a surprise, debate on weapons laws and we are at each other's throats in a couple pages. 1996 all over again.

Keep out of Queensland. We have enough interlopers bring their political ideas and their socialist voting habits up here now, after rooting the place they're leaving.
Just like we have cashed up greenies coming out to primary production country and complaining about cows mooing. :wtf:


I hear they've just made room for more in Morton Bay by booting all the homeless out.


due to the actions of some of those people , alcohol , drug use and criminal acts against members of the public their being moved on .council and the police have also given plenty of warning . i live 25 minutes away mate , and there's some real ratbags spoiling things there

Best state law for sure. NT would be best overall as it is basically QLD but allows unlimited mag capacity for cat B.

All good BR, ... :thumbsup:
The only water were seeing in SA is flowing from your state and it's filling lake Eyre now, it should fill it more than 1974 levels which will be pretty good to see.
Somehow the pelicans that live in the Coorong (all over the country apparently) know the lake is filling, they're already on their way for mass breeding and the Hardyhead fish that have lay dormant under the salt for decades appear from nowhere, no doubt those 2 events fit well with each other ... I might have to go for a trip soon to check it out.

Just saw on the news about the Victorian budget, there has been 13 million set aside to implement the new machete ban.
How can someone actually come up with a figure like this??

I thinks it’s refurbishing the vacant jails for when they effect the new bail laws.

Machete crime is still going strong though. Unabated.

The usual suspects. Because we don’t lock them up and keep them of the streets.

Weak as piss government. If someone is going to commit murder they probably don’t worry about the fine for using a banned item. I think they’re a bit past that.

Epic machete battle between two rival gangs put a shopping centre in lockdown yesterday .

And police caught some other bloke going beserk with his machete in another suburb. Great job and they shot a couple of people, killing one.
But machete bloke is out on bail already.

You couldn’t make this stuff up.

I don't need a machete but have been buying several as of late just because i can. Probably human psychology, the more you tell them you can't have this, the more they want it.

Wouldn't it be novel if the lifelong failures that run that state could bring it on themselves to crack down on the breed of human being that just cannot be civilised? You know, who bring the behaviour that dregged the sh*thole they originated from to this civilised country? Chopping one another up is a good form of control, however.
Great to see again, that laws dreamed up by failures work so well.

Do they realise how easy it is to fabricate a 'machete'?

Maybe some human exports, is the order of the day.
My stance on gun control depends on firearm, caliber, wind, and obstacles.

No no

Apparently it's the machetes fault.

And not yet banned, but very very stern consideration.

These poor criminals are being manipulated by evil machetes

Call me barbaric but desperate times call for desperate measures. Change the law to cut off their hand, muslim style for first thug offence and execution for second offence.

!00% way to stop this behaviour.

Public order offences should be treated as the most severe crime as it impacts all.

The first person he encountered was the unarmed security guard.
None needed to die. The guard could have stopped him and tried with his bare hands. Didn't work.

Don't know if any of you guys follow Avi Yemeni from Rebel News at all, but he's a champion. he's not scared of anybody, my kind of bloke.
He sums up the problem of Victoria, Victorians and the stupid laws now just enacted... when the ones already that rightly make chopping or stabbing people illegal - yet the judges just let the imports go.
Maybe via their chambers after the trials....
