This concerns me....as I age I become even more cynical.

McDonald Law one:https://www.gofundme.com/
Terra Australia Legal one https://www.gofundme.com/.

Today today 1/1/26 the targets are:

McDonald Law 250k

Terra Australia Legal 60k


When they gofundme were first posted a week ago the targets were:
McDonald law 60k
Terra Australia 7k

See here re initial amounts https://youtu.be/coY0h_fffg0?si=8BLWDpXCOfn9BNAv

Sooo, why have the targets suddenly gone up? IMO targets should not have changed without explanation. Yes, sure these amounts were "initial" amounts BUT there is no mention on the sites as to why. NOTHING!

Am I missing something?

Make up your own minds.

Oh, and companies only exist for one reason.

NOTE: The McDonald logo has been changed sometime in the last week.

You can, as always, take whatever new laws and theft of your liberties as they are thrown at you, and you can keep looking for excuses to take it up the backside. Or help yourself.

As bigrich posted https://www.gofundme.com/f/mcdonald-law-taking-the-firearms-act-to-court

Or you could call or email https://mcdonaldlaw.com.au/

I emailed. No answer yet. But I imagine they have been flooded with emails.

The amounts go up. It's a gofund automatic mechanism. The main thing is the targets budgets for each stage. As per usual you need some contingency.

up to $380, 000 now . i'm gunna drop in another 100 this friday after i get paid . i watched a politics reloaded vid where the importance of this legal challenge was made abundantly clear . if we can get a positive outcome, it sets a legal precedent that could limit what the guv'ment can do in the future with regards to firearm laws and our freedoms. and they definitely don't want that . this legal challenge is the line in the sand fellas , spread the word and give what you can, or just watch as more restrictions roll in .

Well the McDonald Law one has reached the $500k goal, hopefully they can get it started soon. I believe these things can take months to get through the court system.
I also hope the legal basis for both challenges is different otherwise if one fails then the other one will be thrown out on precedent.
