He wouldn't have said that unless he had some indication that some aspects of the firearm’s regulations might be loosened.
I'm still hopefull of a good outcome.
Dare to dream that all involved will use the facts, information and advice bought forward during the Inquiry into law-enforcements ability to combat gun-related violence in the community.
I dont think little commie jonnie /AKA flakjack jonnie AKA the CNUT...etc...
.....could give a flying fruit cake if the laws were changed...he's cemented his name in our history as 'the gun control savior' that's all he needs, and now he travels the world reliving how he did it... AT OUR EXPENSE!!!!
The police see ALL firearms in the community as a threat, not to the rest of the community, but primarily a threat to their own safety - an OH&S issue. Therefore, as we know the police are highly biased as they have a self interest to limit the number of firearms out there. Its a lot easier to limit the legal guns - so thats the easy target!
Point is; when you leave the law-making to the police; which is exactly what they did back in 96 even though it is strictly the realm of the legislators, THEY WILL do what they want and whats in their INTEREST.
This time around however, we are ready, it wont sneak through to the keeper, we have the powerful information / communication tool at our disposal, we have firearm sympathetic + shooter representatives in the Parliament and we have several opportunities to be vocal -
- The NFI review 2015 (we can tell them what we desire in relation to gun laws AKA our will)
- COAG meeting - depending on the outcome of the review, we let them know what we think)
- Legislation - go to town on them when they take the draft laws to our state parliaments....
This is an opportunity to right the wrongs of 96, clearly demonstrate to them that their experiment in gun control failed in delivering a safer Australia as there is zero evidence to support the claims other than trends established long before 700,000 clunker single shot 22s, poppas old hammergun, and very few centrefire semiautos were legally stolen from us.
We want
#No PTAs (we are licensed to possess and use already)
#Abolish the registry (is there any evidence the knowledge of the storage location of legal guns has prevented a crime??)
#Management away from the Police depts (This bias is clearly stated "they want less guns / no guns in the community)
#Lawful transfer of firearms between lawful owners
#The separation of the criminal / violent / premeditated misuse of firearms from the minor storage infractions and other offences not involving 'criminal' activity (reports of firearm crime include everything, loose round in the tray of the ute, safe missing a dynabolt, one round left in the mag etc)
#Semi-autos back. There was zero justification to take them CRIMS WILL GET THEM NO MATTER WHAT.
#2 categories of firearms - {Category 1;yes you can have} and {Category 2; no you cant / without special approval}
#Legal protection to preserve the sport and recreation involving shooting including hunting to END the constant attacks on shooter (looking at the greentards here) I say the verbal / social media attacks on hunters should be treated just as racial / sexual pref / religious attacks.....
The greentards are constantly attacking the lawful shooters, relentlessly attacking us then claiming the gun lobby is so strong.... the difference is that THEY want something, to rid the world of guns - some of these tards are actually scared of guns and would faint if they visited a range, while the others the few at the top, know its a means to an end, take the guns away and.......so they mofos want to take something away from us; while 'we' AKA 'the gun lobby' simply want to keep doing what we do, all we want is to get them off our backs...and continue a harmless lawful cultural and historic activity Genesis9:3
Let the games begin.
