So many 'experts', but none can show how Howard's 'gun control' could have stopped the LA murderer.

Issy and leo,

This would be an appropriate time for those two wombats, Tweedledum and Tweedlevendumer, who masquerade as the "Two Bobs" from the Shooters and Hooters Party, a bigger pair of space wasters you could not meet, they strut around the New South Wales Parliament like a pair of prized turkey's. They should attempt to introduce some Nevada style gun laws of their own into this state, Instead of continually trying to white ant existing robust gun control measures, and blocking good legislation. Then we would see what the majority think of the gunnies and what they want to inflict on the rest of us.

Steele,

You are great at making unfounded assertions; keep it up.

Assault rifles are capable of automatic fire, if a firearm is not so capable then it is not an assault rifle regardless of what anyone says; if it doesn't fit the definition then it's not an assault rifle.

Paul1405,

What about if the scurrilous ambulance-chasing Greens and other publicity hunting grubs stopped using the LA killer for headlines and encouraging copy cats in the process?

Further to the above:

"Part of the memorandum received from the Army’s Trifiletti stated: “SUBJECT: Freedom of
Information Jay H. Greenblatt & Associates “Assault Rifle”.
1. This office researched the definition of the term “assault rifle” by identifying and locating
official Department of Defense (DOD) and Department of Army (DA) publications on ordinance
technical terminology, DOD/DA technical small arms publications or definitions of military terms.
2. The definition of an “assault rifle” is “Assault rifles are short, compact, select-fire (i.e. both semiautomatic
and full-automatic) weapons that fire a cartridge intermediate in power between
submachinegun and rifle cartridges.
Selective fire is defined as a weapon, which at the user’s selection, can fire semi-automatic or fullautomatic
fire. Semi-automtic is defined as a weapon designed to fire each time the trigger is
pulled. Full automatic is defined as a weapon which will fire continuously as long as the trigger is
pulled."

One assumes that the US Army Ordnance knows what an assault rifle is.

Paul,

Why when the SF&F Party MsP tried to bring in stronger gun laws did the Greens vote against them?

If you don't know then ask your mate Shoebridge,
