About time we started charging those miserable kayakers for polluting our waterways with their presence.

Toni,

According to Paul the number of active shooters is about 400,000 which would make up a nice core of riflemen.

Where do you get the idea that most of the shooters at ANZAC are from the North Shore or that they are middle class?
The majority of the shooters that I know are working class.

Those living on the North Shore would find it more convenient to go to Hornsby, where the range is operational daily from 9am to 5pm, and from 6pm to 10.00 pm Monday to Friday,

Is Mise,

I said less than 2%, that could be just 2, you and 'Rambo' Stallone. Although at election time The Shooters and Hooters Party claims to have millions of supporters.

A question; What do you do at the range between 5pm and 6pm? Clear away the dead corpses.

And to think, I was being very conciliatory with you and Hassy on this. What do you do, try and shoot me down! i never did like Daniel Boone!

Paul,

Had you meant me and one other you'd have said less than 0.001%, I respect your accuracy!

What'd Dan'l ever do to you?

Just did a rough calculation and about 6,858,825 rounds of ammo would need to be fired to equal the amount of powder burnt at Sydney's New Years pollution event and about 8 million to equal Melbourne's.

I eagerly await the Greens next complaint about pollution from shooting and the disturbance of animals because of the noise!!

Paul,

Given the massive wastage by the labor party and Clover Moore building bike lanes that are largely unused, spending $ms on questionable art pieces and VIP parties, extending the lease to a 150yr old sporting club, that hurts nobody, should be good thing.

I speak from experience, having played squash for decades, and seeing private courts all over Sydney sold to developers and closed down, the latest being in Lane Cove.

It is no wonder that while Aus used to lead the world in Squash a few decades ago, it barely features today.
