Issy, how is NSW's leading gunnie and wombat killer Tony Azzie going?

Fairfax Media has obtained several confronting photos of Mr Azzi with dead animals. In one photo, he and his sales manager Nick Karagiannis, both armed with rifles, are posing over the carcass of a wombat. Another photo, shows a wombat bleeding profusely from a gunshot wound to the stomach.

Mr Azzi confirmed to Fairfax Media via email that he had "shot and killed wildlife on (his) country property".
He listed kangaroos, as animals he had shot.

"I do not shoot animals for fun and when killing them it will be done in a very human [sic] manner. I am an excellent marksman," he said.

"I am a firearm holder and I keep two firearms at the farm.

Hi there STEELEREDUX...

If I were to consider an applicant based exactly on the scenario you've provided; without doubt he'd be refused any sort of F/A licence. I understand you're referring to a Liberal Back Bencher (I think) who was seen waving a gun about threatening 'cowardly members' of the 'Green Party'. A ridiculous even juvenile thing to do, given he's an elected member of Federal Parliament?

It goes a long way to expose the mentality of some Politicians, and their fitness to hold any sort of public office of leadership in the Parliament? We all get hot under the collar, but to illustrate one's distain or displeasure at one thing or another, by the needless use of a F/A under any circumstances,as we've all seen recently - well?

Considering just a few short days ago, ordinary men, women and children were mercilessly cut down, by some utter jackass in Florida, who just happened to get his hands on an assault rifle of some sort? Well there's nobody anywhere, who can legitimately justify the possession of a F/A under these circumstances. RIP these innocent souls.

Issy, given that you are happy for lunatic wannabe cowboys to hold a gun licence, and you support for that total f'wit George Christensen, who presented a photograph of himself holding a gun with a caption “DO YOU FEEL LUCKY, GREENIE PUNKS?". This clearly show that Christensen intention is either to attempt to kill people, or have others attempt to do so. Since the publication of this utter rubbish by the grub, Greens Senator Sarah Hanson-Young has received a number of death threats. On another thread you said you support Christensen.

Do you still support that mongrel?

Paul,

I didn't say that I supported Christensen, I said that he was a mug but preferable to Abdel-Magied, so get your facts straight.

Where have I said that I am " ... happy for lunatic wannabe cowboys to hold a gun licence,"?

If you are referring to the Western Action discipline then you are denigrating law abiding, hard working fellow Australians who have been recognized by the State, via the Commissioner of Police, as members of the community who enjoy the trust of said authorities.

Were you knocked back for a Firearms Licence?

As o sung wu said, not everyone comes up to the mark.

The "lunatic wannabe cowboys" don't need a licence to own a gun; they are never going to apply for a licence; they can get firearms from the underworld. But the 8% Greens gutlessly go for the larger than life public figures and harmless buffoons. Comrade di Nasty wets his panties as he rushes to 'report' George to the AFP, like the nasty little school boy and coppers' nark that he is. It is understood that the AFP, who had actually seen the incident for themselves, politely told di Nasty to bugger off, as they had better things to do - possibly checking to see if di Nasty is still ripping off his domestic help.

'morning to you IS MISE...

To clear up a point - from a licensing perspective, an applicant who wishes to join a well run club/organisation like the S/A, Western Action Shooters Club. Is more preferable, than an applicant who cites his reason is to hunt, with the same category of weapon. The chances of a S/A Handgun Lic. being approved, on 'hunting grounds alone', would in my experience, be quite unusual, as you'd be aware.

An example, a Sgt. colleague of mine, a keen handgun shooter and well known for his H/G expertise, was denied a licence to hunt/ eradicate feral Pigs on a large property near Moree in NSW. He presently shot 'steel' with his currently licensed S&W mod 29 in .44mag. He asked that the scope of his .44mag licence, be extended to that of hunting. And as I said, it was denied on appeal? Licensing Police must dance to the very same tune, of the State's Legislator's just like anyone else, irrespective of what private and well founded opinions they themselves might hold?

As you well know IS MISE when it comes to 'guns' post 'Port Arthur'; many of our political leaders tend to break out in a 'cold sweat'; all the while that fat maggot Martin BRYANT, who is still very much securely ensconced in Risdon Prison, continues to gorge himself with chocolate, from whoever and wherever he gets it from? His personal hygiene is almost non-existent, only undertaken when the Warder's order that he's mandatorily washed and scrubbed, by other prisoners, who gain some small privileges for cleaning this bloke up.

He's so thoroughly debauched, he's utterly vilified in Gaol, both hated and loathed in equal measure by all those serving time around him. He's not fit to breathe the same air, such is his levels of depravity, 'even while he's been in gaol', according to other inmates in the Risdon Prison. Don't be too surprised if you hear he's dead. Albeit he's made several attempts at suicide by his own hand. All he does is sleep and eat (chocolate) no work, nor exercise.
