Ise mise he is not doing too bad shooting thousands this year
John Howard in implementing his gun reform served this country well
And while NSW shooters and hooters, along with some federal Nats wanted that shot gun, the government said no
Suits me if one man can shoot all those thousands two could do it faster

Hi Steele,

"Should be no contest for anyone who cares about the safety of Australians."

Can't recall the heads of the NRA in America ever expressing any concerns about the safety of Australians. Gee, that mob are not concerned about the safety of Americans, forget about Australians. The Australian chapter of the NRA, the SSAA and their political wing The Shooters and Hooters Party likewise have no concern for others, its all about their members perverted pleasure.

ttbn; "How about the farmers stick to farming, and the government subsidies professional, full-time shooters" Not a bad idea.

"Wiluna pastoralist Tim Carmody has shot more than 2,500 camels since the start of this year and more than 7,000 camels and horses since his family took over Prenti Downs Station four years ago."

Issy, who's looking after the farm while this bloke is out shooting an average 5 camels and horses a day? The camels and horses must be thriving, he's up the killing rate to 8/day this year. Very suspect. BTW why did he take over the property knowing there was an extreme feral pest problem.

"particularly the theft of firearms" There is a strong suspicion that a large number of these reported "thefts" are actually licensed gun owners dealing in the black market with the criminal class. An easy way for criminals to obtain guns, and for gunnies to make a fast buck.

PAUL,

'"particularly the theft of firearms" There is a strong suspicion that a large number of these reported "thefts" are actually licensed gun owners dealing in the black market with the criminal class. An easy way for criminals to obtain guns, and for gunnies to make a fast buck."

Is that another of your Green inspired lies or do you have evidence to back it up?

From the article, it seems that poor storage is the main fault but no one seems to want to blame that.

Of course, if the penalties for illegal ownership and use of firearms were applied consecutively and not concurrently with prison sentences we might see an improvement, but that's not likely to happen.

Personally, I don't want any semi-auto guns as I already legally own some with a faster rate of fire than any semi or fully automatic firearm.
And those are category 'A' the lowest rating.

A firearm locked away according to the Law, anyone with a slingshot can overpower someone trying to get the weapon out of the safe. Get the ammo out of another safe & load it well, the bloke with slingshot would've done you over before you can aim your gun.
Firearms in the right hands aren't dangerous at all, in the hands of a crank anything can be as lethal as a gun. Some people use their bare hands to kill ! Ban hands also ?

What ?
I'd have thought the guns were stolen for the benefit of the salvation Army or some other benevolent organisation !
