Bula Vinaka Issy,

With all those thousands of legal, come illegal, guns floating around somewhere in the community one can't be to careful, you never know whose behind the trigger. You avoided the question about the 92%, why is that, a bit of an embarrassment, ah!

As for; "it tells how the stolen guns were stored and goes on to complement licenced gun owners on their level of compliance with safe storage." SAFE STORAGE. Ah! pants on fire, you make with the funny! You've been smoking your crop me thinks. Imagine if it wasn't "safe" instead of 3,000 guns being stolen each year, it would be 30,000. Its a joke!

A Gunnie has shot a bloke dead in Ipswich, that's just west of me.

Paul,
The other 92% were mostly rifles and shotguns, as one would expect.
As the Govt. report shews most thefts were done by cutting open the safes or tearing them away from their anchorages and taking the lot, most thefts were in rural or semi-rural areas, thefts were down in urban areas.As you seem to know so much about the way in which criminals act I really think that you should assist the police.
As shooting sport activities account for only one death per year average what do you think should be done about the recreational activities that cause 190 deaths on average per year?

There you go again Issy, throwing out another red herring, trying to deflect to some other issue concerning 190 non gun related deaths. How about giving your thoughts as to where all those stolen guns in Australia end up? Anyone can stage a break in and then report the crime a month later.

A Gunnie shot a bloke in Ipswich yesterday, are you going to tell me that was the first for the year.

"A man and woman have been charged after a stolen car and firearms were located at St Marys this morning 6th July." Unfortunately it happening too often Issy. Remember that famous Chicago Gunster Al Capone, like you, Al also liked guns!

Paul,
No deflection, all the deaths were sport related, the red herring is you trying to link a deliberate crime related shooting to recreation.

Kudos Is Mise.

Ata maríe Issy,

There is a difference between a bloke falling off his skate board and meeting his end, than people like John Edwards and Ian Turnbull using gun laws to obtain legal guns and then killing innocence people. You failed to address why we need a task force if guns are not such a problem, you also fail to comment on why so many guns are "stolen" every year. You and I both know guns are a big problem in the community. I'm not saying every gunnie is doing the wrong thing, the majority are not, but the minority makes it a problem for all of us.

CM ignorance is bliss, stay ignorant.
