Shooting Industry Foundation of Australia: Gun lobby 'muscles up' in bid to change post-Port Arthur gun laws

https://www.abc.net.au/news/2018-10-22/new-era-gun-lobby-to-play-role-in-more-election-campaigns/103...

the SIFA is a bug that needs stomping on before they get a foothold!

putting money before comunity safety is deplorable.

australia has very good gun laws, we dont need more guns.

any 'watering down' of the laws should be fought tooth and nail.

[enigmabear]

I would suggest they find something else to wrap their hand around but many of them prolly don’t have one

My other suggestion is they move to the US and have their fix

about time, maybe the rest of us can protect ourselves from the crimanals who still seem to have guns. Lots of armed robberies still happening in the news all the time.
Must be a real shock to the way some people belive = that the bad guys don't have guns.... Lol.

There are more registered guns in Australia now than before the law changes due to Port Arther

This was covered last night on Four Corners. All politicians siding with these morons (the gun lobby) should be named and targeted at the upcoming state and federal elections. Vote them out and send a clear message. Bob Katter is a nutter by the way.

you would have to think the libs are on a suicide mission, just been thumped in a 'cant lose it' bye election and decide they want to water down the gun laws.
