So far...............
Sadly, until you're hit with a Tac/assault team; after the example set by chairman Dan, don't be surprised at what follows; a declaration of emergency powers, open-ended, Being a 'hero' right now is inviting retaliation; then where our "freedoms" be??
Agreed, Zambezi; I was pointing in the direction of the more radical protesters, if a "lawful" firearm owner was stupid enough to get involved in that scenario he could expect confiscation at least. Imagine the media running loose about that. Walk softly, and (metaphorically) carry a big stick
I will be blunt. Liberalism is a serious mental disorder.
Two key words there in this sentence. RIGHT and Privilege. If you dont understand the difference between the two, well then you need to get educated.
I'm sure US laws are more complex than I understand, agree with you on the weapons reference. I have a firearms license that is obtained from weapons licencing, was it NSW they banned the number plate WEPN because it incited violence?it would be better if an American explained the process but my daughter who lives in Albuquerque has opened my eyes to how we in Australia have no idea about the American gun laws because of how it is portrayed as being the wild west by the MSM but its not exactly open slather or free access from what l have been told, not everyone can buy or own guns
and you cannot have a lot of the guns we think you can eg... machineguns ect.. apparently
she has her gun licence as well as concealed carry that is required in many states, she could not buy or own a firearm till she became a resident
there is a lot more behind the mass shootings than free access to guns IMO
in Victoria we do not call firearms weapons because weapons are used to kill people and we are not allowed to kill people, l understand Qld does call firearms weapons
in Victoria we can have our firearms licence taken off us for a speeding ticket, you have to be a real clean skin or your privileges may be taken away in our nanny state, l suppose like you can for the anti association laws you have in Qld
United States 1Pass an instant background check that considers criminal convictions, domestic violence and immigration status. 2Buy a gun. Many states have additional buying restrictions, including waiting periods and expanded background checks.

Many Americans can buy a gun in less than an hour. In some countries, the process can take weeks or months.www.nytimes.com
Will put my foil hat on and hide in the corner so they can't take my license if I don't get a needle.
This is largely correct though as you say, much varies from state to state as to restrictions. Something to know however is that the states with the most restrictive gun laws have the most crime, counterintuitive I know but its true.it would be better if an American explained the process but my daughter who lives in Albuquerque has opened my eyes to how we in Australia have no idea about the American gun laws because of how it is portrayed as being the wild west by the MSM but its not exactly open slather or free access from what l have been told, not everyone can buy or own guns

That's the view portrayed by the US, don't wanna do it and I've got a gun and I'll use it. Don't like the election result? I've got a gun! I don't want abide government or state recommendations? I've got a gun!
Good answer, you are a divided country that gets worse by the year. I was in North Carolina when Trump was elected, saw a lot of tears on your side as everyone thought Hillary was going to win, every gun shop I looked in had people stocking up on ammo because there was going to be a revolution and the government overthrown, it was criminal, they where cheating, Mexicans where voting. Then he won and the other side started the same crybaby shit.
A gross, complete and ridiculous mischaracterization of America and gun owners, you are clueless.
But if we had more gun's we wouldn't have to go through this covid shit? More than one american has insinuated that point?
Bullshit! You didnt see anyone on our side crying before the election. Not a chance! Tears of joy afterwards maybe, but not cry baby tears beforehand, no way.
Again, horsehockey!! Name one person of note who ever said if we had more guns we wouldnt have to go thru this.
