Shooters under attack in Australia

[Doug Hamilton]

They don't think; thought not required. Which is why smart people are not in politics/government. They use an event to justify a policy. That policy is to disarm.

Yeah. I kind of knew that. The idiocy of the Left knows no.limits.

 

[Sarg]

I’ve said it before & I’ll say it again !

 

[Surgeon1]

This is rapidly becoming a world that I no longer recognize and one that will end badly! Crack down on legal gun ownership and only those with evil in their thoughts and actions will prevail!

 

[leslie hetrick]

You are going to have to find a way to teach the real dangers of disarmament to the population. Publish a list of the casualties in Russia, Hitler's Germany, China, Cambodia, heck--even Yugoslavia after the people were disarmed. Post the meme of the box full of wedding rings with the caption, "Before they took the rings, they first took the guns."

the jews in the warsal getto put up a good fight with very few firearms, not stopping the trains to the death camps, but slowing them down for a while.

The politicians should focus on stopping the global infantada and stop taking away right from their citizens. Stop importing 3rd world nations and then being surprised with the results.

So they rounded up a bunch of radicals ...then let them go .....

Australia announced gun buyback scheme in wake of Bondi attack

It is the largest scheme since the Port Arthur massacre in 1996, which prompted massive gun law reform.

This is the consequence of letting the Government “nose under the tent”

First they tax you into submission, then switch all critical services to government operated.

Once they own your healthcare and other critical services. You are less likely to openly rebel. Too much to lose.

The days of a majority of true patriots willing to risk everything they own are over. The government quickly shows what happens to individuals that step out of line.

The Australia is visited in 1980 is long gone. Never to return.

Whilst I deplore the recent shootings at a Jewish festival at Bondi beach and condemn this act of violence against these or any other people's I deplore the NSW government reaction to legal and licenced gun owner as well.
This act was a terrorist attack and the politicians are saying it's not a gun issue but a terrorist issue.
Despite this they are out to tighten gun control even further to law abiding citizens.
This will limit the amount of guns we can own to 4 .
Lever relt, straight pull and some other types will become Cat C making them almost impossible to own. This even includes the blazer R8.

The stupidity of our government has to be heard to be believed.
They are going to outlaw high capacity belt fed rifles and shotguns. We as hunters and shooters have NEVER BEEN ALLOWED to own belt fed weapons but idiot Joe public doesn't know this and applauds the government decision and will feel safer .
This is another knee jerk reaction by our stupid govt to limit gun ownership because of a terrorist attack.
For more details on our government stupidity you can google the new proposed laws.

My sympathy and the sympathy of all Australian shooters goes out to the families of those killed and injured in this terrible TERRORIST ATTACK.
I will finish by reiterating what some of our saner political people have said. This WAS NOTa gun problem it was a terror problem.
I just hope our shooters fishers and farmers party can reign in some of this government proposed stupidity.

That is horrible news.

I don't follow Australian politics at all. Do gun owners have any political pull at all? Are there political parties against this silliness or are Aussie gun owners just screwed?

 

[uplander01]

I feel for you fellas in Australia. Once you lose rights, you'll never get them back. Fact is, the governments of the world, want you to be defenseless and helpless, they want control and dependence.

 

[steve white]

I’m still reeling from…it looks like the Blaser R8 is in a category reserved only for farmers and professional shooters.

Hard to believe that I grew up shooting M14’s and L1A1’s. No license required back then.

Fuck!

Why shouldn't your government think they can just take your guns with the stroke of a pen? You've allowed them to do it on a massive scale in the past--in fact, in your lifetime. Mad enough yet to say NO!? I'm not just talking when I say the government BETTER never come to OUR doors and demand it.

I can't even post enough loves for what you just said!

 

[CJW]

Sometimes people just need to learn to say NO MORE!

 

[Muskox]

what did that asshole use to kill those people at Bondi?

Nearly the entirety of The West is doing the same thing regards the importation of the 3rd world. Coincidence? We’ve had a temporary reprieve here in the US but it will resume when the leftists regain power.

How many European, American, Canadian, Australian, etc. left-wing leaders have you heard call for a shift away from bringing in these people, regardless what happens? The political Left leadership are not surprised by the results. They are a feature, not a bug.

 

[roklok]

what did that asshole use to kill those people at Bondi?

Looked like a Beretta BRX1 straight pull and a shotgun of some sort.

 

[Sideshow]

We are pretty much fucked !!!!
This has been the worst week of my life, it so hard to believe that some wanker politician from the city and knows nothing about firearms is going to potentially ruin all us law abiding citizens lives !!!!!
When we all know the reason this happened was because they didn’t take firearms of a ISIS supporting Muslim who was being watched by our Intelligence agencies!!!!!

Sounds exactly like what happened in nz authorities didn’t do there bloody job and the law abiding citizens pay for it with shit moves and stupid policy’s! Really feel for you guys know pretty well how you feel having gone through it in NZ.

Astounding, disgusting, assinine action by politicians BUT who put them in that position? The not so bright public by voting them in. You(they) wanted it, voted for it, got it. Now you (they) have to shut up and live with it. Hopefully next time people will wise up and vote intelligently.

 

[rdog]

This gun restriction has nothing to do with stopping a another Islamic attack, its the left wing government best opportunity to implement their long term goal on disarming the people & the stupid people think they are being protected , we have a lot of stupid people in Australia the woke left breads them. i despise the current Federal government. You Yanks should be glad you have Trump.

 

[Vinootz]

When I saw the breaking news here in the US I immediately said to my wife “ the law abiding Aussies are going to lose more of their guns”. The crown never wants you poor folks to own firearms. If it weren’t for the second Amendment Americans wouldn’t own guns. There are plenty of people here who would love nothing more than to take most of our guns and subject us to many rules. Right now gun owners have been gaining some ground. But the anti gunners will never stop imposing restrictions on them. Down under they are horribly blatant . May be time for citizens of Australia and New Zealand to get organized and push back. Turn it into a movement . Otherwise it’s only a few more shootings before none of you will own any.
